Reception
Cards
Whether or not you’ll include enclosures with your
invitations depends on a number of factors. When
the reception is held at a location different from
that of the ceremony, it is common to include a
separate reception card with the invitation. If
the reception is large and the ceremony intimate,
though, the invitation is for the reception, and
a ceremony card is enclosed just for those invited
to the ceremony.
- When the reception and ceremony are at different
locations, include the ceremony site at the
bottom of the invitation or on a separate card.
- If the reception and ceremony share a site,
there’s no need to repeat the location.
- If only some guests are invited to the reception
or to the ceremony, it’s mandatory to use separate
invitations and reception cards.
- When your reception doesn’t immediately follow
the ceremony, be sure to mention the time.

Maps and
Directions
Direction cards or nicely drawn maps can be printed
in the style of the invitation. If additional information
(transportation arrangements, accommodations) is
to be supplied, send it in a separate envelope after
the guest has responded to the initial invitation. |

Reply Cards
The last element, the reply card, is a recent invention.
In these busy times, realists enclose a small card
with a stamped, self-addressed envelope, and hope
for the best. |
