Graduation Invitation Wording - Useful Pointers and Samples for Invites

Do you need some tips and ideas to help you craft graduation invitation wording?

Here are some pointers as well as invite wording samples which would be useful to you.

Composing an invitation to a graduation is almost as difficult as creating a wedding invitation. Whether you are a parent or student, you have to find just the right words to convey your pride and satisfaction at having the graduate finish high school or college and get ready to face the next of life's challenges.

If cost is an issue - and maybe the student has just graduated from high school and is going on to further his or her education at an expensive college (actually, they're all expensive nowadays), then perhaps you might want to consider making your own invitations on your home computer.

Card stock may be purchased online or at any stationery or office supply store for a reasonable price, and you can then download one of hundreds of graduation invitation wording suggestions from many online sources, and perhaps add photos of the graduate. Some of the online sites have specific wording choices that will help you, especially if you are graduating from a medical college, theological college or law school.

However, the difference in cost may be minimal, so you may have to base your choice on how you want the invitation to read - if you want to add a few personal touches, such as handmade paper and decorations, then you might prefer to make your own unique invitation.

You can put more information onto a homemade graduation card, such as the fact that the student is continuing his or her education at a prestigious university or has graduated with honors. You can also add an invitation to join you at your home to celebrate with a graduation party for the honoree.

Finding the correct graduation invitation wording can be a challenge; you want to express the feeling of accomplishment the student has achieved through many years of hard work and the pride - and relief - you feel, to be finally at the end of a long haul.

A few suggestions and examples of graduation invitation wording are listed below.

Perhaps your son or daughter is a "special needs" student - in which case you will be doubly proud of the fact that they have been able to successfully complete high school and graduate. Let your graduation invitation wording reflect this!

John Smith, Jr.
who is graduating from American High School.

Whichever format and design you choose to announce the graduation, let the invite and the graduation invitation wording reflect the individual who has accomplished so much. So many young people drop out of high school that you should celebrate the fact that this student has worked hard and achieved one goal in life. Let us hope that they all continue on this path and enjoy the life they have chosen.
