Wedding Shower Invitation Wording - Tips, Ideas and Samples

Are you seeking inspiration for wedding shower invitation wording?

If you have been chosen to be the maid-of-honor in the wedding of a close friend, it's likely that you will be expected to do a lot of things between now and the wedding. One of the most important of these things being the host of a wedding shower!

You'll want to plan the shower for one to three months prior to the wedding date. You'll need to plan some great shower games, find some wonderful recipes for snacks, and compile a guest list. It's definitely wise to ask the bride-to-be for her input in all of this, whether she is a bridezilla or not!

About four weeks before the date of the shower, you'll need to get your invitations made and ready. Whether you're making them yourself at home or utilizing a paper-products company to print them for you, you'll have to make some decisions regarding customizing the invitation especially for your shower.

When deciding on wedding shower invitation wording, you'll need to choose how simple you'd like the invites to be. A very simple, classic, and elegant way to word your invitations is with the traditional, "Who, What, When, Where" information. See the wedding shower invitation wording example below.

You are Invited!

Who: Shari is getting married!
What: Bridal Shower
When: Saturday, July 13, 2010 at 3 pm
Where: Gina's home, 1234 A Street, in Citysburg
RSVP: Call (555-1234) or e-mail (ginadee@email.com) Gina by July 6

This sample includes all of the information in a concise, simple, and easy to read format. There will likely be enough room on the paper to include a small graphic, such as entwined wedding rings or a pair of doves, along with the wedding shower invitation wording. Or you can use this as a starting point, and add other touches to the invitation as well.

You could also add in a verse or short poem about getting married. One example follows.

A sprinkle of flowers and a couple of kisses, soon David and Karen will be Mr. and Mrs. But as we wait for that special hour, let's honor Karen with a Bridal Shower!
