Invitation proof reading?

Do you have a wedding website? If you do, you might want to include it on your Details card and maybe not so much wording about the accommodations on it.

Love the look and glitter!

-if it is a church wedding you should have a u in honour I dont know why but that is the rule
-id change "to" to "and" between your names
-capitalize afternoon
- Black and white tie are the only attire you should put on invites. Put this on your website. I definitely get the formal feel from your invites!
-the font on please respond will be hard for people to read, maybe not all caps? Also the rsvp card has about 5 different fonts. 2 is plenty and will make it flow better
- I wouldn't mention it is a buffet, takes away from formalness
Although I'm confused if these are all separate inserts on back sides. They all say front. I'd actually make the entire details a page on your website and save yourself the card if it is separate.

Could the "formal attire" be centered? It looks off to me, since the rest is centered.

View Quoted Comment Black and white tie are actually suppose to be in small letters in lower right corner. But only attire ti be mentioned.

In American grammar, we do not put "and" in the year when we write it out.

On the details card, you include "For your convenience, a block of rooms have been.............."

Correct grammar is "For your convenience, a block of rooms has been..........." I'd also break that sentence in two somehow. It is a bit of a run on sentence.

There's no need to include the zip code for the locations.

I think if the "adults only" wasn't there, it would look more normal? I just think because it's the line right above and centered. I wasn't speaking for etiquette, just what I noticed!

I agree definitely change the "to" to "and" in between your names.

On an invitation all items should be spelled out completely with no abbreviations. You have abbreviated the state of Ohio to OH as this should be spelled out. You could list the name of the church, drop down line and list the address, drop down another line and list city ad state with zip code. Also, there is no need to list formal attire as your invites dictate formality and it is rude to tell others how to dress. The only exception to this is black tie. I still do not understand why the bride and grooms names are underlined. I feel that it distracts from the names. There is also no need to underline the name of the reception venue. On the RSVP card you can leave off buffet as you are not requiring anyone to make any plated choices so it is not needed. I would add a line for dietary restrictions though so those can be relayed to the caterer. Since the majority of information on the details card is specific to Accommodations I would change the wording to such. From details to accommodations. Then you could use the following format:

Hampton Inn and Suites, next line Sandusky/Milan, Ohio, next line physical address, next line city, state and zip.

After all this has been outlined you could state Rooms have been reserved for our guest at a discounted rate. Please reference the Brown/Salkeld wedding when making your reservation. All reservations must be made by September 20, 2018 to obtain the discounted rate.

Please call 419-499-8000 to reserve your room.

At the very bottom I would list that transportation is available for all guests from the hotel to the venue and back. I have a question? Is the shuttle only available one way or roundtrip. If it is roundtrip then I would state that roundtrip shuttle service is available for all hotel guests.

View Quoted Comment Oh I thought the underlining was proofreading/spell check! If not totally agree. needs to go as it is not formal.

It is awkward to me to have the first person (We, our) then switch to the names. It could all be third person "Together with their parents, Bride and Groom request the honour of your presence...."

Overall, I think there are too many different fonts.

View Quoted Comment Agree id stick with one main font like the rsvp card, love them otherwise

I didn't realize even the state was supposed to be spelled out. I knew about the date being spelled out (though we're ignoring that because I hate how it looks with everything spelled out) but I had no idea there were so many rules about an invitation!

View Quoted Comment I feel the same way!! I have edited so much from the first draft! Lol

Ours just say "please join us for the wedding of __ & __ on December 2nd 2018" and wrote out the venue address and called it a day.

The RSVP cards just say "we reserved __ seats in your honor" followed by just "__attending __declining" and then "names___" with an RSVP date at the bottom.

I dislike the fancy wording and spelling and just got right to the point lol
