Step 2: Customize the menu template. Type in your name, your significant other's name, your wedding date and your menu options. Change the font color to match your color theme. Be sure to proofread your menus for spelling and grammatical errors. Tip: Make sure you make the changes to both sides of the template.

Step 3: Print your menus on cardstock or a heavy weight paper. If you have access to a good quality printer you can print the menus yourself or, you can have your menus printed at your local copy center. Tip: Remember there are two menus per page, you only need to print half as many copies as there will be guests. For example if you’re having 100 guests you’ll only need to print 50 copies.

Step 4
: Cut your copies in half vertically so you end up with two menus per sheet. You can buy an inexpensive paper cutter at your local craft store. If you had your menus professionally printed ask if they also provide paper cutting services.

Step 5 (Optional): Embellish your menus. If you want to add a little something extra to your menus you can embellish them with ribbon, rhinestones, glitter, stickers, etc.

The price of the invitation depends on many factors such as, the type of invite, the stationer, the ink, the typeface, the printing process and the quantity. To keep costs low use simple designs and opt for a single color.

In addition to the cost of the actual invitation, you need to factor in the cost to mail the invitations, as well as the postage for the response cards. The heavier the invitation the higher the cost. Use lightweight papers and fewer insert cards to save on postage for the invitations. Also, consider using postcards for the response cards to save on postage for the RSVPs.

A:  The line after the ‘M’ is meant for your guests to fill in Mr, Mrs, Ms, etc. followed by their name. For example, a completed response card would look like this:
 
Mr. and Mrs. John Smith

Some guests may neglect to write in their names on the response card, or they may write illegibly. To avoid having to make phone calls to determine who the mystery guest is, number your guest list. Then, discreetly print the corresponding number on the back of each response card.
