Wedding words, minus the blank page

Stuck on what to write in the wedding card?

It happens. Start with a message that fits the relationship, then make it sound like you.

03

Find your situation

Short, funny, best friend or coworker. Go straight to the guidance you need.

Choose a guide

One true detail beats three extra adjectives.

A familiar wedding wish is not wrong. It is simply unfinished. Add one thing you genuinely notice about the couple and it starts to sound like it came from you.

Personalize a message

A safe first draft

Congratulations on your wedding. Wishing you a lifetime of love and happiness.

Add one thing you really notice

More like you

Congratulations, [Couple's names]. The care you show each other is easy to see. Wishing you plenty of slow Sundays and good surprises.

Start with an actual message.

Pick the closest fit, copy it and change one detail. A useful starting point should get you moving, not give you six more decisions to make.

Warm

Congratulations to you both. Wishing you a life full of steady love and plenty of happy ordinary days.

Some cards need more specific help.

The relationship, the amount of room and the kind of joke you are considering can all change the answer. Choose the problem that looks most like yours.

Three parts. Your words.

There is no secret wedding-card language. There is just a clear way to begin.

  1. 01

    Name the moment

    Open with congratulations and speak to both people when you can.

  2. 02

    Add something true

    Mention a quality, memory or small detail that belongs to them.

  3. 03

    Send them forward

    Finish with a hope that sounds natural coming from you.
