The Invitation To A House Wedding






Is precisely the same except that " at Sunnylawn" or " at Four West Thirty-sixth Street" is put in place of " at St. John's Church, " and an invitation to stay on at a house, to which the guest is already invited, is not necessary.

 

The Train Card

If the wedding is to be in the country, a train card is enclosed:

 

 

A special train will leave Grand Central Station at 12: 45 P.M.,
arriving at Ridgefield at 2: 45. Returning, train will leave
Ridgefield at 5: 10 P.M., arriving New York at 7.02 P.M.

 

Show this card at the gate.

 

Invitation To Reception And Not To Ceremony

It sometimes happens that the bride prefers none but her family at the ceremony, and a big reception. This plan is chosen where the mother of the bride or other very near relative is an invalid. The ceremony may take place at a bedside, or it may be that the invalid can go down to the drawing-room with only the immediate families, and is unequal to the presence of many people.

Under these circumstances the invitations to the breakfast or reception are sent on sheets of note paper like that used for church invitations, but the wording is:

Mr. and Mrs. Grantham Jones

Request the pleasure of your company

At the wedding breakfast of their daughter

Muriel

And

Mr. Burlingame Ross, Jr.

On Saturday the first of November

at one o'clock

At Four East Thirty-Eighth Street

The favor of an
answer is requested

 

The " pleasure of your company" is requested in this case instead of the " honour of your presence."

 

The Written Wedding Invitation

If a wedding is to be so small that no invitations are engraved, the notes of invitation should be personally written by the bride:

 

Sally Dear:

Our wedding is to be on Thursday the tenth at half-past twelve, Christ Church Chantry. Of course we want you and Jack and the children! And we want all of you to come afterward to Aunt Mary's, for a bite to eat and to wish us luck.

Affectionately,

Helen.

 

or

 

Dear Mrs. Kindhart:

Dick and I are to be married at Christ Church Chantry at noon on Thursday the tenth. We both want you and Mr. Kindhart to come to the church and afterward for a very small breakfast to my Aunt's—Mrs. Slade—at Two Park Avenue.

With much love from us both,

Affectionately,

Helen.

 

Wedding Announcements

If no general invitations were issued to the church, an announcement engraved on note paper like that of the invitation to the ceremony, is sent to the entire visiting list of both the bride's and the groom's family:

 

Mr. and Mrs. Maynard Barnes

Have the honour to announce

The marriage of their daughter
