Reception cards are ordered with your invitations to make them easy to remember and they are also sent out with the wedding invitations to tell the guests where the reception will take place. They consist of a small card that asks the guests to join the newly married couple and their families at a party to celebrate the marriage. On the card, it gives a date, place and a time for the guests to meet so they can attend the reception.

This card allows you to be flexible with the fonts and colors because it is less formal than the invitation. You can also put a design like a motif or a monogram on this card, particularly if you have classic or traditional invitations, to give your invitation package a little more of a personal touch or feel. If you are not sure what is best, you can never go wrong by maintaining a unifying theme such as a color to tie all aspects of the invitation together.
