In addition to the size of the invitation itself, you will want to think about the type of paper you are using and the number of elements, as this may require you to buy more postage. Four-panel, petites, and all-in-one invitations are the most affordable formats, minibooks™ are the most expensive format, and classic 5” x 7” invitations are somewhere in the middle. What is your budget? As you likely guessed, the larger and more complex the size and number of elements in your invitation suite, the more costly it is going to be. Likewise, while we offer these accessories with petite and square cards, they are not sized down, so the impact of unveiling the invitation may be a little less grand, but still beautiful! That being said, these formats are great for a more modern and laid-back feel and will help set the tone for your guests right away.ĥ. If you want to include any of these inserts, an all-in-one invitation is not going to suit your needs (although it does have a perforated RSVP postcard attached). If you are curious, the traditional order of these cards from top to bottom is direction card, RSVP card (tucked into the envelope with wording side up), reception card, and then a formal invitation. These accessories are typically sized at 4.25” x 5.5” to be nicely folded against the invitation and fastened with a belly band around the center. If you’re looking for something more formal or traditional, you’ll want to go with a 5” x 7” classic size so that you can include important accessories like a direction card (to include further details about your wedding location, website, or any other details that don’t fit on the invitation), RSVP card and envelope, and reception card if your reception site is different from the ceremony site. What do you want the look and feel to be like for your guests? Of course, beyond the practicalities, your wedding invitation size and shape should feed into your overall design aesthetic. While not a hard and fast rule, this is something to keep in mind if you’re thinking about a petite, square, or all-in-one invitation that has more limited real estateģ.
Who do you want to feature in the host line? As you may know, Minted features designs for many different combinations of hosts and greetings on its wedding invitations (whether both sets of parents, one set of parents, or just you and your partner), but the more names you want to feature on an invite, the smaller the font will need to be. We have a great article that reviews all the invitation etiquette questions you may have about details to include, the order to include them, and so much more.Ģ. Do you want to include details other than the hosts and attendee information? If you’re excited to share out some of your engagement photos and other details about you and your partner, you may want to opt for a four-panel or minibook™ invitation, which allows you to add supplementary info in addition to the traditional invitation requirements. There are a couple of key factors to think through when determining what size and shape you want for your wedding invitations:ġ. CHOOSING YOUR WEDDING INVITATION SIZE & SHAPE
