Do you put the actual ceremony time on a wedding invite?

Yes! The time listed on the actual invitation is most often the time that the ceremony will start.

There is sometimes confusion over whether the time listed on a wedding invite is the ceremony time or the arrival time. If you are worried about your guests being late, you can use the details section of your Evite Wedding Invitation to add a note that says something like “Please plan to arrive at [insert your ideal time range here]” to indicate that guests should get there early so the flow of events stays on track.

Should you include the reception address on a wedding invitation?

If all of the guests who are at your wedding ceremony will be invited to the reception, then you should include the reception details on the invitation! This makes it easy for guests to find all of your event information in one place.

What information should I include in my online wedding ceremony invitation?

Start with the most important details. Your digital wedding ceremony invitation should feature the couple's full names front and center. You also want to include the date, time, and location of the ceremony.

Next, include information on when guests should RSVP, as well as a link to your registry so that all of the necessary information is gathered in one place.

Evite allows you to add additional information so you can include helpful notes about dress code, parking instructions, directions, or reception information.

When do I send save the dates for my wedding ceremony?

Save the Dates should be sent out about 4 to 6 months before the wedding. Keep in mind, if you are having a destination event, you will want to send them even earlier to give guests ample time to plan proper accommodations.

When do I send out wedding ceremony invitations?

We recommend sending out your formal wedding invitations about 6 to 8 weeks before your big day.

If the event is a destination wedding and you are not sending Save the Dates, then you should send your invitations even further in advance.

What other invitations do you need for a wedding?

It is helpful to have separate invitations for each of your wedding-related events! In addition to your wedding ceremony invite and your wedding reception invitations, you can use Evite to find something for every theme or style, whether you're hosting an engagement party, bridal shower, bachelorette party, or bachelor party.
