When it comes to wedding invitation wording, not every family fits the traditional mold—and that’s perfectly okay. Whether your parents are divorced, remarried, or you’re hosting the wedding yourselves, your wording should reflect your unique family structure while still feeling warm, respectful, and clear.

When you're planning a wedding, it's tempting to think: "We can just DIY the invitations and save some money." It sounds simple enough—drag and drop some florals in Canva, pick a romantic script font, hit print, and boom—done. Right?

If you’re newly engaged and starting your stationery journey, you’ve probably stumbled across words like letterpress, belly band, deckled edges, or double-ply stock. Sound familiar? You’re not alone.
