Copywriter Nina Mozes offers sage advice on the most important of topics: what to write in that greeting card?
Chances are you’ve yet again spent too much money on an item that the happy couple pre-selected for themselves on their registry (unless of course you got something super duper cool and different from us!).
Why not save up a couple bucks and add your own personal touch with a card written just by you?
Here’s what you need to keep in mind for a wedding card:
1. Use words of encouragement.
2. No matter how much you’re dreading this wedding, the bride and groom are dreading it more.
So tell them something nice they can believe. Here are a few ideas:
Congratulations! You guys are so cute, you’ll have adorable kids. Just wait a few years to be sure it sticks, k?
You two are so cool. Relax, we all have in-laws from hell.
Wishing you good health and happiness, or at least good health.
And there are always famous words:
Gandhi: “I first learned the concepts of non-violence in my marriage.”
John Lennon: “All you need is love.”
(And money and sex and – yep, that’s about it.)
Albert Einstein: “Gravitation is not responsible for people falling in love.”
(It is however responsible for people falling over dead. So don’t kill each other.)
Personally, I like to quote the wise words of comedian Myq Kaplan:
“Fifty percent of marriages in this country end in divorce. That’s one out of every two people. So, it’s either going to be you or your wife.”
Attach your snappy words to a classy gift:
