How to use a wedding crossword in Canva

Use this editor to build the crossword itself, then move the finished SVG into Canva when you want to combine it with photos, a wedding newspaper, or matching stationery.

Create your crossword

1. Build the puzzle

Add your clues, try alternate layouts, and confirm that every important answer appears in the grid.

2. Download the SVG

Choose Download editable SVG. SVG files keep the grid and type sharp when you resize them.

3. Add it to Canva

Upload the SVG to your Canva project, place it on the page, and resize it from a corner. Keep enough room for guests to write inside each square.

4. Export for print

  • Use PDF Print for a wedding newspaper
  • Add crop marks only if your printer requests them
  • Print one proof before ordering the full quantity
