I do! – Tips & Tricks for the Perfect Wedding Invitation

You and Mr Right have found each other, he has asked the question of questions and the only thing that is missing to stay on cloud nine permanently are two small words: I do. Planning the wedding of your dreams will take a lot of time and energy since you want every detail to be perfect. Choosing the right wedding invitation is only the beginning. Your guests want to be addressed in a personal way and you want them to get as excited as you are about the wedding party. So here are some tips and tricks to make sure that this first part of your wedding planning is a success.

  1. First rule: Impress your guests with a fine, personal invitation and make them feel special. Every person should get a sense of how important it is that they are there with you to celebrate this wonderful occasion.
  2. Make your invitation as unique as possible by designing it yourself, adding photos or choosing one of the hand-picked designs from our special wedding collection. If you decide to send it out via post the paper should of course be of high quality.
  3. Addressing each guest personally is always the best way to get their undivided attention and make them feel welcome, especially if you are sending out your invitations online.
  4. So what is the best option for sending out your invitations – via post or online? Printing your invites on paper is very nice but takes a little more time than sending them out via email. No matter what you choose, we offer both options. If you can’t decide you can even choose to combine the online and offline world.
  5. Sending out online invitations demonstrates a sense for the environment through lowering paper production. Also it is much easier to manage guests’ responses in our online tool. On the day of the wedding your guests can easily access their invitation on their mobile phones and save information on location, accommodation and present registries.
  6. Don’t forget to provide all of the above in your invitation. Make sure your guests don’t get lost and give them as much information as possible on date, time and location.
  7. If you have certain preferences on dress code, colors or anything that might fit the party – let your guests know in advance to avoid unpleasant surprises.
  8. Send and donate! If you use our special EventKingdom charity stamps for your sendings each one will equal a donation to the SOS Kinderdörfer organisation.
  9. Don’t forget to send out thank you cards after the wedding and let your guests know how much you enjoyed their presence and gifts.
  10. Last but not least – your special day should be remembered.
  11. Upload your photos on EventKingdom.com and share them with your guests individually.
