Wedding Invitation Postage Mistakes to Avoid

Wedding invitations often need more planning than ordinary letters. They may include RSVP cards, liners, inserts, thicker paper, wax seals, ribbon, square envelopes, or unusual sizes. These details can affect postage.

Common Mistakes

  • Assuming every invitation needs only one Forever Stamp.
  • Forgetting to weigh a fully assembled sample.
  • Using square or rigid envelopes without checking requirements.
  • Adding inserts after postage has already been calculated.
  • Forgetting postage for RSVP envelopes when needed.

Plan Before Mailing

Assemble one complete invitation exactly as guests will receive it, then check weight, size, thickness, shape, and destination. If you are unsure, confirm postage before mailing the full batch.
