A future bride does not want stilted language on her invitations. She does not want cryptic language. She does not want slang words on her invitation. The future bride wants a romantic tone to her invitation. She thus needs to use creative wording.

So how can a future bride find creative wording for her wedding invitations? She needs to consult with those who are familiar with romantic and spiritual verse. She might want to begin her search at a public library. She might want to purchase software that is full of creative words.

A librarian might well suggest that the future bride look at some of the poems by Rumi. Rumi was a famous Persian poet. Almost everything he wrote took on a slightly romantic tone. A Rumi poem could guide a future bride in need of creative wording for her wedding invitations.

If a future bride can not get hold of a book with verse by Rumi, she might try looking for a way to view some Persian movies. In fact, my husband has purchased a Persian movie on DVD. It is called The Lizard. I was most impressed by the romantic nature of the poetic verse quoted in that movie.

I also know of one man in our City who collects poetry books. He has some of Rumi’s books. I met him while participating in our City’s interfaith group. A future bride should not hesitate to examine religious writings, even if she is not having a ceremony that adheres to the specifics of any one religion.

A future bride might want to look at some of the Baha’i writings. The founder of that Faith was born in Persia, the country that is now Iran. Since Rumi is a Persain poet, that prophet and founder was familiar with Rumi’s poems. He appreciated the beauty of those poems, and he put elements of Rumi’s work in his own writings

A future bride does not need to conduct a time-consuming search on the Internet. There is software that can guide her to just the right group of Baha’i writings. That software is called “Oceans.” It can be purchased by contacting a local Baha’i community.

A future bride might want to visit a professor of religion at a college or university. He could suggest sources of Hindu verse that might fit her needs. She could use that verse to develop creative wording for her wedding invitations.
