What's included

What the Christian Classic template fills in for you

A graceful opening and the three main functions are ready — you add names, times and venues.

Blessing at the top

In God's grace

A gentle opening line, followed by an invitation to witness your union in Holy Matrimony.

Functions pre-listed
  • Engagement
  • Bridal Shower
  • Roce
  • Holy Matrimony
  • Reception

Each has its own date, time, venue, address, Google Maps link and an “at home” switch. Turn off any function you aren't hosting.

Welcome message

By the grace of God and with the blessing of our families, we joyfully invite you to witness our union in Holy Matrimony and to celebrate with us.

Closing message

Your presence and your prayers are the greatest gift. We look forward to celebrating with you.

Both messages are pre-written — keep them or rewrite them in your own words.

Why a church template

What a church wedding invitation needs

Two venues, a fixed ceremony time and guests coming from far — a picture card handles none of it well.

  • Church in the morning, reception at night

    The ceremony and the reception are usually at different places and hours — guests need both, clearly.

  • The service starts on time

    A Nuptial Mass won't wait for latecomers. Guests need the time — and a map — they can't misread.

  • Family across the world

    Many Goan, Mangalorean and Kerala families have relatives in the Gulf, the UK or Canada who need the details early.

With Shaadi Invitation

A church card that keeps everyone on time

  • Engagement, Bridal Shower, Roce, Holy Matrimony and Reception listed
  • The church and the reception venue, each with a map
  • Your own Bible verse or blessing in the welcome message
  • Call buttons for both families
  • Delivered instantly to guests anywhere

Christian wedding functions

Christian wedding functions — and how each fits on your invite

Functions common in Indian Christian weddings. Template functions get their own card; the rest fit in your welcome message.

  • In Christian Classic — a ready function card with date, venue and map
  • Mention in your message — add its timing to your welcome message

  1. 1. Engagement

    In Christian Classic

    A ring ceremony, often with a blessing by the priest and a family dinner.

    Listed as “Engagement” — switch it off if it's already done.

  2. 2. Banns of marriage

    Mention in your message

    In Catholic parishes, the coming marriage is announced at Sunday Masses in the weeks before the wedding.

    Not an event to time — but some couples mention their parishes.

  3. 3. Roce

    In Christian Classic

    In Goan and Mangalorean Catholic families, the bride and groom are anointed with coconut milk (and turmeric) at home the day before.

  4. 4. Manasammatham

    Mention in your message

    In Kerala Christian weddings, the betrothal at the church where the families formally agree to the marriage.

  5. 5. Holy Matrimony

    In Christian Classic

    Vows, rings and the blessing at the church — often within a Nuptial Mass. In Kerala, the minnu is tied during the ceremony.

    Give the exact start time and pin the church entrance.

  6. 6. Reception

    In Christian Classic

    Toasts, the cake cutting, the first dance and dinner — usually that evening, at a different venue.

Wording

Christian wedding invitation wording and verses

Copy a line or a verse into your welcome or closing message.

  • Formal invitation

    Together with their families, Anita D'Souza and Joseph Fernandes request the honour of your presence as they are united in Holy Matrimony.

  • 1 Corinthians 13:4

    “Love is patient and is kind.” — 1 Corinthians 13:4

  • Mark 10:9

    “What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” — Mark 10:9

  • Ecclesiastes 4:9

    “Two are better than one.” — Ecclesiastes 4:9

    The Nuptial Mass begins at 11:00 AM at the Church of Our Lady — kindly be seated by 10:45 AM.

    Dinner and dance to follow at 7:00 PM, Seaside Lawns. Dress code: festive formal.

Names, venues and times in these samples are placeholders — replace them with your own.

Who it suits

Christian weddings this template is made for

  • Goan & Mangalorean Catholic weddings

    Church in the morning, a reception with a band at night — two cards, two maps.

  • Kerala Christian weddings

    Mention the Manasammatham in your message; the church ceremony and reception get their own cards.

  • Church wedding, city reception

    When the parish is in your hometown and the reception in the city, guests get directions to both.

  • Relatives abroad

    Family in the Gulf, the UK or Canada sees every detail the moment you share — mark times as IST.

Helpful notes

Small details that help church wedding guests

Lines worth adding to your welcome message.

  • Ask guests to be seated early

    A gentle “please be seated by 10:45” makes sure nobody walks in during the vows.

  • Mention the dress code

    Church-appropriate for the ceremony, festive for the reception — one line saves many questions.

  • Pin the church entrance

    Large churches have several gates and car parks. Pin the one closest to the main door.
