• Wording of Wedding
Invitations
Old traditions still hold in the realm of wording your wedding invitation,
however, there are no longer strict rules which dictate how you choose your
wording. For a wonderful online resource which covers many possible wording
options, please visit www.verseit.com.
• Mailing Wedding Invitations
Invitations should be mailed six to eight weeks prior to the wedding. Be sure
to verify questionable zip codes and to weigh a completely assembled invitation
at the post office to determine the correct postage needed.
• Save the Date Announcements
It is now customary to send Save The Date Announcements several months
prior to sending out your wedding invitations. This will provide ample time
for out-of-towners to make travel arrangements in advance, as well as allow
your in-town guests to reserve your wedding date in their calendars.
• Response Cards
Response cards are a necessary part of any invitation. The card asks guests
if they plan on attending the wedding and may also offer them a choice of entrée
if this is needed in advance. The front of the reply envelope is printed with
the name and the address of the bride or whomever will be receiving guests'
responses. Return postage should be applied to the reply envelope. We also
offer reply postcards as a less formal option.
