Invitation wording is largely based on who is hosting the event. After the "request lines" at the top, don't forget important details like the correct date, time and location of ceremony and reception or event. If there is a large time lapse between ceremony and reception, we recommend a separate reception card that bears that information.
The following examples relate to who is hosting the wedding.
