Have you been searching the internet for Christian wedding invites and can’t seem to find an existing design that matches your vision? Truly Engaging has an extensive catalog of templates destined to become the Christian Wedding Invitation you’ve always wanted.

Religious Wedding Invitations don’t need to start with a template that’s specifically designed for a Christian ceremony. The templates below range from text-heavy designs ideal for creating your own Bible verse wedding invitation to simpler layouts decorated with a sprig of flowers or smattering of greenery. Check out these invites and then see how you can customize your pick using religious quotes and faith-based messaging that speaks to your Christianity and your heart.

1. Stately Vow

Stately Vow | Rectangle Invitations

Stately Vow features lovely damask flourishes and other elegant touches to create a religious invitation that’s entirely appropriate for the church ceremony you and your sweetheart have planned. You can customize the colors to match your vision and add some raised foil for extra glitz.

2. Quiet Scene

Quiet Scene | All-in-One Wedding Invitations

Quiet Scene is like a peek into the past, present, and future of you and your soon-to-be-spouse. This all-in-one Wedding Invitation opens up to reveal an arched picture frame at the top of the peaked stationery. Upload a photo of you and your beloved, then follow it up with your traditional Christian wedding details, including the name and address of the church hosting your upcoming ceremony.

3. Graceful Wreath

Graceful Wreath | Rectangle Invitations

Watercolors, wedding-ready design, warmth — Graceful Wreath has it all, including a circle of branches that some view as a representation of Christian faith and eternal life. It’s right on target for couples who know the commitment they’re about to make will see them united for the rest of their lives and beyond.

4. Wedding Florals

Wedding Florals | Rectangle Invitations

You’re likely still working out what flowers you’ll have present on your big day, but you can start enjoying Mother Nature’s bounty now with this Wedding Florals Wedding Invitation and its central theme of big, bold blooms. The stretch of flowers meandering across the invite is lush and elegant — use it as inspiration for the floral swags across the pews in your church or at the reception after the ceremony’s completion.

5. Enchanted Crown

Enchanted Crown | Rectangle Invitations

Invite loved ones to share in your joy with Enchanted Crown, a Wedding Invitation bursting with colorful flowers in shades of pink, blush, and white. Sprigs of greenery and little buds help the design feel even more fresh, and the stately font used for the majority of the wedding details helps your scripted names stand out just as they should.

6. Painted Majesty

Painted Majesty | Rectangle Invitations

Swoops of color wash across the front of Painted Majesty, an abstract yet romantic Wedding Invitation that combines traditional elements and a touch of contemporary art. Swap out the “reception to follow” script at the end of this design for a religious quote or Bible verse, and make this artsy invite into your dream Christian wedding invite.

7. Darling Digest

Darling Digest | Rectangle Invitations

There’s a streamlined modernity to Darling Digest that makes this design attractive to minimalists, but the soft gray coloring and cross shape joining your initials and names make the template work well as a religious Wedding Invitation too.

8. Monogram Bloom

Monogram Bloom | Rectangle Invitations

Monogram Bloom incorporates simple sprigs of flowers into a light and airy design worthy of your church wedding. The dainty bouquets are reminiscent of a boutonniere, adding even more romance and hinting at the wedding celebrations that lie ahead.

9. Cross My Heart

Cross My Heart | Rectangle Invitations

A non-traditional interpretation of a cross Wedding Invitation, Cross My Heart kicks off its design with two heart-shaped arrows in a perpendicular arrangement. The image represents the two of you coming together for one long-lasting relationship, but there’s also a religious undertone that offers a contemporary take on a well-known Christian motif.

10. Eternal Love

Eternal Love | Rectangle Invitations

Eternal Love carries the religious meaning and overarching theme of your upcoming Christian wedding right in the design’s name. The combination of graceful lettering and a clean, crisp background creates a template that’s beautiful as-is but also easy to personalize to match your wedding day aesthetic.

11. Simple Gathering

Simple Gathering | Rectangle Invitations

Simple Gathering starts out with three bold words: “Let’s gather together.” Switch that up to “God brought us together” or “Faith, Hope & Love” and you have a completely original Wedding Invitation that honors your relationship and your life as a committed Christian. Simply add in the words you'd like in a note for our designers.

12. Enchanting Wildflowers

Enchanting Wildflowers | All-in-One Wedding Invitations

Enchanting Wildflowers is a folded design, meaning your prospective guests will get a Wedding Invitation, envelope, and perforated RSVP postcard all wrapped into one stunning piece of stationery. We love the color-blocked arch backing up your wedding details almost as much as we love the sprightly wildflowers that would be well-matched for a boho Christian wedding or ceremony at a quaint country church.

13. Forever Exquisite

Forever Exquisite | Rectangle Invitations

From the lush purple coloring to the smart use of complementary fonts, Forever Exquisite leverages expert graphic design to create a gorgeous Wedding Invitation that works for Christian weddings and secular celebrations alike. The mention of “share in our joy” at the top adds a religious touch, or you can tweak the phrasing to more overtly recognize your faith.

14. Stacked Pair

Stacked Pair | Rectangle Invitations

Stacked Pair is another template that can turn into a religious Wedding Invitation with just a few small adjustments from our designers. Bold, oversized lettering alternates with your names and wedding details. String the three extra-large words together and you get “Our Wedding Day,” but that could easily become “Faith, Life, Love” or “Praise the Lord.” Let your heart and faith guide your creativity, and you’re sure to come up with something perfect.

15. DIY your own religious Wedding Invitation

What to write in a Christian Wedding Invitation

Most couples put a lot of thought into what they want to write on their Wedding Invitations — and for good reason. Your invite isn’t just functional, it’s also a keepsake that you’ll likely frame and look at fondly for years to come. Finding the right Christian Wedding Invitation wording can be tricky, as you’re trying to balance faith, sentiment, and personal preference, but these ideas should help you discover what you feel is most appropriate for your religion and your relationship.

A special opening

Your Christian wedding invitation should open with a message of love and faith. Remember that this first line sets the tone of your entire invite and should also lead into the invitation itself.

  • “Two lives, united in friendship and faith, now unite in the holy bonds of matrimony.”

  • “God has brought two people together to create one shared life.”

  • “God has blessed us with love.”

  • “Together with Christ, we are as one.”

  • “Our lives have been blessed by love for one another and by our faith in the Lord.”

  • “Blessed be the tie that binds our hearts in love and faith.”

Your favorite Bible verses

Including a Bible verse or two that’s particularly meaningful to you, your future spouse, and your families is a wonderful way to share your faith with your guests.

In addition to the verse suggestions shared below, you could also incorporate a portion of your favorite hymn.

  • "I am my beloved's, and my beloved is mine." – Song of Solomon 2:16

  • “My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.” – John 15:12

  • “Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves.” – Romans 12:10

  • “Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.” – Proverbs 3:3-4

  • "Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love." – Ephesians 4:2

  • "Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sin." – 1 Peter 4:8

  • "There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because He first loved us." – 1 John 4:18-19

  • "But at the beginning of creation, God 'made them male and female.' 'For this reason, a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.' So they are no longer two, but one flesh. Therefore, what God has joined together, let no one separate." – Mark 10:6-9

  • "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away." – 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Essential Wedding Invitation details

In addition to your chosen Christian wedding card message, your invite also has to include all the information and details typically included in a wedding invitation.

  • The name and address of the venue (likely your church)

  • The date and time of the ceremony

  • Any specific instructions regarding appropriate attire or request set forth by your church

  • The names of the hosts (typically the happy couple’s parents or it could be the couple themselves)

  • The couple’s names

  • Wedding website address
