Helpful Wording Guides

Choosing the wording for your wedding invitations and stationery can be a difficult task. To help make this a little easier we have put together a collection of wording guides on these pages. We have included suggestions for engagement invitations, wedding invitations, thank you cards, gift registry cards, wishing well cards, baby thank you cards, christening invitations and party invitations.

The wording here is a guide only and you are more than welcome to supply us with your own text. You can also find some alternative wordings used on the samples of designs across our website.
