Wedding
Notations



TELLING YOUR WORLD


We encourage our brides to talk about their wedding plans so that we can advise them about their invitations. If the bride is planning to invite many out of town guests or if the wedding is being celebrated on a holiday weekend, it is very wise to send save-the-date cards. They are usually sent out six months prior to the wedding date. Because invitations offer guests a preview of the formality and tone of the wedding, a great deal of thought should go into their selection. Formal wording should be sued for formal and church weddings. Individuality can be expressed by choosing unique sizes, textures, colors, overlays and ribbon trims. While announcements are nice to send to those friends who live far away, invitations are a bit more personal and do give the recipient an opportunity to attend or not. Unless the wedding is an extremely small and intimate affair, a reply card with a self-stamped, pre-addressed envelope should be enclosed with the invitation. Reply cards can also carry options such as dinner preferences and activity preferences if the wedding is a weekend affair. It is best to plan to mail invitations ten to twelve weeks prior to the event
