InviteBatch keeps that wording in one place and prints each guest’s name on their own invitation, so the whole guest list is done in minutes. ## What do you write on a Jewish wedding invitation? A Jewish wedding invitation usually names the hosts (often both sets of parents), the couple, the date in both the English and the Hebrew calendar, the time of the chuppah, the venue, and what follows. Many couples also list the Kabbalat Panim (the reception before the ceremony) so guests arrive early. A traditional example: > Together with their parents Rachel & David Cohen and Miriam & Joseph Levy, **Hannah and Benjamin** joyfully invite **[guest name]** to celebrate their marriage under the chuppah. Sunday, June 20, 2027 · 15 Sivan 5787 · Five o’clock in the evening. The Glasshouse at Willow Park. Kabbalat Panim · Chuppah · Dinner and dancing to follow. Every line on our designs is editable, so you can use formal wording (“request the honour of your presence”), modern wording (“joyfully invite”) or your own. More examples are in our [wedding invitation wording guide](https://invitebatch.com/blog/wedding-invitation-wording). ## Whose names go first on a Jewish wedding invitation? Traditionally the hosts come first. On a Jewish invitation that is usually **both sets of parents**, with the bride’s parents listed first, then the groom’s. Couples hosting their own wedding often write “Together with their families” instead. Between the couple’s names, most Jewish invitations use “and” rather than an ampersand, traditionally with the bride’s name first. If a parent has passed away, a common form is “the late” before the name. ## Should a Jewish wedding invitation include the Hebrew date? Yes, most do. Write it under the English date, for example “Sunday, June 20, 2027 · 15 Sivan 5787”. Check the conversion with a Hebrew date converter (such as hebcal.com) and remember that the Hebrew day begins at sunset, so an evening ceremony after nightfall falls on the next Hebrew date. Our editor sets the wording in English letters, so the Hebrew date is written in English (“15 Sivan 5787”). The **Ani L’Dodi** design also carries the verse “אני לדודי ודודי לי” (Song of Songs 6:3) in gold Hebrew letters as part of its artwork. ## Which dates should you avoid for a Jewish wedding? Jewish weddings are not held on Shabbat (Friday sunset to Saturday nightfall) or on major festivals. Many communities also avoid most of the Omer, the seven weeks between Passover and Shavuot (Lag BaOmer is a popular exception), and the Three Weeks in summer before Tisha B’Av. Customs differ, so confirm the date with your rabbi before you print. That is why **Sunday** is the most popular day for Jewish weddings, and why Saturday-night weddings start after Shabbat ends. Our sample wording uses a Sunday date for the same reason. ## Which symbols are used on Jewish wedding invitations? The most common are the **chuppah** (the wedding canopy), the **Star of David**, the **Jerusalem** skyline, the **pomegranate** and **olive branch**, and verses from the Song of Songs. Each of our designs is built around one of them: - [Floral Chuppah](https://invitebatch.com/templates/wedding/floral-chuppah-jewish-wedding-invitation): a watercolor chuppah draped in blush and ivory roses. - [Jerusalem Gold](https://invitebatch.com/templates/wedding/jerusalem-gold-jewish-wedding-invitation): the Old City walls and towers in gold, under a gold arch on navy. - [Star of David](https://invitebatch.com/templates/wedding/star-of-david-jewish-wedding-invitation): a fine gold Star of David on a modern white card. - [Pomegranate & Olive](https://invitebatch.com/templates/wedding/pomegranate-olive-jewish-wedding-invitation): watercolor pomegranates and olive branches on cream. - [Ani L’Dodi](https://invitebatch.com/templates/wedding/ani-ldodi-hebrew-english-jewish-wedding-invitation): the Hebrew verse in gold with the English line “I am my beloved’s and my beloved is mine”. ## How do you put each guest’s name on the invitation? 1. **Pick a design** above and write your wording once. 2. **Paste your guest list**, one invitation per line, exactly as each name should be printed (“Mr. & Mrs. Aaron Goldberg”, “Rabbi Yosef Mizrahi and family”). 3. **Check every card** in the free preview with the real names. 4. **Download** one PDF per guest, an all-in-one PDF and print sheets (US Letter or A4), and send each guest a personal link with RSVP by WhatsApp, text or email.

The editable wording is set in English letters, so names and the Hebrew date are written in English (for example “15 Sivan 5787”). The Ani L’Dodi design has a Hebrew verse in gold as part of its artwork. **Can the RSVP cover the Kabbalat Panim and the reception separately?** Yes. The online RSVP can ask about up to three events, so guests can answer for the ceremony and the reception separately, with meal choices and dietary needs if you ask for them. **Do these work for interfaith and modern Jewish weddings?** Yes. Every line is editable, so you can use traditional, modern or interfaith wording and leave out anything that does not fit your ceremony. **What size are the invitations and how do I print them?** Each invitation is 5x7 inches.
