Anand Karaj invitation wording for a Sikh wedding
4 min read · Updated 28 October 2026
An Anand Karaj invitation usually opens with ੴ (Ik Onkar), invites guests to the gurdwara for the ceremony, and lists the surrounding functions, from the Jaggo and Maiyan to the reception. Gurdwara etiquette is worth a gentle mention for guests who haven't attended one before.
What to include
- ੴ at the top, and often a line of Gurbani chosen by the family.
- The couple's names with Singh and Kaur, and their parents.
- Milni time, Anand Karaj time and the gurdwara's name and address.
- Langar after the laavan, and the reception details if any.
- A short note: heads covered, shoes removed, and no alcohol or tobacco at the gurdwara.
Sample wording
ੴ With the grace of Waheguru, S. Harpreet Singh & Sdn. Manjeet Kaur Gill request your presence at the Anand Karaj of their son Jasraj Singh with Simran Kaur, daughter of S. Gurdeep Singh & Sdn. Navneet Kaur Sandhu Sunday, 14 February · Milni 9 am · Anand Karaj 10 am Gurdwara Sahib, Ranjit Avenue, Amritsar · Langar to follow
Please cover your head and remove your shoes at the gurdwara. Head scarves will be available at the entrance.
