Tip of the Day: "Let's face it — wedding invitations can quickly add up to a small fortune, especially when you factor in response cards, reception cards, envelopes, inner envelopes, liners, accommodation and information cards. I am all for sticking to a budget, but focusing on the nicest main invitation you can afford, and cutting costs on every other printed piece," says Kate Pickett from Pickett's Press.
The easiest way to spend less is to forgo as many separate printed pieces as possible. "For instance, we find that a separate reception card is no longer necessary as that information is easily accommodated on the invitation itself. (Traditionally, the invitation only mentions the wedding ceremony, and the reception information would be printed separately). The accommodation information can also be put on a website instead of sent on a printed piece of paper," Pickett adds.
