Wedding card space is smaller than almost anyone plans for. The card is often shared, frequently sitting next to an envelope, and a message that does not fit gets squeezed into handwriting nobody can read at the reception or afterwards.
Everything in this set is under 25 words and finished at that length. They are also written to survive being read aloud and being read years later by people who have never met you, which is why none of them lean on an inside reference.
This is the natural register for a colleague you like but do not know outside work: warm, contained, presuming nothing about their private life. If they are a close friend or family, the main wedding page has messages with room to say something specific about the two of them — and there, specificity is worth the extra lines.
