Orthodox Wedding Invitation Website.
An Orthodox wedding usually happens in two halves, legal and liturgical, on different days, and guests routinely turn up to the wrong one.
The functions your invite has to carry
Every family keeps a different set, and skips some entirely. Tell us yours and we build to it — this is the common shape, not a rulebook.
- 01
Civil registry
The legal marriage, frequently a separate day from the church.
- 02
Betrothal
The exchange of rings, at the church entrance.
- 03
Crowning
The sacrament itself, with the crowns and the three processions.
- 04
Bread and salt
The welcome by the parents afterwards.
- 05
Reception
Toasts, the tamada, and a long evening.
What we build differently for a Russian & Orthodox wedding
Registry and crowning, told apart clearly
Different days, different dress, sometimes different guests. Each gets its own page so nobody arrives in the wrong clothes on the wrong morning.
The church calendar is a real constraint
Weddings are not celebrated during the four fasts or on certain feasts, and some parishes avoid Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday evenings. We build to the date your priest confirms.
Church etiquette, said once
Head covering, standing rather than sitting, when to photograph and when not. Guests unfamiliar with an Orthodox church would rather read it beforehand than guess.
The wording
Invitations are commonly extended by the parents and may open with a blessing. Cyrillic set as real type, with transliteration for guests abroad.
Languages: Russian, Ukrainian, Serbian, Greek or Romanian, alongside English.
