Basically, the traditional invitation is worded like this: (all text is centered Mr. and Mrs. John Smith request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Jennifer Marie (just first and middle name) to Thomas Gordon Jones Saturday, the eighth of March two thousand fourteen at two o'clock in the afternoon (the time is always written out like this) St. Patricks Church 206 Montague Court Denver, Colorado This is for a more formal invitation. There are many other formats out there. Go online and and look at the samples or visit your local invitation store. When choosing the font, think of who will be reading it. The really fancy, swirly fonts are beautiful, but almost impossible to read by those with poorer eye sight. Think of your grand parent or great aunt. Could they be able to read the invitation? If the answer is 'no', the find something that is pretty, and easier to read. Another thing: Order you invitations about six months in advance. They may take a couple weeks to get printed and then there's the assembling and addressing time. You want to give your guests plenty of time to plan for the wedding as well. Good luck.<br><b>References : </b><br>Many years of selling invitations. I used to work in an invitation store and that was one of the things the bride worried about the most.
