Your wedding invitations give your guests their first glimpse of what they can expect from your big day, setting the tone for your wedding celebrations.

Our team is here to help you find not only the perfect invites for you but also the perfect wording! Take a look at our wedding invitation wording pages for more inspiration. We even have advice on how to turn your day invites into evening invites with our evening wedding invitation wording!

Lost in the lingo: rustic vs. vintage wedding invitations? 

We’ll admit it, wedding invitations are all about the semantics! Your wedding stationery can go from rustic to traditional or from vintage to modern with one tweak to its font or format. If when you think rustic you think forest chic but when your mother-in-law thinks rustic she thinks cowboy kitsch, we’ve got you covered! Be sure to check out our pages dedicated to each individual style including our collections of rustic or vintage wedding invitations. Let us handle sorting through the wedding stationery styles and we’ll let you sort out your in-laws to be!

When should I send my wedding invitations?

It is never too early to send your wedding invitations, but we would recommend sending them out up to four months before your big day. This will make sure that your guests have all the information that they need well in advance. You may wish to send your invites out earlier if you are hosting a destination wedding so that your guests have the time to organise their transport and accommodation. When sending out your wedding invitations you can use our guest information cards to share the finer details; with everything from directions, to the number of your gift list. You can also include handy RSVP cards with your invites to make it as easy as possible for your guests to let you know whether or not they are able to join you for your big day. Take a look at our wedding stationery timeline for more hints and tips. We are here to help you from your save the date cards right up to your wedding photo albums so do not hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions!

How many wedding invites should I order?

You will need to order one wedding invitation per household. Remember that you do not need to send an invitation to every single guest, but one to everyone who lives at the same address. On average, you will be looking to order around half the number of wedding invites vs guests, as the majority of guests will be part of a couple or a family. It is, therefore, useful to leave a space on your wedding invites to be able to add the specific names of your guests so that everyone knows who is invited from their family (i.e. if the children are also invited).
