When do I order my wedding invitations? Answer:
Order your wedding invitations about four to five months from your wedding date. Calculate it this way . . . from your wedding
date back up three or four weeks for your Rsvp date, then back up another four weeks for mailing; and then another four weeks
for ordering and preparing your invitations for mailing.
How do I determine my Rsvp date? Answer:
From your wedding date, back up three or four weeks for your Rsvp date. You will need to give a guarantee to your facility
the week prior to your wedding and you need about two weeks for call-backs to those who did not respond.
How
long does it take for invitations to come in once they are ordered? Answer: A lot depends on the company
but most orders can be filled within two weeks. Our usual method of shipping is UPS. We only ship to the USA and
not to post office boxes.
I need help with wording - where can I find ideas? Answer:
Go to this website www.verseit.com (see our "View Invitation Links" page).
How many invitations should I order? Answer:
Proper etiquette dictates that invitations are sent to all relatives, guests and members of the wedding party. All guests
over 18 years of age should receive their own separate invitation. Caution: It is very expensive to place a reorder for 25
additional invitations so make sure you have a "cushion" in your count. Do not count number of people attending!
Count invitations needed (ex: one per couple) Yes, you can send one invitation to a couple who live together but are not yet
married. Her name goes on the first line . . . his name on the second line. Etiquette advises against this; however,
it has become "acceptable" in some etiquette circles.
Can I change the color or design on
my invitation? Answer: The color of paper and design cannot be changed, unless it is one where you have
a choice of motifs. You can change the color of ink and to add even more color, perhaps choose a matching or coordinating
envelope lining.
We don't want children at our reception. How and where can I indicate this? Answer: The etiquette gurus dictate that this is improper and should not appear anywhere. However,
more brides are requesting this wording. The best place for stating this would be on the Reception card. Suggested wording
might be: Adult Reception immediately following ceremony.
Can I change my order once it is submitted? Answer: On most online sites, you cannot. We place a personal phone call to you to assure that
every aspect of your online order is complete. However, once submitted to production we cannot guarantee that changes can
be made without additional charges. If you are unsure, request a black and white proof of just the invitation.
The cost is usually $10.00 for most companies.
