Double sided invitations

Future Mrs. , on March 2, 2018 at 2:12 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 5

My invitations will be double sided, ceremony info on front and reception and the rainy day plan on the back. Should I make a small note at the bottom of the front side saying "please see reverse" or should I not put anything like that? The back side will be a solid color with white writing so I think it will stand out but I want to be sure. I also thought about when putting the invite in the envelope putting the back side to the opening of the envelope and maybe they would open and see the back first. I am trying to keep things as simple as possible.

Thank you for your thoughts.

    I'm sure people will figure it out. I always flip invitations over to check.

    Mine were two-sided and everyone figured it out. If you're very concerned, but the back side facing out of the envelope. They'll see it.

    I was thinking about making ours double-sided as well. I always check the back of invitations now since it is becoming more common.

    For my STD and Bridal shower invitations they were done backwards for this very reason. Our welcome reception cards will be as well (separate mailing). If your invitation is super formal I would t do it but for a more casual wedding, definitely.
