Singapore Wedding Cards for Your Guests

Now, if you want to get married on the beach at a hotel, and then holding the reception inside, you won’t need an invitation for the wedding and the reception each. You can simply put “Reception to follow” right below of the wedding invitation. Ushers will be leading them to the venue of the reception later, which means that you must make sure they know the way there.

You’ve got a nice friend who’s helped you in the past and is now getting married, and you’re happy for them. Now, they want your help to co-ordinate the wedding and to word the invitations. Both the bride and groom want to honour their parents, but unfortunately, the bride’s mother has passed away. However, she cannot do that as the invitations must only be issued by those who are hosting the wedding.

Thus, you might want to give her some suggestions to write a tribute to her Mother which will be included in the ceremony program. You can also suggest her to play some of her Mother’s favourite songs, which might at the same time entertain the guests too. However, make sure that the bride will not cry the whole day. Remember, this is a wedding, not a funeral. Anyway, if she insists, try to stop her by explaining that the guests might feel awkward if her Mother’s name is put on the invitation. If her Father is still alive, then you can honour her parents by writing the bride’s and groom’s names first, then “together with their parents”. Your guests will feel more comfortable as her Mother’s name will not be listed, even though she’s still honoured.

Everyone has friends, and friends don’t want to feel left out. Friends are there when you need help; friends are always there for you. Similarly, friends are also able to help you at your wedding.

Let’s say your partner was born and raised in a village a few thousand miles away. He has many childhood friends that are still residing in that area. You’re worried that if you don’t invite all of them, it might not be a good gesture. If you’re really worrying about that, my advice to you is to invite all of them. It doesn’t matter if they don’t have the ability to attend your wedding. I’m sure that once they receive the wedding invitations, they would already feel your sincerity. If you want to be more sincere, no problem! You can, at a later time, hold a wedding reception at your partner’s hometown.

Speaking of holding receptions, if you want to hold a formal Saturday afternoon reception with full dinner and cocktail hour, you might want to inform your guests that they will have to be in formal attire. But how should you do it? You won’t possibly have time to call all of your guests. Don’t fret; use invitations that are designed ultra-formally so that your guests will know what you mean. If you send them a formal invitation, there will be a high chance of them dressing formally for your wedding.
