Wedding etiquette dictates most aspects of wedding planning and the invitation wording is no exception. Here's a handy guide to help as you prepare your invites:

The invitation is addressed to one person - Only that person is invited.

The invitation is addressed to one person "and guest" - The invitee may bring a date of their choice. On the response card, the invitee will indicate the guest's name so that items, such as the place card, can be personalized.

The invitation is addressed to one person and their significant other - Children are not invited. The response card should indicate who us attending.

The invitation is addressed to one person, the significant other, and children's names or "and children" or "and family". The invitation may also read, "To the [Guest's Name] Family" - All family members are invited and the response card should indicate the exact number who will be attending.

Following these etiquette guidelines will help your guests know who exactly is invited. And having as exact a number of attendees as possible will help you as you prepare the seating chart and finalize the menu.
