What is on the Poruwa ceremony order?

A typical sequence: arrival of the couple, ascending the Poruwa at the auspicious time, offering betel leaves, exchanging rings, tying the little fingers with gold thread, pouring water while the Jayamangala Gatha is sung, the gift of a white cloth to the bride's mother, breaking the coconut, lighting the oil lamp and stepping down. Every line is editable to match your ceremony.

Can I change the Sinhala wording?

The Sinhala lines are printed as part of the design. The English text boxes are editable, so you can change names, times and venues. For your own Sinhala wording, write it by hand or ask your printer to typeset it.

Is there a version without Buddhist symbols?

Yes. Both versions are included: one with ‘නමෝ බුද්ධාය’ above the invitation wording, and one with no religious symbols. For a Tamil wedding see our Tamil wedding invitation suite.

Is there a homecoming invitation?

Yes, a matching homecoming card with its own date and venue.

How do I get the files?

Straight after payment the download page opens with a button for every file, and we email you the same link. Nothing is posted.

How should I print them?

Open the PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader or your browser and print at 100% or ‘Actual size’, not ‘Fit to page’. Matte card of 200–300 gsm gives the nicest finish, but plain paper works too.

Can I print more than one copy?

Yes. The personal-use licence lets you print as many copies as you need for your own home, family and events, at home or at a print shop. Please do not share or resell the files.
