Frequently asked questions
What should I write in a wedding card for my daughter?
One observation only you could make, then a wish for the couple. Mention their partner by name — it signals you are welcoming a person, not just approving a match.
How much should I write in a wedding card?
Three to five sentences. Couples read every card eventually but usually in a batch, so a short message with one real detail outperforms a long general one.
