Invitations
Daytime and evening invitations if you are inviting additional guests to join your celebrations later. You should normally send out your invitations approximately 6-8 weeks before your wedding. For summer wedding/bank holidays it is recommended that you send your invites about 3 months prior. We advice that you order 14-16 weeks prior to your wedding, however shorter times can be arranged.
Order of Service
This is helpful if you are getting married in a church as it will save your guests juggling hymn books and prayer books. If you are having a civil ceremony your guests might find it useful. You will need to provide the Order of Service as you would like it printed, once you have agreed it with the church.
RSVP Cards
Some Brides and Grooms and their families prefer to provide guests with a co-ordinating reply card. You will require one per invitation you send out.
Menus
These can often be provided by the the reception venue but may not fully co-ordinate with your theme. If you would like your perfect day to be co-ordinated throughout then you will need to order 2-4 per table (4 menus are recommended if you have more than 8 guests on a table).
Place Cards
You will need to provide the reception venue with these if you are having a sit down meal and want your guests to sit at certain tables. They can normally be ordered blank or with the names printed on. An alternative is to combine the menu with the place card.
Table Plans
You will need one of these if you are having a sit down meal and want your guests to sit at certain tables.
Thank You Cards
You will undoubtedly receive a number of presents and you can have a lovely finish to your wedding with coordinated Thank You Cards.
