Types of Invitations

Temple Ceremony Invitation
Since the sealing rooms in the temple do not generally hold more than 50 people, you will have a limited number of people you can invite to the actual temple ceremony. Often, the easiest and most inexpensive way to let family and friends know that they are invited to the ceremony is to have an enclosure card in your invitation. See example.

Wedding Breakfast/Luncheon/Dinner Invitation
Often couples will have a nice meal to celebrate with their family and closest friends. If this is separate from the reception, you will probably want to use another enclosure card in your invitation. If the breakfast is following the temple ceremony and everyone attending the ceremony is invited to the breakfast, you can combine the two cards for both purposes. See examples.

Reception Invitation
Invitations should go out to anyone you want to attend the reception. R.S.V.P. can be printed in the lower left-hand corner if a response set is not enclosed in the invitation. If you are having more than one reception, you can format the information in two columns at the bottom of the invitation. See examples.

Enclosure Card
Enclosure cards are smaller than the invitation but made of the same paper stock. These cards can communicate many things: an invitation to the temple ceremony or wedding breakfast and even give directions to the reception. See example.

Response Set
The response set, used for R.S.V.P.'s, consists of a response card and a stamped envelope, printed with a name and address for the return of the response. See examples.
