Key Wedding Vocabulary and Expressions

🎉 Wedding Invitations "Have you got a wedding invitation yet?" "Don’t forget to RSVP before it’s too late." "Does the invitation say I can bring a guest?" "I haven’t been to a wedding for such a long time."

🎉 Preparations "What should I wear to the wedding?" "Is it formal or casual?" "I’m going to wear this suit. I think it’s the best option." "Should we buy something from the registry or give cash instead?"

🎉 Wedding Ceremony "How long do you think the ceremony will last?" "The bride looked stunning as she walked down the aisle." "You may now kiss the bride."

🎉 Wedding Reception "Where is the seating chart?" "Let’s grab a drink from the open bar." "What song are they playing for their first dance?" "The best man’s speech was hilarious." "The father of the bride’s toast made everyone tear up." "Everyone was on the dance floor all night—it was so much fun."

🎉 Post-Wedding Reflections "That was one of the most beautiful weddings I’ve ever been to." "The bride looked stunning, didn’t she?" "Did you see the groom’s uncle dancing? That was so funny." "They had to change the venue at the last minute. Can you believe it?" "The DJ was late, so the bride’s brother had to play music from his phone."

Practice and Reflect Weddings are filled with special moments and unique challenges, offering plenty of opportunities to use descriptive language and expressions. Practice these phrases and vocabulary by imagining conversations about weddings or reflecting on a wedding you’ve attended. Repetition and real-life practice will help you remember these expressions and use them naturally.
