Wording For Your Invitations

If your anniversary party is formal you will want formal invitations with dress code and all of the party details. Quite often formal anniversary party invitations will be sent out by the couple's children who will be the hosts for the evening.

There is no written rule that this has to be the case, your invitations could be from you or your best friends.

And it

For a formal anniversary invitation the wording could be,

Mr Bob Taylor and Mrs Jane Smith would be delighted if you would join them in celebrating their parents Mr and Mrs Robert Taylor's 50th wedding anniversary. At The Golf Club, Links Road at 7.30pm on 12th April 2015. Dress code Black Tie. RSVP.

If your 50th anniversary party is to be more informal then wording for a simple invitation is;

Come and join us to celebrate 50 years together as Mr and Mrs, at the River Boat Restaurant 12th July at 19.30.

For your design you could have a classic design with a gold 50 on the front or "Fifty Years Together". If you could find some gold 50 numbers that you could glue to the front that would make your invitation sparkle. Gold ribbon tied around the invitation also looks very smart.
