Some of the items listed below can be as simple as a text or e-mail if you have a small group such as rehearsal dinner or your bachelor/bachelorette party. Here's a checklist you can use when discussing details with your stationery vendor:
Before the Wedding
- Engagement party invitation
- Save-the-date cards
- Bridal shower invitations
- Bridal shower thank-you cards
