Blah


So did any of you guys acknowledge any relatives in the card, not bro's and sis but uncles and auntys, say a VIP section etc?

I didn't. Don't know about others. Our Walema invitation card did mention my grandmother in law's name as well along with the parents of the groom.

why would you do that? i mean, aunts and uncles.
the invitation acknowledges those who are hosting, i.e., paying, for the wedding. if your aunts and uncles are paying a large portion of your costs, then its appropriate to include their names, but otherwise it should be your parents only. siblings are mentioned usually because they "host" the mehendi/mayyun, etc. but not the actual wedding.
i don't usually see other names on invitations, but one of my clients requested the wording "Compliments of bro's name and sister's name" at the very bottom of their card.

Alienated


R.S.V.P is usually written at the bottom of the card and includes immediate hosts as 'Mr. & Mrs. so and so.'

speaking of which, i really think RSVP's should be printed on separate cards- it makes the whole invitation look cleaner and not crowded with info.
