When writing a wedding card in the UK, its important to strike the right tone and convey your congratulations and well wishes to the happy couple. Here are some tips and examples from various sources:
- Address the card to both the bride and groom/bride and bride/groom and groom, or write separate messages for each person. However, ideally, you should end with a joint message or wish for their life together.
- The general format is: your congratulations or best wishes; your hopes for their future together; a message about how right they are for each other; and end with a thank you for allowing you to share in their big day.
- You can keep it short and sweet or write a longer, more sentimental message depending on your relationship with the couple.
- You can include a personal anecdote or memory, a quote, or a poem.
- You can express your excitement to celebrate with them, your happiness for them, and your wishes for a long and happy marriage.
- You can also offer advice or words of wisdom, or express your gratitude for their friendship or love.
