Formal Party Wording

When you're planning a more formal get together for your anniversary, you want to be careful about how you write the message. First, you should begin with the name of the host and/or hostess of the party. Always use full names when you're doing formal anniversary wording, sayings or verses for your anniversary announcements. Following the names you should have the phrase "Request the honor of your company" or something similar. Then you mention the specific anniversary being celebrated and the full names of the individuals who are going to be the guests of honor.

When you get to the next step, you'll list the details of the party line by line starting with the date, followed by the time, the specific location, the address (not required but always a good idea), and the city and state. You can then choose to add your RSVP information directly as part of the anniversary words or you can use separate response cards for the guests to mail back. Remember that on the formal wedding anniversary invitations you should have the entire message printed on the card.

Informal Party Wording

With an informal party wording invitation , you don't have to worry so much about getting each line perfect according to etiquette standards. Instead, you have more freedom about the content you can include. For example, you might want to add in your own anniversary verses . One nice addition could be the vows the two of you wrote for one another all those years ago at the wedding celebration. Of course, you still want to include the basic details, such as who is hosting the celebration, who is the guests of honor, the location and other party details, etc.

Another difference between the informal and formal wedding anniversary invitation is that the informal ones do not have to be printed. You can even handwrite the information on the invitations if you choose. The choice is yours. You could even choose to have some part of the Anniversary Wordings printed on the card with the rest handwritten. Again, you get to decide.

The Question of Gifts

One rule you do need to understand is that your Anniversary Wordings should not include any mentioning of gifts. You should not mention being registered for gifts. Even if you prefer money or a charitable donation to gifts, you should not include this on the invitations either. Mentioning gifts makes it seem as if you are expecting something from your friends and family, and they are not obligated to buy gifts for your celebration even though many may choose to do so. Gifts are much more common with the 25th silver wedding anniversary and 50th golden wedding anniversary.
