Tips for Writing This Card

Use a Scripture passage they love. If you know the couple's faith tradition well, a favorite verse adds a deeply personal touch.
Acknowledge the covenant. Religious marriages are covenants before God — referencing the sacred nature of what they're doing adds weight and meaning.
Include a prayer or blessing. A simple prayer wish ("May God bless your union") is always appropriate and meaningful in a religious context.
Match their denomination. A Catholic, evangelical, or Jewish couple may have different traditions — tailor your tone accordingly if you know their faith well.
Don't be preachy. Even a religious card should lead with joy and celebration — the faith element should feel like a blessing, not a lecture.

Common Questions

What Bible verse is good for a wedding card?

1 Corinthians 13:4–7 ("Love is patient, love is kind") is one of the most popular. Ecclesiastes 4:12 ("A cord of three strands") is beloved for its image of God in the marriage. Proverbs 3:3–4 is also a meaningful choice.

How do I write a religious wedding card without being preachy?

Lead with celebration and joy, and weave in your faith-based sentiment naturally. A blessing or brief Scripture reference lands better than extended religious instruction — the couple knows their faith; you're affirming it.

Is it appropriate to write a religious message in a wedding card for someone of a different faith?

Be thoughtful. If the couple is of a different faith tradition, opt for more universal spiritual sentiments ("may your union be blessed") rather than specific Scripture or denominational references.
