Whether economic times are good or not-so-good, many brides want to plan their own wedding day. No wedding planner knows better than the bride herself what her hopes and dreams are for her special once-in-a-lifetime day. For many, a wedding would not be a wedding without as many family members and friends as can possibly attend. The wedding invitation, therefore, is one of the more important elements among the many details that are involved in planning your wedding.

As the bride-to-be, you may be wondering exactly what word you should use on the invitations. You can use a formal or traditional format for your wedding reception invitation wording. Your invitations should match your wedding style. If you are having an outdoor wedding, for instance, and you plan to eat outdoors picnic style, sometimes under a tent, then you will want your invitations to be more casual. If, however, you will have a formal wedding in church with ten bridesmaids, you will use more formal words on your invitations.

Decide first if you are inviting everyone to the wedding itself, or just to the reception. The first lines on the invitation should state clearly who is being invited and to what event. Some brides would rather not have children attend the wedding, for instance. If you want couples with children to attend, perhaps you could make arrangement for babysitters to keep the children in a separate area during the actual wedding, and join you for the reception. If this is the case, include it in your wedding reception invitation word.

Decide who is announcing the event. In the past, the parents typically invited guests to attend the wedding of their children. Today, many couples gather the wedding and reception themselves, in which case you can just state "John Doe and Mary Smith request your presence" … etc., then giving the date and time. Include driving instructions on a separate paper for out of town guests who may not be familiar with the area.

Many free online sites are available to download and customize wedding and reception invitations, for printing out and mailing or emailing to your guest list. You can find styles that reflect your personality and wedding theme. With a little research, you will find examples of wedding reception invitation word for inspiration and you can use your creativity to give it your own personal touch, whether you want it to be formal, or you just write what is in your heart. Above all, avoid stressing over this delightful task and have fun making a wonderful memory.
