Punjabi · Reception

Punjabi Reception Invitation Wording.

Frequently a separate day, a separate venue, and a wider guest list.

Who invites
Both families invite. Punjabi invitations tend to be warmer and less formal in register than South Indian ones.
How it opens
Ik Onkar for Sikh families, or a Ganesha invocation for Hindu Punjabi families
Register
Generous and celebratory. The card usually carries the whole week, not just the ceremony.

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.

Traditional
S. Harjeet Singh & Sdn. Manpreet Kaur
