Your cousin\u2019s wedding is soon approaching, you\u2019ve chosen a lovely card but you still can\u2019t think of what to write inside this congratulatory wedding card.\u00a0 Well, you\u2019re not alone.\u00a0 And, the truth is that no one can tell you exactly what to write, as the sentiment should come from you, not from a complete stranger or copied fro a book word for word.\u00a0 Your message should be heartfelt, personal, and hopefully unique.\u00a0 There are some aspects of your relationship with the couple to consider before putting pen to card.\u00a0 The message in a wedding card should reflect your relationship with the bride or groom or both– the closer the relationship, the more personal the message.<\/p>\n

Include words like congratulations, best wishes, longlasting happiness and the like. Move on to include a personal message depending on the relationship. For close friends and family members, perhaps recount a favorite memory of the bride\/groom. However, it is probably best to refrain from reminiscing about past relationships\/loves.\u00a0 Quotes from famous people about love or excerpts from love poems can be inspirational for the wedding couple and nice to include in a wedding card along with your personal message.<\/p>\n

Will you be you be attending or not?\u00a0 This would greatly alter your message and you\u2019ll want to either explain why you\u2019re sorry you cannot be at the wedding or say how excited you are to be attending.\u00a0 \u00a0Finally, think of what you would say to the couple if giving a toast in their honor.\u00a0 This just might help get those creative juices flowing.<\/p>\n
