Wedding Invitation Messages from Groom's Parents
When the groom's parents host, the message welcomes the bride's family and every guest with equal warmth. These examples keep that welcome front and centre.
In short
The groom's parents open as hosts, and welcome the bride's family by name.
Give the reception or ceremony details clearly, with date, time, and venue.
Keep the tone generous: the message is a welcome, not a list of credits.
What it means
A message from the groom's parents is an invitation issued by his family. It usually begins with the parents' names, expresses joy at the marriage of their son, names the bride and her parents with warmth, and then gives the event details. It closes with a request for blessings and presence.
This form suits receptions hosted by the groom's family, and weddings where the groom's parents are named first by agreement. The tone is welcoming by nature, since the message often reaches the bride's extended family and friends for the first time.
What your invitation can do
A MyIndiAura invite can carry your story in more than words. It can open with a short entrance film, then move through your events, your venue details, and your photos in one smooth scroll. It can include an RSVP button so guests confirm in a tap, a map link so nobody gets lost, and a photo gallery from your pre wedding shoots. You can share it on WhatsApp, and you can update a detail later without reprinting anything.
Options to consider
- A formal message, with full names and a traditional blessing line.
- A warm welcome message, naming the bride's family with affection.
- A short message for WhatsApp, with the link and key details up front.
- A joint message, where both families host and the groom's parents are named first.
Style tips
Name the bride's family with real warmth, not as a formality. Guests from the bride's side read this message closely, and a generous line about her parents sets the tone for the whole wedding relationship. It costs nothing and means a great deal.
Agree the order of events in the message with the bride's family too, even when the groom's parents host. The ceremony, reception, and any other events should appear in the same order on every invite and board, so guests never face two different sequences.
A host's first job is to make every guest feel expected, not just invited.
What you need
- The groom's parents' names, exactly as they wish to appear.
- The bride's name and her parents' names.
- Date, time, and venue for the hosted events.
- The tone choice, agreed with the groom's parents.
- An RSVP contact who will actually answer.
- A proofread by both families, since this message reaches both sides.
How to share it
- Share with parents and close family first, so they hear it from you.
- Send to outstation guests next, since they need the most time to plan travel.
- Send to friends and colleagues after that, in small batches you can track.
- Follow up once, politely, with guests who have not replied.
- Keep one final list of who confirmed, so the venue count stays accurate.
What it costs
A MyIndiAura invitation comes in three options. A Cinematic Invite costs ₹499, an Invite App costs ₹399, and an Invitation Suite costs ₹99. Pick the one that fits how you want guests to open the invite, and pay only for that option. There are no struck through prices and no hidden extras in the price you see.
How to create yours
- Pick a design from the designs page that matches your wedding style.
- Add your names, your events, your dates, and your venue details.
- Add your photos and check every spelling, especially names and dates.
- Preview the invite on your phone, exactly as a guest will see it.
- Fix anything that looks off, then confirm your order.
- Share the finished invite with your guests, starting with family.
