The amount of stationery surrounding a wedding can be extensive, but not every item is crucial. Some invitation designers won't provide the entirety of companion pieces that you see here, and that's fine. Choose your invite first, and rest assured you will be able to coordinate almost anything.
1. Save-the-date (with envelope, not shown) : Essential for holiday-weekend or destination weddings.
2. Save-the-date note : A letter from the bride and groom that accompanies the save-the-date. It's a sweet gesture, but definitely not necessary.
3. Accommodations card : Can be mailed with the save-the-date. Essential for holiday weekend or destination weddings.
4. Invitation (with envelope, not shown) : You can purchase inner envelopes, but we prefer a single outer one.
5. Directions to the ceremony and reception locations
6. Reception card : If you're inviting everyone to the ceremony but asking only select people to the reception, those invited to the reception receive this card.
7. Welcome Dinner invitation : If you're inviting everyone to the ceremony but asking only select people to the reception, those invited to the reception receive this card.
8. Response card (with envelope, shown) : You can also opt for postcard-style response cards instead of traditional card-and-envelope sets. But keep in mind they may get a little mussed in the mail.
9. Welcome basket tag : Finish off your welcome baskets with personalized embellishments.
10. Ceremony program
11. Menu card
12. Escort card : If you have assigned seating, these cards tell guests at which table they are seated.
13. Table card : If you have assigned seating, one card identifies each table.
14. Place card : Denotes where guests sit at the table.
15. Favor tag : Opt for an adhesive sticker (shown) or a tie-on tag.
16. Thank-you note
