Frequently asked questions

What should garden wedding invitation wording include?

Use the wording to invite guests to an outdoor garden wedding. Keep the invitation, names, date, time and venue easy to identify, then add the garden wedding invitation detail without burying the core invitation.

What should guests know if the wedding is in a garden?

Make the venue and start time clear, then use the details card or website for weather plans, lawn-friendly footwear, outdoor seating or temperature advice if those points will affect guests.

Should garden wedding invitation wording go on the main invitation or on an insert?

For garden wedding invitation wording, put anything that changes who is invited or what they are invited to on the main invitation. Use main invitation, invitation insert or digital invitation for longer explanation, travel information or secondary etiquette notes so the core invitation stays easy to read.
