Quick answer
Put the guest essentials first: names, date, place and how to RSVP. Then add the information that prevents messages later — schedule, dress code, travel, children, plus-ones, registry and common questions.
Wedding website welcome wording
Your welcome message should do more than say hello. A guest should be able to skim it and immediately know whose wedding this is, when it is and where it is happening.
We’re getting married! We can’t wait to celebrate with you on [date] at [venue]. You’ll find the schedule, travel details, FAQs and RSVP here.
We request the pleasure of your company as we celebrate our marriage on [date] at [venue]. Please find the day’s details and RSVP information below.
[Names] are getting married on [date] at [venue]. Everything you need for the day — including RSVP — is here.
Wedding website RSVP wording
Do not hide the deadline in a paragraph. Put it next to the RSVP action, and tell guests what information they will need to provide.
Please RSVP by [deadline]. Let us know whether you can join us and include any dietary requirements when you reply.
We’d love to know whether we’ll be celebrating with you. Please send your RSVP by [deadline] so we can finalise the day with our venue.
How to word an adults-only wedding
Keep the wording clear and neutral. Avoid lengthy explanations that invite negotiation.
We love your little ones, but we are keeping the celebration adults-only unless your invitation specifically includes your children. Thank you for helping us plan the day.
Adults-only celebration, unless your invitation says otherwise.
Plus-one wording
If your invitation includes a plus-one, you’ll be able to add them when you RSVP. Otherwise, please RSVP for the guests named on your invitation.
Dress code wording
Use a recognisable dress-code label first, then one useful sentence if needed.
Garden formal. Think polished but comfortable for an outdoor celebration; block heels or flats are a good choice for the lawn.
Black tie. Formal evening wear is encouraged.
Registry and gift wording
Having you celebrate with us is more than enough. If you would still like to give a gift, we have added our registry details here.
Your presence is the best gift. For those who have asked, we have created a honeymoon fund to help us make a few memories after the wedding.
Travel and accommodation wording
