When to send your wedding invites?

When you buy your wedding invitations, remember that this is the first impression your guests will have about the style of your wedding. When choosing wedding stationery you need to make sure that your invitations reflect the vision you have of your special day.

Traditional wording can be used on your wedding invitations, or can you can opt for a style of your own, but whatever you decide, here at Mandalay we offer services and products to meet your needs, and to make your dreams a reality.

Make a list of all your friends and family who you will be sending your wedding invites too and remember to count a family or a couple as one invitation or you will end up with too many. When ordering your wedding stationery, remember that they can take time to print so allow yourself plenty of time - with Mandalay you will have your wedding stationery within 10 days of approving your proof!

When ordering your wedding invitations, always order extra to allow for any important guests that you may have accidentally forgotten. Before you order, ask someone to proof-read your invite wording, as they may spot an error that you may miss.

When you purchase your wedding stationery, you might want to buy your thank you cards at the same time. It is a good idea to this, as if the thank you cards are left until after the wedding, most brides do not usually get around to sending them ( very inappropriate!).

When have all your wedding invites and they are all ready to post or give out, it is a good idea to send them out at least 6 to 8 weeks in advance, depending on where your guests live, as this gives people enough time to plan and respond in good time.
