Okay.. what to include with my invitations.. am I missing anything or should there be anything else?

I have the actual invite which is tea length with a verse on one side and the invite on the other...

then there is the

reception card
response card
song request card
accomodations card
written directions to the church
written directions to the reception hall
direction map
pew card (only with certain invites)
nearby parking car

what else would you want in your invite??

Marcella,
I never heard of a song request card, I really like that idea, if it is what I think it is.

It looks like you have it covered. Is there any way to combine some of the cards/inserts? You'll probably pay a fortune in postage.

Thanks.. A song request card is a card I made up in which I have my guests list the name and artist of 3 songs they like and then include the card with their response card.. I will then make up a list of all the songs and give it to the band..

Christine, The cards aren't very big.. and I've used an eyelet to hold them together so they look like a fan almost (not the song request or response card though.. these two will be in the corresponding envelope).. it's pretty cool looking..

I should have done a song request card. I am trying to do our list for the band and I just can't think.

MarcellaBella-

Your song list would be great. I want to get it to our band in the next wek so they can learn the songs if they don't know them. I'll send you an email.

Thanks again

The eyelet pack sounds very pretty.

Marcella, youre already sending them out for the August wedding? I still have not ordered mine, and my day is in July? Am I late or are you doing yours early?
