WaWies and Their Wedding Invitations (Part 1)

[cs_content][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]Your wedding invitations give your guests a glimpse of what your wedding theme is going to be. First impressions last. Therefore, you have to choose the wedding invitation that best fits the style you are going for.

There are several things to consider when choosing your wedding invitations, including the theme, the wording, and the supplier. Below, we share some photos of wedding invitations that some of our WaWies have chosen and/or designed for their own weddings. We hope these will inspire you to create one that’s perfect for your own special day.[/cs_text][/cs_column][/cs_row][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/2″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text style=”margin-top:20%;margin-bottom:50%;”]

WaW Wedding Tip Sheet: Invitations

[cs_content][cs_section parallax=”false” style=”margin: 0px;padding: 45px 0px;”][cs_row inner_container=”true” marginless_columns=”false” style=”margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;”][cs_column fade=”false” fade_animation=”in” fade_animation_offset=”45px” fade_duration=”750″ type=”1/1″ style=”padding: 0px;”][cs_text]We’ve been receiving inquiries regarding the preparation of invitations; thus, we thought of writing a blog post regarding the essentials.

Top 10 things you need to remember when writing and addressing your wedding invitations:

  1. Choose your invitation supplier based on the kind of invitation you like. Do not book anyone blindly then force them to come up with what you like — they may not have the equipment and you will end up forfeiting your down payment. Have a vision first regarding what you like, then book the supplier based on the said vision.
  2. Start conversing with your invitation supplier regarding the design (assuming you’re not choosing from a template), 6 to 8 months before you intend to release it, i.e. 1 to 2 months prior to your big day. Some opt for the 2-month mark so they don’t need to spend too much on sending invitations abroad via courier. Why am I giving such a wide margin? Because the design process can take long. Revisions can also take time. If you will choose a template from the library of the invitation supplier, you may lessen the time frame to around 3 months prior to your preferred distribution date. This makes room for printing queues and the like.
  3. While you are designing or even before you start conversing with your invitation supplier, especially if you’re choosing a template, get all full names and titles of your principal sponsors and your entourage. Make sure everything is correct and complete so you don’t need to ask your invitation supplier to revise because you wrote Mr. instead of Dr. or you chose to remove all titles but you eventually realized someone might get angry with the removal of the title. So much has been spent by so many couples on their invitations because of the need to reprint.

Tricky point: What if you’re inviting a mayor to be your godparent and your wedding date happens to be after elections? What if he loses? What if he wins but for a different position?

Response: Just write Hon. (short for Honorable) beside his name. That way, you won’t have to worry about whether or not he would win or change his position.

  1. After you get your first printout/draft printout, make sure you scrutinize everything — every letter of every name. Also, show it to your parents so if they have reactions, it won’t cost much to revise. It will cost a lot if you will show them the already-printed batch of invites and they have concerns which will cause you to reprint.

Possible concerns:

a. wrong spelling/wrong title

b. they also invited other possible godparents or entourage members without telling you in advance

c. you forgot to include your parents’ names or their appropriate titles

Note: Some invite makers will ask you to sign a form that you read all the items of the invite and you agree that it should be the version that gets printed. Make sure you really read all words included in the invite. That way, no problem will arise later on when you get the whole batch of printouts.

  1. How do you write your parents’ names?

The most common way of presenting the names would be this way:

With the blessings of

Names of Groom’s Parents (Jose and Maria Cruz)

and

Names of Bride’s Parents (Andres and Susan Santos)

You may also use the following in case one of the parents has passed on. Please do not forget to put a small cross beside the name of the deceased parent.

Juan

son of Jose (+) and Sita Cruz

and

Maria

daughter of Rene and Lilia Santos

  1. Should the groom’s name come first? Or should the bride’s name come first?

It should be the groom’s name that should come first, as per tradition here in Asia.

To continue from the example earlier:

With the blessings of our parents

(state their names)

We

John and Mary

request the honour* of your presence

as we consecrate our union

through the Sacrament of Matrimony

on

the first of June two thousand and seventeen*

at half past three in the afternoon*

in the Church of the Child Jesus,

111 Aguirre Avenue, Paranaque City

Reception follows at (venue)

Street, City

If one parent is deceased:

Juan

son of Jose (+) and Sita Cruz

and

Maria

daughter of Rene and Lilia Santos

request the honour of your presence

as they consecrate their union

through the Sacrament of Matrimony…

Note:

a. The items with asterisk (*): spelling out dates and time slots are necessary for formal invitations. It is also necessary to use “honour” instead of the usual American spelling, “honor”.

b. It is acceptable to write a thirty-minute leeway for the time of ceremony. It gives everyone time to sit down, to line up, to get hold of the items needed (bouquets, paraphernalia). It is not very good to write a one-hour leeway, because it would mean a long wait for guests who come in punctually. We do not want to punish them for being one time.

c. You may write a reception time if you’re observing what is termed as broken time, i.e. a ceremony at 1PM then a reception at 6PM

  1. How should we write the godparents’ names? Is it necessary to include titles?

Yes, you should include each person’s specific title. This is applicable to parents and godparents. They worked hard to have these titles; thus, we should give their hard work due recognition.

For political titles, you may use “Hon.” short for “Honorable” if you’re not sure of the title (given the period of elections during your printing of invitations). You may also use the same title for those who with long titles stating their positions in government.

Please note:

You should visit your prospective godparent before you write his/her name on the invitation. Each one should have the prerogative to say yes or no to your invitation for him or her to be godparent. Also, you must get the full name and title he/she wishes to use. Do not assume to know the full name and title. Once you make a mistake, you will risk offending someone who is supposed to be your second parent.

  1. How about the entourage?

The entourage usually consist of people who are close to the couple. However, since the invitation is a formal document, I would still suggest having their titles there. You may have an agreement with them not to say their titles anymore during the reception introduction because you’d like it to be informal or you’d like to have a dancing type of entrance.

*Note: If there are people with no specific titles, you may write “Mr.” or “Ms.” (the latter can be used even for married individuals).

Example:

Mr. Juan dela Cruz

Atty. Leandro Vergara

Engr. Mario Hernandez

  1. How about the RSVP card?

You can include the following items:

a. RSVP Part

To reserve _____ seat/s, please send your name/s to our coordinator on or before (2 weeks prior to the big day). Should you wish to express your regrets, we would appreciate a message as well.

Name of Coordinator, Contact Details (number and e-mail address)

b. Attire Part

Strictly Formal

*This notation is usually enough to convey that males need to wear suits/barongs and females need to wear long gowns.

However, it’s a good idea to spell out attire options or add a card with illustrations especially if the venue calls for certain clothing or footwear.

c. Map Part

This one needs an illustration and if the venue is a bit hard to find, you may add written instructions with landmarks.

d. How about the children?

You may use this poem if you wish to ask people to leave the kids at home. I wrote this for one of my brides.

We want you to enjoy the night;

Give kids time to sleep tight.

We thought it’s but right,

To make this a “for adults” invite.

e. How about monetary gifts?

It’s better to avoid asking for an enveloped gift directly, i.e. you may just state “The couple will reside abroad.” or “The couple will continue to reside abroad.” to give the hint that you would find it difficult to carry boxes of gifts.

10) How does one address invites?

You may follow this format: Mr. and Mrs. Jose and Maria Cruz

Their titles should be used in case they have those.

Examples:

Mayor and Mrs. Albert and Julia Cruz

Attorneys John and Micaela dela Cruz

Doctors Bryan and Bianca Santos

Mr. and Engr. Leo and Tess Vargas**

Mr. and Dr. Rene and Lilia Santos**

Even if the main invitee is the godmother, you will still need to use the format earlier, i.e. Mr. and Mrs. Marco and Lea Atanacio.

Note: In the part with two asterisks (**), the wives have specific titles.

Will you invite your Ex to your wedding?

Do you or do you not invite your ex to your wedding?

For some people, no comes easy since their ties with their exes had been severed ages ago, but the situation may be a bit more complicated for others.

For instance, there is a love child involved or the so-called ex is your fiancé’s close relative.

We sorted through the WaWies’ answers and here are some of their insights:

A Big NO

Many of the WaWies said no for practical reasons, while others gave more thoughtful answers .

“No. I prefer not to invite him since hindi naman kami close and hindi rin sila close in H2B,” says Jennifer. “I know H2B and his family will not like to see him on our big day. It will be our big day so I would rather not include my ex on our celebration.”

She points out, “my H2B did not invite his ex too. We would like to minimize the number of our guests so we would rather give the slot to a person close and important to the both of us.”

Kimi answers, “No. Out of respect for my husband.” Then adds, “parang weird din kasi, haha. Wala rin naman kami masyadong contact ni ex and wala rin akong in-invite na College friends (naging kami nung College kasi).”

Raquel goes, “No for both of us. We had both moved on from our exes who were and are no longer part of our lives.”

“We both agreed not to invite exes and their families kasi it would sound like planning to remain friends with the ex,” thinks Ann. “And for sure hindi naman namin maaalala ang absence in ex sa wedding, but the other would surely remember the ex’s presence.”

Ann actually had a more sensitive reason for not inviting her fiance’s ex. “Muntik pa siya maging dahilan para magkasala si boyfriend sa akin noon!”

A Bigger NO

Which brings us to why inviting the ex is not an option for our other WaWies.

“Nope. Si hubby kasi ang reason kung bakit kami nag-break ni ex…and hindi pa rin ako ina-add ni ex sa FB…hahaha…medyo bitter lang,” admits Tine.

“No,” says Rose. “I’m friends with my exes, but hubby is not with his. ‘Yung isa, inaway pa talaga ako before, hahaha! We agreed na lang to be fair, we will not invite any of them.”

“Hindi, hehe,” Len says. “Third party namin ni ex yung napangasawa niya, kaya awkward naman.” She continues, “saka not in good terms kami ni ex.”

“A big NO,” Lyn laughs. “All hell will break loose kapag in-invite niya ang ex niya, haha!”

Yes to the Ex

Some of our other WaWies don’t see any problem inviting their exes to their wedding.

“Yes, I invited my ex sa wedding namin kasi isang barkada lang and married na rin naman siya nun, so keri na lang sa akin,” Ivy explains.

Dhaey took it step further, “Yes, we invited our exes sa wedding. Sa katunayan, isa sa kanila kumanta sa bridal march ko, then yung isang ex ko naman, mom niya ninang naming sa kasal.”

“One of his exes, yes,” volunteers Yana. “Kasi high school barkada niya ‘yun saka malapit naman kami, so no problem.”

Jessa, too, was okay with inviting her fiancé’s ex. “I invited my fiance’s ex. She’s happily married na with a kid. I invited her because she was nice naman and she helped us book our hotel.” She adds, “she’s based in the US, I don’t think she’ll fly back home just to attend our wedding.”

Talk it over with your fiancé/fiancée

While there may be pressure from other people or situations to invite an ex, ultimately, the decision should only be between the bride and the groom.

If there are no issues involved, when you bear no ill feeling towards the ex; or when the ex is not seen as an ex but a friend; when both of you feel good about having the person around on your big day, then there shouldn’t be any problem inviting him or her.

Krystle agrees, “I invited my first ex kasi his sister is my best friend and one of my bridesmaids, plus his parents are my ninong and ninang. Super good terms kami pati ni hubby, so no problem there.”

However, if the only reason is that the ex is part of the barkada and will be the only one left out of the list, it is important to consult your fiancé/fiancée first, after all, you don’t want to make the other uncomfortable because of an unwanted guest in your party.

As Benz puts it, “what better statement to your partner that his or her comfort is above any friend’s feelings!”
