INVITE PROTOCOL Host names

The word “and” in between two names usually implies that those people are married. Names of unmarried hosts or guests should be stacked. The phrase “request the honor of your presence” is usually reserved for a church or place of worship. You can spell it as either “honor” or “honour.”

The details

Don’t use abbreviations. Traditionally, middle names, street information and state names are spelled out. Registry information is typically included with bridal shower invitations or word of mouth, not invitations.

Reception cards

If the ceremony and reception are held at the same venue, use “Reception to follow” at the bottom of the invitation. If held at a different location, it should be treated as a separate event. Include a card with the event details.

Activities cards

Activities cards outline organized activities, meals, and other events taking place over the course of the days surrounding the wedding.

Information cards

A card detailing any other information that might be pertinent to your wedding can be enclosed with your wedding invitation. Information such as transportation, directions, lodging and suggestions can be provided on this card.

RSVP cards

If you are including RSVP cards, make sure to keep the wording consistent with your wedding invitation. A good rule of thumb for the RSVP date is allowing guests half the time between receiving the invitations and the date of the wedding. So, if you send your invitations eight weeks in advance, set the reply date four weeks from the wedding.
