Verses For Wedding Invitations: Announcement, Reception, Response Card And Quotations

Perhaps they met in a Parisian art museum while admiring the same sculpture. Maybe they met when they were sent to the same location overseas while working for the Peace Corps. Or it is possible they just went to the same corner coffee shop every morning. However they found each other, they are in love and ready to spend the rest of their lives together. A perfect couple deserves a perfect wedding. However, before vows can be exchanged, the wedding announcement and invitations must sent to all the guests. By choosing verses for wedding invitations, the couple will express their individuality and celebrate their love for one another.

Couples can decide what they have in common and try to find verses for wedding invitations to fit that theme. Perhaps they have a mutual favorite author or poet they would like to quote on their wedding announcement, such as Thoreau: "There is no remedy for love but to love more."

Songs can also be a source of inspiration for verses for wedding invitations. Almost any band, from famous to obscure, has at least a couple of tunes about love. Quotable material from songwriters is almost endless. Frank Sinatra has some delightful lines about love in his song "All the Way:"
"Who knows where the road will lead us/ Only a fool would say/ But if you let me love you/ I'm sure to love you all the way. "

Websites that list famous quotes or verses for wedding invitations specifically about love can be browsed by the couple to see if anything strikes their fancy. This is especially helpful if they cannot reach an agreement or do not have any ideas for authors, poets or religious script. Verses for wedding invitations found online can be simple or elaborate. A few words can sometimes elegantly express an idea or feeling better than a longer verse. A short, but beautiful example from Mother Teresa is: "Love: a fruit always in season."

Sometimes the most beautiful verses for wedding invitations can be written by the couple themselves. The unique features of the engaged couple's relationship are best known by the two of them. Because of this, no one is better suited to write the perfect words to mark the occasion. If they want to write the verses for wedding invitations but feel they need assistance, they can enlist the help of friends or family who have a talent for writing. They also have the option of taking a class on poetry writing if they want to invest a lot of time and effort in composing the verses for wedding invitations. A local poet may provide the engaged couple with personalized invites for a fee if the couple decides they do not want to write the verses for wedding invitations themselves.

When the verses for wedding invitations are decided upon, the couple can decide whether or not the response card for the wedding reception should also include quotes or verses. Including quotes or verses on the response card in addition to the verses for wedding invitations is a nice touch but requires extra finding and decision-making on quotes or writing of verses. Some guests may only be invited to the wedding reception and not the wedding itself. This is often due to lack of room in the church, synagogue, or other religious site where the wedding will take place. Because of this, more emphasis may be placed on the quotes or verses on the personalized invites to the wedding reception and the response card which will be received by all guests.

Making an engagement announcement is always exciting. Verses for wedding invitations help to set the mood for the wedding by expressing the couple's love for one another. Personalized invites that include quotations about love or devotion from an author, poet, songwriter or religious text are appropriate. Verses for wedding invitations written personally by either the couple or family members make the invites even more unique. Whatever type of verses for wedding invitations the engaged couple chooses, they are sure to enhance the wedding experience for guests; and especially for the two people exchanging vows and planning a life together.
