WHEN WRITING YOUR INVITATION - DON'T FORGET...
This is probably the first time you will have to write text for a wedding invitation, and more than likely the only time. Although it is completely up to you what you write and how you write, there are a few things that must be mentioned in an invitation.
The first is the names of the bride and groom this may seem obvious but we often receive text with one or both the names missing. We will never print an invitation without the names of the bride and groom, however if these are in the initial text this will speed up the proofing and printing process.
Your wedding date is the second most important piece of information in your wedding invite. If your date is not on a Saturday it also pays to mention the day of the week. There are more and more weddings being held on a Friday of even a Thursday. This just makes it a little clearer for your guests.
We will be adding to this article over the next couple of weeks so check back from time to time.
YOUR TEXT AND YOUR WEDDING INVITATION
Sometimes it's not just a matter of choosing a card and writing your invitation. Both the invitation and the text need to match, both in style and format. When it comes to style a classic wedding invitation needs a formal text. With a boheme or champetre invitation the text can be a little more relaxed, you can let your creativity flow a little more, go a little crazy. When it comes to format it is difficult to fit a long text on a smail wedding invitation. If you have a very small invitation text it can be difficult to balance on a large invitation. With all our models we can always move a few images or even delete images to gain a little space however it is always better to start with a text or invitation at the correct format.
FREE CUSTOMISATION OF ALL OF OUR RANGE OF STATIONERY
We at Invited to realise that no two bride and groom are alike. Everyones idea of the perfect wedding stationery is different. Our goal is to give you the invitation set that fits you perfectly. To do this we have decided to make alterations to our range for FREE. A change of colour, paper or ribon or the addition of a photo. When ordering your stationery it is possible to note the alteration require.
WHEN SHOULD I SEND OUT MY WEDDING STATIONERY ?
10 years ago the answer to this question was 6 weeks before the wedding date, however, this depends on many factors. The size of your wedding, the time of year, whether you have international quests, the traiter etc. The larger the wedding the more time you will need to organise the day and also your guests. If your wedding is in a small village with limited accommodation make sure you leave your guest enough time to book a hotel or make other arrangements. The majority of weddings are held during the summer. This is also the peak holiday period so you may want to get your invitaitions out before uncle John plans that big overseas trip. Your traiter or the restaurant in charge of organising your wedding reception will also need to know the number of people attending in advance so make sure you talk to them about dates. Although there are no fixed rules, in general we would suggest sending out your wedding stationery between 4 and 6 months before your wedding date.

We propose this service free of charge. All you have to do is to note the alterations you would like when you are entering your text.

We will then developpe one of these ideas through to the final invitation. Finally we will produce a sample of your invitation. This design fee also includes the developement of everything you may require for your wedding day, ie Menus, seating plan, wedding book right through to thank you cards.
WEDDING LIST - CAN I ADD MY WEDDING LIST DETAILS TO MY INVITATION ?
This is a good question and can go either way. The official and formal answer is "no"...however unless you are having a very classic formal wedding we would suggest that it's OK, and we would even say that it is the perfect place to add this information. Information about your wedding list can be printed either on the back page or at the bottom of the main invitation, just above you contact details and the RSVP. We woulds suggest printing in a smaller font, or a lighter colour as these detail need to be seen but are not priority.
NO KIDS, NO PROBLEM
Whether it's for security reasons, for example there's a large un fenced pond at the venue, or whether you just want a more intimate wedding day finding the right words to announce this to your family and friends can be quite delicate. A few suggestios for this might be : Although we love your children, we regretfully cannot accommodate them at our wedding venue due to restricted numbers, or. “Respectfully, an adult only occasion (18+). A more intimate way of announcing this might be to add a personlised hand writen note to the invitation.
WEIGHT VS QUALITY
When it comes to sending your wedding invitation the lighter the better. To send out your invitation and use only one postage stamp the enveloppe must weigh less than 20 g. This is next to impossible unless we print on a very light paper, which we do not recommend, or we use a simple format. We have a very small number of wedding invitation the come in under the 20 g weight limit. Typically these invitations are a rectangle or square format printed on both sides, a relativelly simple format however we do not compromise the paper quality. Ideally we would suggest that you keep in mind the fact that you may need to add two stamps to the enveloppe. The other option might be to deliver some of your wedding invitations by hand. For instance make use of the christmas / new years holiday to deliver by hand your invite to family members during the period.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A COCKTAIL AND A VIN D'HONNEUR
Although for the majority of couples cocktail and vin d'honneur are the same thing, there is actually a differnce. The traditional Vin d'honneur is held directly after the ceremony, usualy somewhere close to the ceremony venue.
