Bengali Biye Invitation Wording.

The main ceremony invitation — the one everyone receives.

Who invites
The elders invite. The Bou Bhaat is hosted by the groom’s family and carries its own invitation.
How it opens
An invocation to Durga or Narayan, with the Bengali calendar date alongside the Gregorian
Register
Literary. Bengali invitations often carry a line of verse, and the Bengali is set with as much care as the English.

Sample wording

Written as common practice, not prescription. Take whichever is closest and change the parts that are not you — that is what these are for.
