What to Write in an Engagement Card for Your Brother

Your brother is engaged, which means he has found someone willing to put up with him for the rest of their life. In all seriousness, it is wonderful news, and a card from a sibling can be genuinely touching.

Whether you want to be sentimental, funny, or a bit of both, write something that feels like you. He will appreciate it more than he admits.

Brother, you have picked a good one. They make you laugh, they keep you grounded, and they somehow find your terrible jokes endearing. That is true love.
heartfelt
I would like to officially welcome your partner to the family and apologise in advance for everything. Congratulations, bro!
humorous
From the annoying little kid I shared a room with to the man about to get married -- what a transformation. Proud of you, mate. Really proud.
casual
This is the news I have been hoping to hear. You two are perfect together, and I cannot wait to stand by your side on the big day.

Writing Tips

Be yourself

Brothers usually communicate in their own shorthand. If your relationship runs on banter, write with banter. If it is more serious, go with that. Authenticity always wins.

Do not be afraid to be sentimental

Even if you normally take the mick, a genuine line of pride or love will mean a huge amount. You can always follow it up with a joke if it feels too raw.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if I do not know his partner very well?
Focus on your brother's happiness. Something like "anyone who makes you this happy is someone I want to know better" is warm without pretending you are closer than you are.
Should I mention being best man?
It is fine to hint at it with humour, but do not assume or put pressure on him. The best man decision is his to make in his own time.
