During the process of ordering and sending out your letterpress wedding invitations, most brides have a lot of questions about how everything is supposed to happen. With so many small details to figure out, we thought we would make it easy and create a list so you know exactly what you need to do when it comes to your letterpress wedding invitations.
Do shop around online and look for printers with discounts or deals on letterpress wedding invitation cards. This can save you hundreds of dollars and ensures you are getting the best price.
Don’t assume all letterpress printers are the same. Ask to see some samples from your favorite 3-5 printers and choose the one whose work you like the best.
Do address the envelopes before inserting your wedding invitations. This prevents unsightly pen impression on your beautiful letterpress wedding invitations.
Don’t including registry information in invitations, save this for your bridal shower invitation card.
Do DIY when you feel you can make a beneficial addition. Think about DIYing an envelope liner or adding some extra flair to your invitation.
Don’t DIY your entire invitation set. This can end up costing you more time than the money is actually worth, and it is almost impossible to simulate the unique aesthetic appeal of letterpress with any other method than a printing press.
Do check online at the US postal service to see if they have any stamps that will match your wedding’s theme, color arrangements or invitation styles. Or, you can order custom stamps using the motif of your invitation set.
Don’t just assume someone is not coming just because they did not respond to the RSVP. Wait until about a week after the deadline and then:
Do call anyone that has not RSVP’d. Sometimes people just forget to drop the response in the mail.
With so many things to think about when it comes to your invitations, doesn’t it feel good to have a friend in the wedding card business?
After ordering her invitations from us, this bride had these kind words to say:
“Thanks for your hard work on my suite of invitations; you were a pleasure to work with. The invitations look phenomenal and the copper stamping looks exquisite. I’ll definitely be in touch. Take Care.” ~Anu
