New blog post: What to write in an engagement card

When a loved one gets engaged it’s a celebratory moment filled with excitement and anticipation for the future! You may find yourself thinking, “what to Write in an Engagement card?”. In times like these, it’s sometimes difficult to find the right way to express your feelings into a card to match the beautiful designs on the front. Whether it’s for your bestie, a family member or just a friendly neighbour, we have compiled some suggestions for you guys to capture this joyous feeling in a card!

If you haven’t found the perfect card yet, we have our beautifully hand-drawn designs available for you guys to make the happy couple a perfect, personalised engagement card!

Top Tips:

  • Address the card to both parties of the engagement, even if you only know on person from the couple, it’s vital that you make them both feel celebrated!
  • Celebrate the future, engagements usually mark the start of a lifetime adventure for the couple, share their excitement!
  • If you are a close friend/family member of the couple, make it personal! Put a little anecdote or inside joke inside the card, make them chuckle.
  • On the contrary, if you’re maybe just an acquaintance of the couple, a short, sweet and simple message is perfectly fine, it doesn’t have to feel forced, the thought is still very much there!
  • Β Make sure to keep the focus on the couple, try not to say things such as ‘i’m excited to be your maid of honour’ as it may take away from the celebration of the two of them.

Now onto the messages…

Simple/Heartfelt:
  • Congratulations on your engagement!
  • Congrats on finding your perfect match.
  • Wishing you a lifetime of love and laughter.
  • Congratulations on your exciting next chapter!
  • Couldn’t be happier for such a lovely couple.
Funny/Witty:
  • Can’t wait to see your Pinterest wedding board in real life.
  • He put a ring on it.
  • Time to get wedding planning…
  • You are both so lucky to find the one person you want to annoy for the rest of your life!
  • Congrats on getting engaged to your second best friend (i’m your first of course).

Regardless of what you write, the couple will appreciate the effort of congratulating them and wishing them well on their new venture. Especially with our beautiful personalised cards in which you can customise the couples hairstyles, outfits, backgrounds and handprops (don’t worry, we have an engagement ring one πŸ˜‰). Engagements are the start of a wondeful adventure and choosing a card that they will keep forever (or even frame!!) will make it even more special.

Design a personalised engagement card!
