The Bismillah, and an optional verse

In Noor, the Bismillah is shown above your names in the lantern's glow, on by default, and you can switch it off if you prefer. You can also add Ar-Rum 30:21, the verse on spouses, affection and mercy, under the arch. The verse is always shown in Arabic, with its meaning in the guest's language. Both are a single switch in the create wizard and in your dashboard.

Other designs keep the opening simple and let your own wording do the work. If your family uses a particular opening phrase or dua, our guide to Muslim wedding invitation wording has examples with transliteration and the etiquette that native speakers notice.

One programme from the Katb al-Kitab to the walima

Many Muslim weddings are several gatherings rather than one: the Katb al-Kitab (the Nikah), a henna night, the wedding party and the walima. Add each one to your programme with its own date, time, venue and map link, and guests see a single timeline in date order, together with your main ceremony and reception. Noor and Midad give each day its own still life, and Qamariya its own stained-glass picture.

Some events are for close family only. Rather than sending different invitations, you can mention it in each event's note, and if you need a minimum age for guests, the RSVP can show an age notice in your own words.

Arabic and English, side by side

Add your names in Arabic script once and they are used wherever it makes sense. Noor, Midad and Qamariya show both scripts together in every language, Arabic large and Latin underneath; the other designs show your Arabic names to guests who open the invitation in Arabic. Every design on this page lays Arabic out right to left and loads its own Arabic typeface. More on that in our Arabic digital wedding invitations.

Frequently asked questions

Can we turn the Bismillah off?

Yes. In Noor the Bismillah is on by default and you can switch it off in the wizard or later in your dashboard. The Ar-Rum 30:21 verse is off by default and can be switched on the same way.

Can we add the Katb al-Kitab, henna night and walima?

Yes. Each one is an event type in the programme. Add a date, time and venue for each, and guests see them in one timeline with your ceremony and reception.

Is the invitation available in Arabic?

Yes, laid out right to left. Standard includes any three of English, Arabic, Swedish, Spanish and French, Customizable all five, and guests switch language on the invitation.

Can we write our names in Arabic?

Yes. Add both names in Arabic script and they appear to Arabic-speaking guests, or to everyone in Noor, Midad and Qamariya, which show both scripts together.

Where is the verse's meaning shown?

Ar-Rum 30:21 is always shown in Arabic under the arch. Guests reading in English, Swedish, Spanish or French also see its meaning in their language.
