How do you write a wedding congratulations note?

When writing a wedding congratulations note, it's best to write from the heart. Keep in mind the formality of the wedding you're attending and your connection with the couple. Choose a card or stationery, write your message inside, and double-check your spelling and grammar before sealing the note for delivery.

1. Choose a card or stationery

   Consider the favorite colors of the wedding couple, the theme of the wedding or other personal touches to incorporate into the card. Avoid notepad paper or printer paper. Instead, opt for a card from a greeting card store in the wedding or celebrations section, or stationery meant for letter writing.

2. Decide upon your message

   If you know the couple well, consider writing a personalized note about your friendship and your wish for their continued happiness as they join their lives together. If you don't know the couple well, keep the message simple with a short note, such as "Best wishes!" or "Congratulations on your wedding!"

3. Write and seal your message

   Write your message in the card or on your stationery. Sign your name at the end of your congratulatory note. Choose an envelope, and either mail the card or hand it to the couple on their wedding day.
