What is the wedding etiquette for invitations?

Keep It Simple Wedding invitations should include the full names of the couple getting married, those of the hosts (if they’re different), and the place and time of the ceremony—that’s it. These invites, by Epoch Designs, do just that.

How do you respond to a marriage invitation?

Does the man’s name go first on a wedding invitation?

The name of the bride always precedes the groom’s name. Formal invitations issued by the bride’s parents refer to her by her first and middle names, the groom by his full name and title; if the couple is hosting by themselves, their titles are optional.

What are some wedding gift etiquette rules you should know?

To make sure your gift-giving habits are in-line with today’s customs, here are some wedding gift etiquette rules you should know. Invitations are not invoices. Contrary to what people might tell you about wedding gift etiquette, you are not required to give a gift to every single wedding you are invited to—especially if you’re not attending.

Is it rude to ask if someone is invited to a wedding?

It’s considered rude and can lead to an awkward conversation about the wedding party’s finances. (Perhaps they can only afford to host a more limited number of guests at their big day!) It is, however, acceptable to reach out to the couple and ask them for clarification about whether or not you are invited with a guest.

Can you bring a gift to a wedding reception but not the wedding?

If you receive an invitation to the wedding reception but not the wedding, don’t assume you just got the invitation so the couple could receive another gift. Nevertheless, some guests wonder about gift-giving etiquette in this situation.

Should you bring a date on your wedding invitations?

Decide where you’ll draw the line —for example, only married or engaged couples can bring a date—and stick to it, no matter what. Then, when you send out invitations, make sure the addressing is clear.
