Wedding Invitations create the first impression of your wedding. Guests will usually judge the type of wedding & make up their mind of coming to your wedding when they see the wedding invitation. Some Quick Tips for making a Wedding Invitation Card memorable for your guests:

  1. The content of the Wedding invitation card should mention all information clearly:
    • Name of the would be bride & groom.
    • Educational qualifications of the bride & groom. (this is optional)
    • Name of the parents and their residential address with contact details.
    • The date & details of the functions, venues & timings. Also do mention if the events are accompanied with lunch or dinner or snacks.
    • Names of close cousins, uncles & aunts are mentioned in the invitation card. This is optional as per one’s tradition.

  4. If you don’t want gifts then ensure that you mention & highlight this clearly on the invitation card.
  5. Decide the number of the leaflets to be attached.
