Announcing Your Temple Sealing with Grace and Beauty
A temple sealing is one of the most sacred and joyful events in the Latter-day Saint faith. The invitation that announces this occasion should reflect both the reverence of the ordinance and the celebration that follows. At MCC Wedding Invitations, we specialize in creating temple sealing invitations and announcements that strike that perfect balance.
Our team understands the unique considerations that come with temple sealing invitations — from proper wording to handling multiple events and varying guest lists. We bring that expertise to every order, ensuring your invitation communicates clearly while looking absolutely beautiful.
Understanding Temple Sealing Invitations
Temple sealing invitations serve a unique purpose in wedding stationery. Unlike a typical wedding invitation that simply invites all guests to one ceremony, temple sealing invitations often need to communicate several things at once:
- The sealing announcement — informing your broader circle that you are being sealed in the temple
- Reception or open house details — inviting guests to celebrate with you after the sealing
- Temple-specific information — for guests who hold temple recommends and will attend the sealing ceremony itself
Managing these different layers of information requires careful design and thoughtful wording. That is exactly where our expertise comes in.
Design Styles for Temple Sealing Invitations
We offer a range of design styles that honor the significance of your temple sealing:
Classic and Formal
Traditional typography, refined borders, and elegant layouts that convey the solemnity and beauty of the occasion. These designs use timeless elements like script fonts, subtle flourishes, and balanced compositions that feel appropriate for such a significant announcement.
Modern and Clean
Minimalist designs with contemporary fonts, clean lines, and generous white space. These invitations feel fresh and sophisticated while maintaining the reverence appropriate for a temple sealing announcement.
Soft and Romantic
Watercolor florals, gentle color palettes, and delicate design elements that bring warmth and tenderness to your invitation. These designs are popular with couples who want their invitation to feel inviting and personal.
Photo-Enhanced
Combine a beautiful engagement photo with your temple sealing announcement. Our photo wedding invitations integrate your image seamlessly into the layout, adding a personal touch that your guests will love.
Navigating Wording with Confidence
Wording a temple sealing invitation can feel daunting, especially when you need to communicate multiple events to different groups of guests. Our team has extensive experience helping couples craft wording that is clear, respectful, and appropriate.
Common wording scenarios we help with include:
- Announcing the sealing to your full guest list while inviting everyone to the reception
- Providing temple details for recommend-holding guests without excluding others
- Wording for open houses that take place on a different day than the sealing
- Ring ceremony invitations for couples who want a second ceremony for guests who could not attend the temple
- Blended family situations where parents and stepparents need to be acknowledged
If you want to explore wording options before reaching out, our comprehensive wording guide provides templates and examples for every common scenario. You can also browse our temple sealing invitation wording examples for ready-to-use phrasing you can adapt to your situation.
Building Your Complete Invitation Suite
A temple sealing often involves more details than a single invitation card can hold. That is why we include free insert cards with every order. Your invitation suite might include:
- Main invitation card announcing the sealing and primary celebration event
- Reception detail card with time, venue, and other specifics
- Open house card if your open house is separate from the reception
- Temple information card with address and arrival time for sealing guests
- Registry or gift information card
Every piece is designed to match your main invitation, creating a polished and cohesive suite. And with our envelope printing service, you can complete the look with professionally printed addresses on every envelope.
Multiple Events, One Beautiful Suite
Latter-day Saint weddings often include multiple events — the temple sealing, a luncheon, a reception, an open house, and sometimes a ring ceremony. Communicating all of these events clearly to your guests is essential, and our invitation suites are designed to handle that complexity with elegance.
We help you decide which details belong on the main invitation, which should go on insert cards, and how to organize everything so your guests know exactly where to be and when. If you are unsure about guest list etiquette, our article on who to invite to a temple sealing vs. reception offers helpful guidance. The result is an invitation suite that feels organized, beautiful, and easy to understand.
