Invitation preparation

These are our invitations

They are kind of a trifold, where the sides fold in on each other.

Does anyone know where do the directions and the response card go?

thanks

Re: Invitation preparation

Thanks MarcellaBella

Just so I understand - in my case, with just directions and a response card.

When the guest opens the invitation (both sides),
- the directions will be the first thing they see,
- and then the response card (with the flap tucked in)
- and then the wording on the invitation

or is it the opposite?

Re: Invitation preparation

it would go like this

they open the invite and then they'd see the response card tucked into the envelope, the map, reception card and then the tissue paper which would be laying over the writing on the invite...

Re: Invitation preparation

I don't think my invitations come with tissue paper - anyone know where to get them?

Re: Invitation preparation

I've seen those invites before, and they are beautiful. I'm not exactly sure where the response card and other stuff would go, but my guess is inside the invitation before you fold it.
