Wedding
Invitations :
Bride and groom's
parents hosting |
|
|
|
Considering the
hundreds of decisions you will make before your
wedding day, what could be more tempting than to
let your invitations essentially write
themselves?
Even if you
intend to compose your own wording, it's
important to understand wedding protocol before
you deviate. Traditional invitations are formal,
both in phrasing and format -- line breaks
instead of commas, numbers, dates, and times
spelled out. British wording and spelling are
also commonly used ("half after seven o'clock"
and "the favour of your reply is requested").
Here is
some
Bride and Groom's parents hosting
example
