If handing out invitations
Alejandra in Etiquette and Advice, on January 9, 2014 at 1:43 PM

Should people still mail the RSVP card? I am thinking of hand-delivering some invitations to close relatives like my aunt and cousins. They live about 5 minutes from home and I see them frequently...

Accommodations/Website insert cards
Alejandra in Etiquette and Advice, on December 28, 2013 at 4:02 PM

What information goes on insert cards for invitations? Ceremony and reception are at the same venue so I don't need reception cards. However, I was thinking of getting business cards from Vista Print...
