Invitation Etiquette?

luckyus10 · June 2014

Is there any general rule for putting the names on the invitation? I've noticed that for straight marriages sometimes the guy's name is first and sometimes it's the girl. How do you choose with 2 girls? LOL Alphabetically maybe?

I am putting her name first and mine second . it really does not marry to me.

I'd say just however it rolls off the tongue better. If you normally introduce yourselves with one name first, do that for the invitations maybe? Or if one of you proposed to the other (instead of a mutual thing), I would put that person's name first.

Congratulations!

I like PP suggestion doing it based on who proposed. But heck you can do a few rough drafts & see which one you like better on paper.

She did propose.

I just played with it and decided which one looked better, or "flowed" better.

I asked this question on the Invitations and Paper board, it was suggessted we use strip poker to decide. Sounded like a good plan to me

Yeah me and my fiances names both start with A's so its a tough one :P I think I will use her's first!

I put his first, only because it seemed to flow better. We sent out invites a year in advance, so that people could plan annual leave and stuff like that, we left our actual location off, as we didn't have that secured until last month!
