Wedding Invitation Wording: How To Ask For Wedding Money?

With so many Invitations coming through our doors each day, we’ve seen it all, and we’re always happy to help you find the right words. It’s more common than ever to ask for cash or honeymoon contributions instead of traditional gifts, but wording it the right way makes all the difference. The key? Be polite, lighthearted, and make it clear that gifts aren’t expected.

You could say:

“Your presence at our wedding is the greatest gift of all. However, if you’d like to contribute to our honeymoon/new home/adventure fund, we’d be so grateful.”

Or:

“We’ve got all the pots and pans we need, but if you’d like to help us start married life with a treat or two, a cash gift towards our honeymoon fund would be greatly appreciated.
