Wedding season is upon us! As the weather gets warmer and those rainy days become less frequent, more and more happy couples will be walking down the aisle to become legally married. This means we’re getting ready to celebrate love, and to congratulate the newlyweds on the next phase of their relationships with one of our stunning wedding cards.

All of our wedding cards are blank on the inside, so you can write your own personal message of congratulations to the pair - but we know that sometimes finding the right words to fill that blank space can be trickier than expected, so we’ve put together this guide on what to write in a wedding card to give you some inspiration.
