What do you write in a wedding card for a friend?
Match the card to how close you really are. For a close friend, that means something only you could write: the night they first mentioned their partner, the plan you made at fifteen, the way they looked at the vows. For a friend from work or college you see twice a year, warm and simple is right. "Wishing you both a lifetime of Sunday mornings, inside jokes and each other" is lovely without claiming a closeness that isn't there.
Either way, the shape is the same: congratulate them, say one thing about them or the two of them, and wish them well for what comes next. Three sentences is plenty. Address it to both of them. The partner will read it too, and a card that only talks to your friend can feel like it's leaving them out.
What do you say to your best friend on their wedding day?
Say what their friendship has meant, then hand them over gracefully. Best-friend messages work when they look back (the sleepovers, the bad decisions, the years of being each other's person) and then turn to the new partner with warmth, and a gentle warning if that's your style. "To my best friend and the person lucky enough to get you: treat them well, or answer to me" does both in one line.
If you're giving a speech, keep the card different. The speech is for the room: stories, jokes, a toast. The card is for them alone, read later, probably more than once. Put the thing you'd be too emotional to say out loud in the card.
Is a funny wedding message okay?
With a good friend, yes, and they'll probably expect it. The rule is to joke about marriage in general, or about your friend, never about the partner, their past relationships or whether it'll last. "You're officially someone else's problem now" is affectionate. Anything that could make the new partner's family wince isn't. If the card will be read by grandparents, pair the joke with one sincere line.
What do you write if you can't make it to the wedding?
Say you're sorry to miss it, congratulate them, and make a plan to celebrate later. Keep the reason out of the card, or to one short clause. They know you'd be there if you could. Send the message before the day, so it isn't lost in the flood of photos afterwards, and if there's a live stream, tell them you'll be watching. Then follow through on the dinner you promised.
Tu, tum or aap in a Hinglish wedding wish?
Use what you already use with your friend. Most close friends say tu, and a wish in tum can feel oddly formal from someone who's called you pagal for fifteen years. Two lines here are clearly for one side: the "bhai… bhabhi" line is to a male friend, and the "jiju" line is to a female friend, since that's what friends often call her husband. The Hindi lines use तुम, which works for friends of any age.

Questions
Before you send it
What is a good wedding message for a friend?
Something that fits how close you are. For a close friend: "I've watched you find your person, and it's one of the best things I've ever seen." For a friend you see less often: "Wishing you both a lifetime of Sunday mornings, inside jokes and each other."
What do I write in my best friend's wedding card?
Look back at your friendship, then welcome the partner: "From making wedding plans at sleepovers to standing next to you today. Congratulations, best friend." Address the card to both of them.
What is a funny wedding wish for a friend?
"Congratulations! You're officially someone else's problem now. I've never been happier." Joke about your friend or marriage in general, never about the partner.
What should I say if I can't attend my friend's wedding?
Apologise, congratulate them and plan something: "Not being at your wedding is killing me. First round's on me when I see you both." Send it before the day.
How do I say congratulations on your wedding in Hindi?
"शादी मुबारक हो" (shaadi mubarak ho) is the everyday wish, and "शादी की ढेर सारी बधाई" is a warm alternative. To a friend in Hinglish: "Shaadi mubarak ho, dost!"
