oPrepare the final list of the guests.
Particularly for the people who have a limited budget, the quantity of wedding invitations bought should cover the number of guests.
An estimate with a little allowance for omissions or errors will be enough.
If the type of your invitation requires an envelope, then buy some extra envelopes, to avoid shortage which may arise due tor errors or mistakes in addressing the wedding invites.
oUse the appropriate titles while addressing the wedding invitations.
Weddings are almost formal, so you have to write the guests' names with the proper titles such as Mr.
/Mrs.
/Ms.
/Hon.
/Dr.
/Fr.
Etc.
Nothing can be worse than sending wedding invites with the guest's name written carelessly.
oGet yourself involved in the creation of the invites, especially when you're getting them printed.
Though when you're buying predesigned, generic wedding invitations from local bridal shops or bookstores, yet you should have the final word on their design.
oYou can politely decline when you don't want the children coming to the function.
For instance, you can write Mr.
and Mrs.
John instead of Mr.
and Mrs.
John and family.
Should you consider this as not sufficient, then you can insert the phrase 'reception for adults only' in the invites.
You can also spread the word that you're not including children in the function.
oRemember to mention about the dress code for the ceremony in your invites.
Some weddings may be formal, while others may not be, particular when it's a garden or beach wedding.
For any person who's been invited to a marriage function, the first question arising in his/her mind is always about the dress to wear for the ceremony.
So to make your invitees feel relaxed and at the same time excited about your wedding, you should inform them what they should be wearing at the function.
It's sure they'll feel pleased and relieved to get this additional information.
Wedding invitations form an essential, integral component of any wedding celebration, as they announce the forthcoming union of two hearts in a formal manner.
Without them, your guests will not get the proper information about your desire to have their presence in the most important event in your life; certainly they won't like to be a gatecrasher at the function.
So, as you've already decided to spend on your wedding invitations, then you may as well do it in the right manner.
