Wedding is a big occasion, which needs advance and on-time preparation. Right from booking the venue to choosing the dishes, calling up the caterer, deciding upon the venue, selecting the perfect invitation card from an array of choices- everything needs to be done with perfection. But the most important part of the wedding is sending out the invitations. Because wedding is as social event so you certainly don’t want anyone to be left out.

Sending wedding invitation has become easier nowadays, thanks to the advanced technology, you now no more have to stand in queues at the post office or wait at the courier office to get your job done. Digital invitation is becoming the next big step to make this invitation sending process handy.

With the availability of Moments wedding app, you can create and customize the digital invitation and send to friends and family with the click of just one button. But yes we can’t deny that there are many relatives in our family who still believes in the tradition and would like to receive the wedding card at their addresses. So, when you do that, there are certain etiquettes which shouldn't be missed out.

Let us now check 5 such wedding invitation etiquettes to be followed:

1.    Seal the Envelope using glue:

Remember that Fevistick ad, so don’t ever try that. Please don’t lick your envelope to seal it, invest in good glue. If you're sending wedding invitations through an envelope to your long-distance relatives, then make sure to reinforce the closure method, I guess you also expect an invitation card to be in one piece and proper condition when it arrives.

2.    Sending Invitation on Right Time:

The standard rule to send the wedding invite to guest is 6-8 weeks in advance of the wedding. This helps your guest to make prior arrangements so that they can join you in this grand occasion. There are many invitees who will visit from abroad, if such is the case, send them the invitation much ahead so that they can arrange their flight tickets well on time. You want everyone to bless your ward before he steps into his new phase of life, so send the invitation accordingly, so that all can b e a part of this memorable moment.

3.    Sending Clean and Clutter Free Invite:

This applies if you're sending wedding invite through the post office. Never drop the invites on street-side mailbox, hand over them to a post-office person directly. This ensures less damage to the invitation card. Sending a torn wedding card will not be good decision.

4.    Addressing with Right Name:

One of the important etiquettes is to choose whom do you want to address in your card. The cards should bear the name of the eldest family member, because it is a gesture to show respect to him. And suppose if you are inviting a doctor, and he is a friend of yours, and then also mention “Dr” before writing his name, because he deserves this respect.

5.    Information to be Included:

This is the most important thing to consider before sending out the invitation. The legible things to include should be mentioned under 4 Ws- Who, What, Where and When. If you're sending a photo along, then customize it well to make it look appealing.

6.    Calling Up Personally:

One of the important etiquette of wedding invitation is calling up the important people personally after sending the invite. This is one way of making sure that the invite has been sent and their presence is observed.

Conclusion:

So be it!
Other than this, Moments app is a wonderful wedding app that organizes the invites for your people on your behalf! It's a perfect app for the couples who want to be in touch with all their friends and extended family and keep sharing the happy moments with them.
