What to write in a religious wedding card
Religion is a powerful element of a wedding that can hold very rich meaning to the parties involved. If you’d like to go the route of a religious greeting, be sure to consider the couple’s beliefs and practices as you do so. Share your blessings in a religious tone that will resonate with the couple, and even share a favorite piece of sacred text or scripture as an enlightening wish for the marriage.
“Thank you for allowing us to bear witness to a beautiful love, and this sacred moment in your lives. May God bless this union!”
“Mazel Tov! Congratulations on a spectacular wedding and a lifetime of love and happiness ahead.”
“Warmest wishes on your big day and as you start a new chapter of life and love together. May Allah grant you wisdom, blessings, and happiness!”
“The two of you are a blessing not only to each other, but to all those around you. Your love ripples out into the world and inspires your friends, family, and community. We are so happy for you and look forward to watching you grow in love as a couple!”
“May God grant you blessings of untold happiness and joy. May you love each other and cherish one another forever!”
What to write in a wedding card for siblings

“I am so thankful to have you as my sibling. It’s been so wonderful to grow up alongside you and I wish you a lifetime of joy with your [husband/wife]!”
“We couldn’t have asked for a better addition to the family! We love you both so much, congratulations!”
“Best wishes of love and happiness to you both! What an incredible day for our family.”
“To my sibling who has always meant the world to me – I’m so happy you found such a beautiful love. May your wedding day be everything you’ve dreamed of and more!”

Expressing Excitement & Showing Gratitude with Messages
Share gratitude for something this couple has added either to your life or to the lives of others. Make your greeting one-of-a-kind with a meaningful message. Include a favorite photo, a fond memory, or a personal wish you have for the couple. Tie in an expression of gratitude to show your appreciation for the couple and their accomplishments, as well as your support for their future to come. If you’re a guest at the wedding, bring your wedding congratulations card and give it to the couple at the reception. A more personal message should be shared intimately. If you’re eager to express your joy and excitement, you can choose to share your wedding wishes digitally on your social platforms or email. Congratulations can also be shared before or after the big day, even if you are not attending the wedding.

Wedding Gifts to Accompany Your Congratulations
Shop from the registry is traditional for a reason, because it’s exactly what the couple wants! A great way to pick out a gift from the registry is to choose one that is meaningful to you and perhaps that is relevant to your relationship with the couple.
If you are attending the wedding, then put the most investment into the gift you give them on the big day. It’s customary to bring gifts to showers and other events, and unless there’s a registry for those as well, then you can have a little more freedom to give a more personalized gift. It’s not imperative to give your gift at the wedding. In fact, it’s often easier to have the gift shipped to the couple. It’s proper etiquette to share your gift no later than three months after the date of the wedding, so whether you’re sending a registry item, a group gift, or cash or a check, be sure it arrives in time.
