Wedding Card Matter in Marathi (लग्नपत्रिका)

Marathi wedding card matter (लग्नपत्रिका) usually begins with "॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥", names the groom as चि. and the bride as चि. सौ. कां. with their parents, gives the wedding date and muhurat, lists functions such as हळद, सीमांतपूजन and अक्षता, and ends with a request to attend with family and bless the couple, signed by the निमंत्रक. Below is ready-to-use wedding card matter in Marathi for the groom's side, the bride's side, the programme and WhatsApp.

How a Marathi wedding card is structured

1. Invocation – ॥ श्री गणेशाय नमः ॥ and often the family deity (कुलदैवत).
2. Heading – ॥ शुभ विवाह ॥ and सस्नेह निमंत्रण.
3. The couple – चि. [वराचे नाव] and चि. सौ. कां. [वधूचे नाव], with the parents' names.
4. Date and muhurat – वार, दिनांक and the time of the अक्षता.
5. Programme – साखरपुडा, हळद, सीमांतपूजन, शुभविवाह, स्वागत समारंभ.
6. Venue – the मंगल कार्यालय or hall, with address.
7. Request and names – the invitation to bless the couple, then निमंत्रक, आपले नम्र and स्वागतोत्सुक.

Many families also mention the कुलदैवत below the invocation, and some add a short note about gifts, such as "आपले आशीर्वाद हाच आमचा आहेर" (your blessings are our gift). Keep the language respectful and simple, so that elders and younger guests can read it easily.
