How to write it

1. Keep it short. It will be read in a busy room with a hairdresser waiting.
2. Deliver it physically. A note handed to the room beats a text that arrives among fifty others.
3. Tell them to look up. The most common regret is that the day went past in a blur.
4. Do not add anything to their to-do list. No questions, no logistics, no requests.

Send it — and pair it with a gift

FAQ

What do you write to the bride on the morning of her wedding?

Something short and steadying — that today will be wonderful, and to take it in rather than rush. Avoid adding anything she has to think about.

Should partners exchange notes before the ceremony?

Many couples do, and most say it is the part of the day they remember most clearly.

When should it be delivered?

While they are getting ready, via someone in the room — a bridesmaid, best man or parent.

What do parents write?

That they are proud and that nothing changes. It is the line most people quote back years later.

What is a good short note?

“Today is going to be wonderful. Enjoy every single minute of it.”

How long should it be?

A few lines. It is read quickly, in a crowded room, usually more than once.
