The Invitation
Three ways of acquiring the perfect invite:

1. Bulk produced cards: A wide selection is available from various stores were prices of these cards are very economical but not always what you want.
2. Custom made cards: Cards made to your specifications however at a higher expense. Extra time should be allowed here when researching and ordering the perfect invite.
3. D.I.Y: Invitation sets already pre cut that includes a step by step guide in assembling the invite yourself. Glues and tapes are generally not included, and you will need some personal time to spend on them.

Depending on what format you wedding will be, you may want to include some of the following items:

• Reply Cards (R.S.V.P.)
• Place cards - either to facilitate seating arrangements or to be used as a “thank you” card for guests attending
• Bonbonnière tags - to be attached to a piece of wedding cake or a small gift.
  Order of Service cards/booklets
• Menus

How many? A rule of thumb is to allow one invitation for every two people invited. For example, once you have drafted a list and established how many single people are to be invited, it should give you a fair idea of the number of cards you will need. For 30 single people and 60 couples (including children) you will need 60 cards. Allow about 10 extra for those people you may have left off on your list! Remember, it is cheaper to print 20 cards more than you need than to have them reprinted afterwards. The same argument holds for the other items to be produced. Always take a few extra envelopes should you make a mistake when addressing them!

The Right Invite

Always check and re-check the following for your Wedding invitations whether a professional is designing them or you are:

• Spelling
• Correctness of names
• Wedding & R.S.V.P. dates
• Addresses and location of church and reception venue
• Supply information for the Reply Card and to whom it has to be addressed (R.S.V.P. date if not printed on invitation)
• Time of ceremony and reception
  The same applies to other items such as place cards, menus and so on.

How can I save money?

Choice of ink – black not raised is the cheapest. Gold and standard coloured inks (not raised) – save some money. Any thermographically printed ink (raised print) - will cost you more. Foiled printing - most expensive.
R.S.V.P. cards and reply envelopes – Print in black ink, as black reads easier. These items are basically just suppling information and are not kept by the recipient. Why spend extra money?
Choose a standard card (bulk produced). The more processes used to produce it, the costlier the card.
Look at discontinued designs
If you cannot afford the R.S.V.P. card and envelope, supply a fax, telephone number or e-mail address for guests to respond to on the invitation.
Choose a design that fits a standard envelope. The envelope gets placed into the rubbish bin 99% of the time.

Don't forget that there are still some tasks to be done after the wedding day has finished.

Many people will have spent time and money on selecting a gift for your special day, and some will have gone to great efforts to be there (travel, babysitters, time off work, etc) so it is polite to thank them for this. Send wedding thank yous within two weeks of the honeymoon, although presents received before the wedding can be acknowledged earlier, too. Traditionally, thank you notes are written on stationary matching the invitations. This isn't essential, but it is a nice touch. If someone gives you gifts at different occasions (eg a shower and the wedding) it is appropriate to send two thank you notes. A genuine thank you will not just say “thank you for the gift.” It's much nicer to get a thank you note that mentions what the gift was and its value to the couple (eg “Thank you for the vase. It fits above our fireplace perfectly.”) A personal, preferably hand written note or card shows true appreciation. Of course, thank you cards are also required for those who have done things for your wedding, such as making the cake, being the MC or helping with the preparations.

Wedding Dress

If planning to wear your wedding dress again, it can be treated like any other garment. However, if you're not reusing the dress, you need to decide what to do with it. Of course, you could sell or give away the dress, but many brides keep it. Some brides actually have the dress cut down and made into a christening gown for their children. Remaining material can also be used to cover photo albums for the wedding and any christenings to follow.

Given that you wish to keep it, what do you need to do? Any trace sweat or dirt is likely to turn the dress yellow over time, so regardless of how clean it appears, the wedding dress needs to be cleaned after the day.

Even if the dress can be washed, it is safer to use a professional, to avoid errors. Tell the cleaner of any stains you are aware of and remove any trimmings, hoops and accessories before cleaning. Check out prospective cleaners carefully to make sure they know how to care for such dresses, as not all dry cleaners know to remove shoulder pads, for instance.

If you have found a cleaner you are comfortable with, your Maid of Honour or Mother may be willing to take the dress there for cleaning soon after the wedding. It is best to have it cleaned within two weeks to ensure stains don't set.

Once the dress is cleaned, many professional cleaners will return it to you in a presentation box. The box will be acid reduced and dust proof and lined with unbleached cotton. Acid free tissue will be placed around and in the dress so it can breathe. Avoid cleaners using vacuum-sealed or shrink-wrapped storage.

Storage in plastic or untreated cardboard will result in a yellowed dress. Dampness and humidity can cause mildew, which can't be removed. The dress needs to be kept in a dry, cool place out of sunlight ~ ideal conditions are 14 deg C and relative humidity of 50 to 60%.

It can take up to three people to pack a dress into one of these boxes, but it is a nice, compact means of storing the dress; most have a window front for viewing the dress. Some recommend refolding the dress each year to avoid permanent creases and check for problems, but this opens the box's seal so should be discussed with your cleaner.

Alternatively, once the dress had been cleaned, stuff the bodice and sleeves with acid free tissue paper. Wrap the dress in a white sheet and hang in a dry, cool place and check it occasionally. For storage on a hanger, sew extra hanging straps to the waistline to prevent stretching the dress.

Some say it is best to use blue tissue paper for storing your dress; don't do it. Blue tissue paper is not acid free and, if it gets wet, it will leak dye onto the dress. If you have the space and desire, there are also means of protecting dresses kept on manikins or within a large frame. Such processes are ongoing and require expert advice.
