Just the plain...Amanda and Zach request the presense at their wedding......etc etc

I might be walking down the aisle to 'all I ask of you ' #4.

You have to do whats right for you, so do what YOU love.

I am not a fan of all the different kind of wording for invites, but that does not mean YOU are not a fan!

I would go with #5. I have my invites in an album so you can see mine.

Also MAKE SURE you are aware of 'proper' wording. You only use 'Honour of your presence' if you are getting married in a house of worship.

It does not mean you cant use it!!! But invite wording etiquette is 'honour of your...' for a house of worship.

I did NOT know that when ordering invites. found out when we sat down with the people doing the invites.

This is the way to do it if you are going with the #5 'simple' way...it can be any variation of what you have above. But if you choose 'simple' see below.

Invite wording



Step 2: The Request
The next line in a wedding invitation is the one that requests that your guests attend.
If your ceremony is at a place of worship, then the line should read:

Request the honour of your presence
at the marriage of their daughter

Note the formal British spelling of the word 'honor.' The word daughter is used as an example and should be the gender of the person whose parents are hosting. If, on the other hand your ceremony is at home or other secular location, then the line should read:

Request the pleasure of your company
at the marriage of their daughter

or

would be delighted for you to attend
the marriage of their daughter

If the couple is hosting:

invite you to join us at the celebration of our marriage

I like the 1st one best. It's simple but not 'plain.'
