Q.How do I phrase a belated wedding wish without sounding awkward?
The key is to acknowledge the delay briefly and sincerely, then quickly shift focus to your genuine happiness for them. A simple 'Forgive my tardiness, but...' or 'Though a little late, my heart is full of congratulations...' works well. Keep it warm, heartfelt, and focus on their future together.
Q.Should I still send a gift if my wishes are belated?
