Addressing, Assembling & Mailing Invitations

Carefully check over your entire order as soon as you receive it to make sure all the items you ordered are included and are printed correctly.

Address all inner and outer envelopes according to your guest lists.

Purchase stamps for outer envelopes and for respond card envelopes (if they will be included).

Place stamps on only as many response card envelopes as you will be sending since you probably ordered some extras.

Assemble invitations with any inserts that will be included such as response cards & envelopes, reception cards, map/direction cards, etc., placing everything inside the already addressed inner envelope.

Place stuffed inner envelopes inside of outer envelopes. IMPORTANT – make sure the guest name(s) on the inner and outer envelopes match for each invitation before sealing.

If you ordered seals, place them over the back flap of the outer envelopes so it looks like they’re holding the flaps down.

Place stamps and return address (if envelopes weren’t pre-printed) on outer envelopes that have been sealed. You’ll want undeliverable invitations returned to you by the Post Office.

Take addressed invitations to the Post Office to be mailed 4 to 6 weeks before the wedding.

After the wedding, write out and mail your thank you cards.
