After planning and organizing your wedding, you now see it coming into reality. After coming up with the time, date and place of the wedding and with the bridal entourage already complete, you are now ready to draft your wedding invitation. You have to be precise and straight to the point when it comes to the messages on the wedding invitations. Make sure that you double check for any wrong information as well as grammar and spelling mistakes before you send them out to your guests.
If the venue of your wedding reception is going to be held at the same place of the wedding ceremony you can use corner copy on your invitations. A corner copy is a footnote at the bottom left or right hand corner of the invitation. It is a place where you can put information about the reception, the dress code or other relevant information. A corner copy footnote can have up to four lines of sentences. But not all invitations can accommodate a corner copy so you have to inform your stationer if you want to add a corner copy on your invitation.
Wedding reception cards usually contains the information regarding the time and place of the reception. It has the same size as your RSVP cards. You will not need an envelope for these cards because these can be included as wedding invitation inserts.

You can also indicate in the wedding reception cards if the reception to be held is an adult reception so the guests need not bring their children anymore. The wedding reception cards will also contain information regarding the type of gift preference of the couple. If they prefer cash or not.
