Here is a handy guide to Wedding Stationery and a few links to hints and tips to help you organize your special day
Wedding Invitations -
There is no set rule of when to send your invitations out, but do give your guests plenty of time for them to make any arrangements before the big day. I would advise to send invitations no later than 12 weeks before your wedding. If you are inviting guests from abroad then give them plenty of time so they can book flights and accomodation. Invitations are traditionally sent by the hosts of the day. You will need 1 invitation per household and you may want to add an RSVP date as you cannot finalise the catering or seating arrangements until all guest have replied. Sending rsvp cards will also make this easier for your guests. Our rsvp cards come with printing of return address as standard at no extra cost.
Evening Invitations -
Are used to invite guests to the Evening Celebration only. They are usually sent out the same time as the Wedding Invitations
Reply Cards -
These are sent out with all invitations to allow a quick response from your guests and are supplied with envelopes
Thank you cards -
Are a polite way to say thank you to all guests for the gifts received. Remember to include those that could not attend the wedding
Order of Service Booklets -
These inform your guests of what to expect during the service or the days celebrations. They are given out when entering the venue by the Ushers and Best Man. You can allow one per guest and extra for the choir and clergy or alternatively just one order of service for 2 people would be plenty. All Order of Service information should be checked by the vicar prior to ordering. Once confirmed just let us know the details.
