You might need a location to share additional information with loved ones once you’ve perfected the text for your wedding invitations. This page provides a list of essential wedding information cards for every bride, in case you’re a little confused about which ones you might want.

You can combine certain wedding information cards to reduce shipping and other stationery expenses. Transportation information and hotel room block information, for example, can definitely be included on the same enclosure card. If your event is really formal, you might wish to adhere to protocol and include information on topic-specific enclosure cards. Regardless, you should make sure that all of your writing is succinct and direct. Too many text on an information card will probably make it look crowded and hard for guests to read.
Itinerary for the Weekend
If you are doing a few wedding-related activities, like a brunch after the ceremony, you might want to include an events card.
Things to Add:
Add only those events to which every visitor is invited. Provide the event’s title, dates, timings, and venues (e.g., post-wedding brunch). If specific clothing is needed for any of these events, you can also mention dress codes.
Things Not to Add:
Events like your wedding rehearsal, to which only certain individuals are invited, should not be listed. Place these cards inside of invited guests’ envelopes and provide information about special events on a separate insert. Another option is to send a different invitation.
Methods for Saving:
You can include all the information on your wedding website if everyone is invited to these festivities.
Card for the Website
I strongly advise incorporating a website card if you have a wedding website put up. Particularly in the event of a destination wedding, it is crucial for brides who have a lot of information to convey to guests. Your website can serve as a convenient location for tech-savvy visitors to respond online or a terrific way to offer hotel links for room blocks.
What to Include: Provide the website’s URL and a brief introduction urging visitors to visit for further information. If your wedding website includes a password, you might also need to add it.
Things Not to Add:
Anything else except the basics on your wedding website? Typically, website cards are about 2″ x 3.5″ business card size. Continue the idea that it’s preferable to remain brief.
Methods for Saving:
By using a wedding website card instead of individual inserts for lodging, weekend plans, etc., you may save money on invitation postage. It’s also simple to include your wedding website at the bottom of a weekend itinerary card, reception insert, or lodging insert.
You Probably Don’t Need These Details Cards
Cards for Attire
You might want to add an outfit card if your wedding location has a more stringent dress code than just cocktail or black-tie wear. This is particularly crucial when married couples live on military installations where entry requires adherence to a rigid dress code.
Things to Add:
Short recommendations for dressing include beach-casual or shoes suitable for the grass.
Things Not to Add:
too many clothing ideas or a lengthy list of things they shouldn’t wear. Include just the information that is absolutely important, and keep it brief.
Methods for Saving:
By putting all the information on your wedding website, you may exclude this card. Additionally, you may write cocktail or black-tie clothing in the invitation’s lower right corner.
Inserts into the Registry
Wedding registration information should not be included on any of your wedding stationery, according to traditional wedding etiquette. Although I generally think that this insert may be especially helpful for long-distance relatives and friends, many brides may feel compelled to share this information with loved ones.
Things to Add:
List just the two or three stores where you are registered.
Things Not to Add:
Any additional information not included in your register, including requesting cash gifts or specific products that are not on your registry.
Ways to Save: Put wedding register information on your website instead of this card.
