The Hand Written Wedding Invitation
by Emily Post
The HAND Written Wedding Invitation
If a wedding is to be so small that no invitations are engraved, the notes
of invitation should be personally written by the bride:
Sally Dear:
Our wedding is to be on Thursday the tenth at half-past twelve,
Christ Church Chantry. Of course we want you and Jack and the
children! And we want all of you to come afterward to Aunt
Mary's, for a bite to eat and to wish us luck.
Affectionately,
Helen.
or
Dear Mrs. Kindhart:
Dick and I are to be married at Christ Church Chantry at noon on
Thursday the tenth. We both want you and Mr. Kindhart to come to
the church and afterward for a very small breakfast to my
Aunt's—Mrs. Slade—at Two Park Avenue.
With much love from us both, Affectionately,
Helen.
Special
thanks to Emily Post on her wonderful tips on
etiquette and invites.
