Wording wedding invitations When They're Already Married
|
|
|
My daughter and her husband were married in a civil ceremony at the end of May. But they want a church wedding in August. How do I address invitations when they're already married?

As per Jodi R R Smith of www.themannersmith.com:
There are a few different ways to word such an invitation, here are some examples:
If you are viewing it as a reaffirmation of vows…
“at a ceremony to celebrate the reaffirmation of their wedding vows”
If you view them as being married, but that the church will be their wedding…
“at the wedding ceremony of their daughter”
If you are viewing this as the marriage in the eyes of the Church…
“at the Nuptial Mass uniting their daughter”
