Wedding Wishes
Finding the perfect words to express happiness on a couple's wedding day is important. But more often than not, saying something that is genuine and heartfelt can be difficult. We help you realize your wishes for the couple.
Each one of us, at some point of time, has been in a situation where we find ourselves completely unsure of how to express our sentiments. Weddings are exactly such social situations. Whether you are a close friend attending your best pal's wedding or an acquaintance of the bride/groom's family, at some point you will meet the couple to congratulate them. This is when you want to convey your happiness for them without sounding coerced. Choosing the right words to communicate your sentiment is essential, and we help you do just that.
The best wishes are those that express your true sentiment and come straight from the heart. But there are some tiny but key things that you should consider before saying or writing down your wishes for the bridal couple.

- Your relationship with the bride and/or groom is significant. This will ascertain how personal your wishes are.
- Think about what you want the tone of your message to be. If you are older than the couple, you could give them advice. You could also choose to say something about love, romance, the institution of marriage, or even have an underlying funny tone.
- If you want to make the wishes a little more personal and you do not know the couple well, observe them during the wedding and reception, and you will surely find something to say that will bring a smile to their faces.
- If you are writing your wishes, be as clear as possible. Written communication can often be misunderstood and perceived as fake or forced.
- In case you are using quotes to convey your wishes, add a complementary message to it so that the wishes are a little more personal.
