Wedding > Helpful Tips

  • When deciding how many invitations to order, allow for one invitation per family or couple. Not one invitation per guest.
     

  • Order an additional 10-25 extra sets of the wedding invitations and enclosures. Extras can be used as keepsakes or additions and mistakes and believe us mistakes do happen….
     

  • The actual street address should not be printed on the invitation. It should be reserved for the directional/accommodation card.
     

  • Response dates should be 2-4 weeks before wedding date. This allows for flexibility with caterers.
     

  • Some guests will forget to write in their response when mailing the reply card back to you. it’s a good idea to number the back of your reply cards with a faint penciled in number that you can correspond the guest name to on a separate list.
     

  • Be sure to have your invitation set weighed before mailing. The postage may very depending on how many enclosures are included as well the paper used and liners. And don’t forget to affix postage to the response set.
     

  • If available utilize the hand-cancel services at your local post office when mailing your invitations. There may be an additional fee for this service but it will minimize the scuffing and smashing of your invitation during the mailing process.
