The primary function of the invitation is to inform guests of the date, time, place and hosts of the wedding ceremony, and it may also mention the location and time of the reception. The wording, lettering style and ink colour you choose are also important when establishing and carrying through your wedding theme.

Enclosure cards, as their name implies, are enclosed with the invitation to provide more information for your guests. Each Dawn invitation has enclosure cards of the same paper, colours and design elements for a perfect match. We recommend printing your enclosure cards in the same ink colour and lettering style as your invitations for a beautiful ensemble.
- These versatile cards may be ordered two ways to suit your pre- and post-wedding correspondence. Informals printed with your names or married couple monogram on the front are most often used as thank you notes for wedding gifts. They are also ideal for writing personal notes long after the wedding - so be sure to order plenty! Many brides order a supply of informals personalized with their maiden name or monogram to use as shower thank you notes and for other correspondence before the wedding. Matching envelopes are included with all informals.
- These cards are enclosed in your invitations to inform guests of your new address and when you will be moving there. At home cards have the same item numbers and prices as reception cards in the price grids. Envelopes are not necessary.
- Reception cards, tucked in with your invitations, ask your guests to participate in the celebration following your wedding ceremony. Reception cards are also perfect as invitations to such other wedding-related events as a brunch on the morning of the wedding, a gift-opening party, a family photo session, etc. Envelopes are not necessary.
- For accurate reception planning, response cards are essential. The cards are printed with the date to respond by, a line for guests to fill in their names and a line for guests to indicate how many of those invited will be attending the wedding reception. Response cards include envelopes printed with your return address FREE. Both are enclosed in your invitations. Guests return cards in the envelopes, letting you know whether or not they will attend.

Help guests easily find the way to your wedding and reception with a printed map card enclosed with each invitation. The map cards are available in white and ecru to match the paper colour of your invitations and keep your ensemble beautifully coordinated. For best results, draw your map on unlined white paper with a black, fine-line marker. For complete map card ordering information, please see a catalogue.
