30 Heartfelt Messages To Write To The Bride and The Groom

How A Personalized Message Can Strengthen Your Friendship

Writing the perfect message to the bride and groom can seem like such a daunting task, especially you are not a person of many words but writing a message from the heart will go a long way after the ceremony.

a) They will get insight on just how much they mean to you

 The pair will see how much they mean to you through the words you penned down and that you took the time to write something so heartfelt will tell them just how much they mean to you.

b) They will feel loved and appreciated

The bride and groom just broke their backs and bank accounts to make sure that you have a good time at their wedding. Writing a little note of appreciation will be deeply appreciated.

c) Lift their spirits

Weddings are a tough affair to plan and by the end of it, the couple may have their spirits frayed around the edges. Words have the power to heal and this will give them the affirmation that they did a good thing.

Congratulations on finally saying ‘I do’! I am so happy for you and Noah… I am honored to be involved in your big day.

My wish for you is a marriage full of happiness, love and lifelong friendship.

“A happy marriage is a long conversation which always seems too short” -Andre Maurois

I could tell you how much I love you and cherish our friendship, and how you mean more to me than anyone in this world, and that you and Wes are the most perfect couple that ever lived—but I’d probably break down and start ugly crying.
