The Wedding Invitation Company: How to select your wedding stationery

Save the Day Cards

Save the Day cards are useful when your wedding is held in the traditional holiday periods of Easter and Summer. Sending Save the Day cards to your key guests makes sure that they have the date in their diaries in plenty of time. Save the Day cards are usually sent to family and close friends as well as guests who have a long distance to travel to the wedding and will require overnight accommodation

The Wedding Invitation

Sent to close family and friends this is the invitation to the wedding ceremony and reception and covers their invitation to your evening reception.

The Evening Invitation

This is sent to all the remaining guests to invite them to the evening reception to celebrate your wedding.

Reply Cards

Sending Reply Cards along with your wedding invitations helps ensure prompt replies. This is important to allow you to confirm the numbers attending to the venue in good time.

Order of Service

The Order of Service for the wedding ceremony itself covers all of the hymns, readings and prayers and the order in which they occur during the ceremony. Be sure to speak to your vicar or priest to agree the form which the ceremony will take.

Thank You Cards

We can provide traditional thank you cards continuing the theme of your wedding. A lot of brides now opt for the photo-card using one of your wedding images printed on the front with Thank You foiled in gold or silver. This is an ideal way of sending a picture of your wedding to those who could not manage to attend.

When to Send the Invitations

Send out the invitations at least six weeks before the Wedding Day. If your wedding is to take place in the holiday season then you should send them out earlier. This allows plenty of time for your guests to reply. It is always a good idea to find out from the venue when they need the final numbers and set your RSVP date on your Wedding Invitation cards a week or two before this date.
