Wedding reception cards
Wedding reception cards are typically used when receptions are held in a separate location then the ceremony site. When the ceremony and reception are held at the same venue, the reception location can be stated at the bottom of your invitation. This does not require an additional address to be placed since it was already stated in the ceremony location. However, when your reception site is at a different address you can slip this card in with your invitations with address and direction cards.
Some people like to state on their reception cards what guests should expect. You may want to word something like “Cocktails, dinner and dancing to follow at (address)”. If you do not wish for children to be present you may want to state “Adult reception following at (address)”. It is not necessary to state what will be on the reception menu as that is where menu cards come in handy.
Direction cards can be custom printed or you may wish to print them out yourselves. They can be placed inside both your invitations and reception cards.
