Wedding Card Messages

Wedding card messages: what to write

Wedding season peaks across the UK from June to early September, and the card usually gets written in the car outside. These wedding card messages are grouped by tone so you can pick something funny, something warm, or something short you can sign as a group.

The lines that land name the couple, not the day. Start with one of these and finish it with something only the two of them would recognise.

Frequently asked questions

What do you write in a wedding card?

Congratulate them, then say one specific thing about the two of them together. A single honest line beats a long verse every time.

Do you sign a wedding card from both of you?

Yes — write the message, then sign both names at the bottom. Our cards are blank inside with room for a group signature too.
