Monogram Wedding Invitations

Monogram wedding invitations are a favorite among many engaged couples. However, in their enthusiasm to see their combined monogram, they may cross the bounds of good etiquette if they try to use their married monogram on their wedding invitations.

It is considered bad taste to use your married initials or monogram before the wedding. Therefore monogram wedding invitations should never display the combined initials or monogram they will use once they are married.

The monogram on wedding invitations should be that of the groom. The general rule of thumb is to either use all three initials or to simply use the last name initial. If using the initials of first, middle and last name. They should be arranged in the following order: first, last, middle. The initial for the last name should be in a larger font size than the initial of the first name on the left and the initial of the middle name of the right.

For a groom named, Clayton Richard Walker, the monogram would look like:

These are just a few of the most frequently requested fonts for monogram wedding invitations. Some of the other most popular fonts are those that might be considered more reserved, dignified or grand.

When picking out your monogram wedding invitations just remember this one simple rule: Don’t use your married monogram. Save your married monogram for your thank you card and any stationery you use after you are husband and wife.
