Address Wedding "Save the Dates"
Save the date cards are simple notes that precede the wedding by about six months and list only the date and general location of the wedding. They are not wedding invitations, but rather are intended to be an early warning to your intended guests to not make any future plans. Save the date cards are always followed by actual invitations that should be sent three or four months later. As such, the way to address a save the date card is exactly as you would the outer envelope of the wedding invitation itself, with formal names and titles.
Word an RSVP for Weddings
Most wedding invitations include an RSVP, or response card, that invited guests mail back to the couple to say if they will attend the wedding. How you word your RSVP cards depends on the style of wedding you plan on having, how the invitations were worded, and your own taste. A formal wedding requires a formal RSVP card while more casual affairs can use more relaxed language the cards. Some RSVP cards also ask the guests to specify the entrée they'd like.
Give the Groom His Wedding Band
Wedding bands are the symbol of a marriage. The exchanging of rings is one of the highlights of a wedding ceremony and something every guest, bride and groom looks forward to. If you are sticking to tradition, there is a set way the bride should give her groom his wedding band.The steps are easy to follow but they are very important so you can continue the tradition and make sure your photographer is able to capture some amazing pictures.
Fill Out RSVP Cards for a Wedding
Wedding response cards let the bride and groom know not only how many guests will attend their wedding, but also the exact names of the guests attending, and their requested meal choices, if that is an option. It is important to send an R.S.V.P card back to the bride and groom as soon as possible, and always before the requested due date, because the couple must submit headcounts to their vendors to ensure the right amount of food and drink, favors and chairs are ordered.
