Wedding Invitation Tips
November 16, 2008
Wedding invitations may be the first official notification many of your guests receive regarding your wedding, so it is important that you may a good impression, and set the scene for the type of wedding you intend to have. Wedding invitations should also contain all of the key information about the wedding that guests will need to know such as:
- Name of happy couple
- Date, time and location of the wedding ceremony
- Details of the reception
- Additional invitations to the wedding breakfast (if you are having one)
- Dress code (formal, informal).
- Details of any wedding themes
- Basic directions to the wedding ceremony and reception
- Instructions regarding wedding presents (i.e. if you have a wedding list with a specific store, or you would prefer to receive donations to your favourite charity instead)
- Ask your guests to reply by a certain date so that you can book the catering and ensure you can fit everyone in
- Ask your guests to let you know if they have any particular requirements such as disabled access or special diets.
To give you guests a chance to organize themselves it is important to send the wedding invitations out at least 2-3 months before the wedding. If you leave it too late many people may already have plans in place, especially over the weekend, or they may not be able to get transport to the wedding or time off from their work. Even if you know someone will not be able to come to your wedding it is polite to send them an invitation anyway, as their plans could change in the future.
Whether you are having printable wedding invitations, or are writing them yourself, make sure you order extra ones so that you can invite any guests you remember later on, and you may also want to order thank you cards in the same stationary, so that you can write to the guests after the wedding and thank them for making the effect to help you celebrate your big day.
