{Etiquette Thursday} How much does it cost to send an invitation?



This week's question is one that isn't easily answered.  How much does it cost to send an invitation?

That depends completely on what's included in the invitation.

Small invitations with no additional enclosures generally fall into the 1-stamp category.  Unless the invitation is square.  Square invites always require additional postage. 

If your invitation has additional enclosures (Pocketfold, Layers, RSVP, Directions, etc.), more than likely you will be requred to pay extra postage.  How much?  That's a question only a mail-person can answer for sure. Your best bet is to take a completed invitation to the post office and ask them to weigh it for postage.  They will be able to tell you exactly the cost to mail each invitation.

It's very important to make sure you use the correct postage.  After all that you've spent on invitations and more importantly the wedding, you want to make sure the invitations actually arrive to your guests promptly and without error. =)

Happy Mailing!
