Stuffing envelopes this weekend...do I have everything?

Outer envelope
Inner envelope
Invitation
Reply card and envelope
Direction cards

we will number the response cards on the back

We are having the ceremony and reception in the same place.

Is that everything to think of?

Oh, and stamps of course!

Sounds good, just if you have any OOT hotel block cards.

I sent those out with the STDs. Should I send out the info again with the invites?

Buy a small sponge (or a large one you can cut up) so you don't have to lick all the envelopes.

Hmm, tissue paper?

Sounds like you're all set! I'd send the hotel info out again, they might not have held onto the ones you previously sent out. Have fun this weekend!

Do I need tissue paper for letterpress invitations? It didn't come with my invitations. I got them from an invitation place, and they supplied me with everything else.

Consider using a glue stick instead of a sponge to seal the envelopes. My envelopes weren't sealing very well, and the sponge water made them wrinkle a little. I wound up going to CVS half way through and the glue stick was faster and looked much better!

Other than that, sounds like you are ready. I wouldn't worry about tissue paper. Good luck

I'd stick with the glue stick too!
