Sending Wedding Invites To Celebrities: Where To Mail?

It's not uncommon for couples to send wedding invitations to celebrities, whether it's to add excitement to their big day or simply to have fun with extra invites. While it's unlikely that a celebrity will attend the wedding, some may respond with a personalised message or autographed photograph, making for a fun keepsake. When sending an invitation to a celebrity, it's a good idea to include the date and location of the wedding, a brief explanation of why you feel a connection to them, and why you would like them to be there. It's also important to send the invitation early and be mindful of their busy schedules.

What to include in the invite

When sending a wedding invitation to a celebrity, it is important to send it early so they have plenty of time to respond. It is also beneficial to include the following:

• The date and location of the wedding
• A brief message explaining why you are inviting them and why you would like them to attend
• A sentence or two about why you feel a connection with the celebrity

It is also worth noting that celebrities are busy people and may not be able to attend your wedding, even if they want to.

If you are inviting a company, rather than an individual celebrity, the invitation can be less formal. You can send it to the company's public relations department and let them know why you love their brand and what their products mean to you as a couple.

How to address the envelope

When addressing wedding invitations to celebrities, there are no hard and fast rules. It is always best to use their formal name and title (if they have one), but you can also get away with using a more familiar tone. For example, if you are inviting Jennifer Lawrence, you could address the envelope as "Miss Jennifer Lawrence" or simply "Jennifer Lawrence".

When it comes to addressing wedding invitations, if you are unsure what to do, it is best to err on the side of caution and go with the formal option.

• The Honorable [President] & Mrs. [First Lady] The White House Greetings Office, Room 39 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue NW Washington, DC 20502
• Barack Obama & Michelle Obama: To request a greeting, fill out this form for the former President and First Lady.
• The King of England: The Secretary to His Majesty King Charles III Buckingham Palace London, England SW1A 1AA
• Kate Middleton & Prince William: The Prince and Princess of Wales Clarence House London, England SW1A 1BA
• Mickey and Minnie Mouse: The Walt Disney Company 500 South Buena Vista Street Burbank, CA 91521
• Beyoncé: Beyoncé Knowles c/o ICM Partners 65 East 55th Street New York, NY 10022 USA
• John Legend: John Legend Friends At Work 3331 Caroline Ave Culver City, CA 90232 USA

Remember to send your invitations early, so that the celebrities have plenty of time to respond. It is also a good idea to include a brief message explaining why you feel a connection with the celebrity and why you would like them to attend your wedding.

What kind of response to expect

When sending wedding invitations to celebrities, it is important to manage your expectations. While it is not impossible for celebrities to attend your wedding, it is rare. Celebrities are busy people with packed schedules, so it is best to go into the process expecting a personal response or congratulatory note at best.

That being said, it is not unheard of for celebrities to send "respectfully declined" RSVP cards or even autographed photos. Some celebrities who have been known to respond to wedding invitations include Peyton Manning, Jimmy Kimmel, Zach Galifianakis, Oprah Winfrey, Ellen Degeneres, Peter Dinklage, and Peter Capaldi.

If you are hoping for a response, it may be worth inviting celebrities who have a track record of responding to fan mail. Additionally, consider including a brief message in your invitation explaining your connection to the celebrity and why you would like them to attend.

Keep in mind that, while receiving a response from a celebrity can be exciting, your wedding day will be full of special moments and memories that will take precedence.

Examples of celebrity responses

While it is uncommon for celebrities to attend the weddings of their fans, some do respond to wedding invitations. Here are some examples of celebrity responses:

Where to find celebrity addresses

When it comes to finding celebrity addresses to send wedding invitations to, there are a few options to consider. One approach is to search for websites dedicated to listing celebrity addresses for fan mail. These websites can provide you with the addresses you need to send your invitations. Additionally, some websites offer guides on how to contact celebrities, which can be helpful if you're unsure about the best way to reach them.

Another option is to use Google to find public P.O. boxes or company addresses for the celebrities you wish to invite. This method was used by a bride who sent invitations to various celebrities and companies, as featured in a viral TikTok video. She simply searched for the public addresses on Google and was able to send her invitations without any issues.

It's worth noting that some celebrities may have specific addresses for fan mail, which can increase your chances of receiving a response. For example, if you want to invite Mickey Mouse to your wedding, you can send your invitation to the Walt Disney Company's address in Burbank, California, or to the P.O. Box address for Walt Disney World in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. Similarly, if you're interested in inviting the President of the United States, you can send your invitation to the White House Greetings Office, and you can expect to receive a generic card signed by the President and First Lady.

Lastly, there are online forums where people share their experiences and the addresses they used when inviting celebrities to their weddings. These forums can be a valuable source of information and can give you an idea of which celebrities are more likely to respond to your invitation.
