Invitaion wording?

How would we word the Save the Dates/ Invitations with my fiance Mark who is a Marine Sgt? Does the title go under his name?

  • His rank doesn't go on anywhere because he's enlisted. 

    It's just

    Hoonah Grace
    to
    Mark Smith
    United States Marine Corps
    I hate Dave Ramsey
  • I wouldn't put it on the save-the-dates, and to be honest I don't think we're putting it on the invitations (his choice).  Other ladies will be able to help more with specific etiquette info.  I know it's dependent on rank, but I don't know the details.  Sorry!  And welcome!

  • Save the dates are an informal way of informing your guests to save the date and prepare for your invitation in the future.  It should just read:

    Honorah Grace
    to
    Mike Smith

    02-02-13 

    When you send out the invitations, you can add the Marine Corps under his name.  As Stan mentioned, he's enlisted.  The rank doesn't go on the invite.

  • Does the same go for veterans? Honorably discharged?

    We did not really do a save the date but more of an information card for our out of state guest that needed hotel information and we did not use H's rank.  I think that is to formal for a save the date.  However, I don't know full etiquette.  I am not sure about the veteran part. 

  • There's no change in the rule for veterans. Retired officers generally retain their rank however.
