✍️ How to Write a Wedding Card That Feels Genuine
There’s no single way to write a great wedding message—but here’s a helpful flow:
- Open with warmth – “Dear lovebirds,” or “To the newlyweds”
- Say congratulations – Don’t skip the joy!
- Add a personal touch – A memory, inside joke, or wish
- Close with love – Keep it sweet, simple, and true to you
