When it comes to wedding invitations, you probably know there are other items that you may need to purchase to send with them such as reception cards or response cards. Whether directly related to your invites or to your wedding reception, there are specialty items that can often be purchased at the same time from the same printer. In some cases the items may even be available to match your specific invitation design.

Here is a listing of some of these items along with an explanation of their purpose:

• Map Cards – Including these cards with your wedding invitations will provide guests with driving directions to your ceremony and/or reception location if they are not familiar with the area.
• Accommodation Cards – The information printed on these cards will provide any guests requiring overnight accommodations with information for any hotels you may have contacted for possible room reservations.
• Envelope Seals – These decorative self-adhesive pieces can add the finishing touch to your mailing envelopes by giving the illusion that they are sealing the back envelope flap even though it has already been secured. Usually they have to be purchased separately but may be included with self-mailer and seal ‘n send wedding invitations.
• Name Tabs – Most commonly associated with pocket wedding invitations, these ornately printed labels show the couples’ names and are used to seal the pocket wrap.
• Envelope Icing – To add pizzazz on the outside of your invitations, this charming label wraps around one side of your envelope from front to back. The part of the label that appears on the front has room for handwriting your guest’s mailing address with the back side showing your initials or maybe even an entire return address.
• Place Cards – These personalized cards will let your wedding guests know at which table their seat is reserved.
• Table Cards – Guests are easily guided to their reserved table with placement of these identifying cards.
• Menu Cards – Positioned at each place setting, they add an elegant finishing touch to your wedding reception tables as well as giving your guests a preview of the evening menu.
• Napkins – Typically your wedding stationery printer will also have paper napkins available for personalizing with your names and wedding date to add a personal touch to your celebration. Often times a design or monogram can also be imprinted on them matching your theme and the ink or paper can be selected to coordinate with your wedding colors.

When it comes to mailing wedding invitations, purchasing personalized stamps has become a new trend with couples. Although custom wedding stamps are normally purchased separately, they are a great way to add a special touch to the outside of your unique wedding invitations. Be sure to know ahead of time via the Post Office how much postage each ready-to-mail invitation will require so you order your postage stamps in the correct amount.

Obviously not all of the above items are necessary, but it’s good to know exactly what is available to you depending on your wedding style and budget. Anytime you can save time and money, especially in wedding planning, make the most of it. The good news is that these additional printed items can usually be ordered from the printer of your wedding invitations so why not take advantage by saving on separate shipping costs later.
