Lots of modern couples are breaking away from wedding traditions and choosing to celebrate marriage in their own way. One way you can do this is through informal wedding invitations. Here are some ideas on how to write your own relaxed, unique wedding invites.
While this style of invitation can really contain anything you want, it's important to still remember the key details! However you choose to write the wording, you'll need to include the names of happy couple, the host(s), the venues, and the date and time! You should also add RSVP details and any other important things, such as a dress code if you're having one.
A great and simple way to make your invitations feel informal is to keep things fun. Adding a line about the reception can achieve this, such as a comment on the food and dancing to come. For example:
Nicola & James are tying the knot!
Please join us to celebrate our marriage
On 14th September, 2022 at half past two
at St. Mary's Church, Bridgnorth
Followed by a night of fun, food, and festivities
at Patshull Park Hotel, Pattingham
Featured Design: 'Lemon Citrus - Tri Fold'
You could also add little jokes into your wording, such as:
Come for the wedding, stay for the party!
Nicola & James invite you to celebrate their marriage
On 14th September, 2022 at half past two
at St. Mary's Church, Bridgnorth
Followed by an evening reception
at Patshull Park Hotel, Pattingham
Get ready for good food, good times, and embarrassing dancing!
Informal wedding invites can be all about you! Your invite will feel so unique if you include something cute or heartwarming about your relationship in the wording. In addition, try to put things into your own words - this will definitely put your stamp on it:
We're taking the plunge!
Nicola & James would love you to celebrate their marriage
On 14th September, 2022 at half past two
at St. Mary's Church, Bridgnorth
With dinner and dancing to follow
at Patshull Park Hotel, Pattingham
We can't wait to see you there!

If you aren't looking for quirky wording, but feel like traditional examples don't fit you, then just keep it simple! Just remember to include the main details; then the rest can be put into your own words. We think this style looks amazing when paired with a striking invitation, because you can let the design do the talking for you!
Together with their families
Nicola & James invite you to their wedding
On 14th September, 2022 at half past two
at St. Mary's Church, Bridgnorth
Then please join us for a reception
