A wedding invitation must clearly state who, what, when and where.  This does that.  It is fine.  Do not capitalize the word "follow".

Thank you very much.

Are you really getting married in less than a month?  ETA: Never mind, looks like from your address you're just using random numbers.

This contemporary invitation is not a carte blanche to word an invitation any way you wish.  This invitation is brief and to the point.  It covers all the necessary information.  I have seen other wordings that do not do this, though.  Be very careful when deviating from traditional wording.  There are faux pas that you should not make!
