Qudalyq is the matchmaking visit at which the families of the bride and groom meet, agree on the marriage and become quda (in-laws). The invitation is formal and short: who hosts, the date and the address, written with the respect owed to the other family.

What to write

Name both families or the couple whose union is being celebrated, and state the date, time and address. Qudalyq is usually a smaller, closer gathering than the wedding, so the guest list is short and personal.

Elders are still phoned in person; the online invitation carries the details and the map so nobody has to ask twice.
