Nikah Invitation Card Templates

A nikah card carries less text than a full wedding invitation, so the typography has to do more work. These four designs give the names room to breathe and keep the ceremony details in a clear second line, which is what makes a small card readable at arm's length.

Two of the designs use geometric line work built from rotated squares and a radial mandala - pattern families that sit comfortably alongside Arabic and Urdu lettering. Switch the card to Nastaliq, Amiri or Naskh in the editor and the whole layout flips to right-to-left with the spacing those scripts need.

If the phrasing is the part holding you up, there is a nikah wording example you can copy and adjust, alongside formal and modern ones for the reception card.

Common questions

What details go on a nikah invitation card?

The names of the couple, the families hosting, the date, the masjid or venue with its address, and the time - often given in relation to a prayer, such as after Jumu'ah. Many families open the card with the Bismillah line, which these templates leave space for.

Should the nikah and walima be on the same card?

Only if both happen on the same day at the same venue. When the walima falls on a different day it reads more clearly as a second card, or as a small insert behind the main one, so guests do not confuse the two dates.

Can these cards be printed in Urdu or Arabic?

Yes. Pick Nastaliq, Amiri or Naskh from the typeface list in the editor and the card switches to right-to-left, then type your own text into the boxes. The line spacing adjusts for those scripts automatically.
