Planning the wording

  • Say who's hosting. The couple, their children, or friends: it changes the voice of the whole invitation.
  • Name the year. "Our 25th" tells guests how big a celebration to expect.
  • Add the order of events. A puja, a cake-cutting or a vow renewal each need a time.
  • Add a photo. A wedding picture beside a recent one is the most loved detail on anniversary invites.
  • Keep it short. Names, the year, the date, the venue and one warm line.

Before you send

  • The number of years checked against the wedding date
  • Hosts named: the couple or the children
  • Date, time, venue and order of events
  • RSVP date for the caterer

Lines for a vow renewal

  • After [number] years, we'd like to say "I do" again, with you as our witnesses.
  • Please join us as we renew our wedding vows on [Date], followed by dinner.
  • A small ceremony to renew our promises, and a big dinner to celebrate them. [Date].

A vow renewal is becoming a popular part of 25th and 50th anniversaries. If you're holding one, give it its own time in the invitation, so guests arrive in time for the ceremony and not only for dinner.

Frequently asked questions
