Before you say “I do,” there are some other important words you’ll have think about for your wedding – the ones you write for your wedding invitations and wedding program.

A custom invitation gets your guests excited and lets them know your special day is going to be anything but ordinary. Coming up with original wording that’s just right for your invitations and program makes your wedding extra special and meaningful. It also helps set the mood for your ceremony and reception.

Personalizing your invitations and program and making them memorable is easy, whether you’re looking for very traditional wording or more modern wording. Of course, the cardstock, color, shape and size of your invitations and program also help set the mood for your wedding.

You’re cordially invited…
The wording of your invitations will set the tone for the type of event you are planning. Do you want to be formal, casual, serious, romantic or just plain different? No matter what kind of feeling you’re trying to create, choosing the right words is the key.

For some ideas, take a look at samples of invitation wording. About.com and other websites offer answers to frequently asked questions, along with wording for non-traditional weddings and blended or divorced families.

But don’t just take a sample and fill in the blanks with your own names and wedding date. Instead, take some time to customize the wording and make your invitation unique.

Get with the program
Take a similar approach with your wedding program. Do what you can to make it very personal and customized to your own particular situation. You may want to explain why you chose the wedding date, if it is significant. Or perhaps you’d like to remember deceased loved ones.

Here’s an example from a wedding program that explains why the couple chose their wedding date and also incorporates a dedication to deceased family members.
