- What date should I use on my RSVP cards?
We recommend about 3-4 weeks before the wedding. This gives you plenty of time to contact the guests that have not yet replied and have time to arrange the seating placements, give the final head count to your reception site, and any extra little things that may need to get completed.
- What postage will I need for my invitations?
Nearly all invitations will need the 2oz postage rate. Sometime, the bulkier invitations will require the 3oz postage rate. We can weigh your invitation once we start creating them to give you a heads up, however, we always recommend for you to take your invitations to your local post office and have them weighed. Response, thank you, and save the date cards need the 1oz rate. We can also do the RSVP cards as postcards that will save you money by requiring the postcard rate.
Hand canceling means that the postal worker will hand stamp your stamps instead of running your invitations through the machine. We strongly recommend that you have your local post office do that for you (it does not cost extra). The invitation will arrive at your guests house nice and crisp if you have them hand canceled.
