Ayat Kad Kahwin — 45 Ready-to-Use Wedding Card Wording Examples
Ayat kad kahwin means wedding card wording — the invitation text on a Malay wedding card, from formal ayat where parents extend the invitation, to short modern lines, Islamic doa for the couple, and wording for the bersanding and walimatulurus. Below are more than 45 ready-to-use examples you can copy, swap in your names and date, and paste straight into your digital wedding card.
Ayat kad kahwin refers to the wording printed or displayed on a wedding invitation — formal, simple, Islamic or English. Many couples get stuck here because they want it to sound sincere without running too long or feeling awkward. Every example on this page already follows the standard format — names, date, time and venue — so you only need to copy it, replace the bracketed [ ] placeholders, and use it as is.
Formal ayat kad kahwin (parents extend the invitation)
Formal wording suits a more traditional card, where both sets of parents extend the invitation on behalf of the couple. It works especially well on songket, batik or classic-style cards where courtesy and protocol matter.

Wording when the couple invites in their own name
More couples now invite in their own name rather than their parents'. The tone is more personal, and it suits a majlis the couple is organising themselves.

Bersanding & walimatulurus invitation wording
The bersanding and walimatulurus are often held separately from the akad nikah. The wording needs to name which event it is, so guests are not confused about the date.
With deep gratitude, we invite Dato'/Datin/Mr/Mrs to the walimatulurus of our children [Groom's Name] & [Bride's Name] on [Date], from [Time] until [End Time], at [Venue].
The bersanding of [Groom's Name] & [Bride's Name] will take place on [Date] at [Venue]. Your presence and blessings would mean a great deal to us.
