Frequently Asked Questions

How many invitations do I need to order?

Our invitations are ordered in quantities of 25. When calculating how many invites you will need, remember to take into consideration one invitation per couple.

When should I order my invitations?

It is advisable to order invitations at least 3 to 4 months prior to your wedding date. This time frame will allow you sufficient tiem for assembling and addressing the invitations.

When should we ask for the reply cards back?

You should request that response cards be returned by a date that is one month from the date of the wedding. This will allow you to have at least 2 weeks to receive responses and 2 weeks where you have a full guest count for your caterers and seating arrangements.

Because response cards are often returned unsigned or illegible, it is suggested that you number - code your guest list on the back of each response card with small print on the lower right corner for ease of tracking whose response card has been returned.

When should I mail my invitations?

Invitations should be mailed 8 to 10 weeks prior to the wedding. Be sure to verify questionable postal codes and to weight a completely assembled invitation at the post office to determine the correct postage needed.

Can I enclose a card informing my guests where I have registered?

It is never appropriate to include your gift registry information with your wedding invitations. That information is best spread by word-of-mouth by your wedding entourage, your family, and close friends.

The word-of-mouth practice should also be used if you are requesting donations to charities instead of gifts, requesting cash gifts, or requesting no gifts at all.

When do you use a "Save The Date" card?

When your guest list consists of family and friends who are spread out over several countries or your wedding is held on or near a national holiday, you may wish 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.
