Talk:Wedding invitation

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The article fails to mention that wedding invitations/announcements (in the US at least) often include a small piece of tissue-like paper, the purpose of which is a great mystery to me, which is why I looked up this article in the first place.



The answer to the tissue question is as follows: "Engravers used to use tissue sheets to protect against blotting or smudging,but improved techniques have made the tissues unneccessary and you may discard them if you wish." Emily Post on Weddings, 1987 Invitationdiscounters 17:18, 20 August 2007

[edit] Civil Ceremony

The two paragraphs in the header about Civil Ceremony are a bit overkill for what needs to be said and are basically full quotes. If kept, they should be paraphrased with a citation instead of directly quoted. My opinion is that there is nothing in the two paragraphs that are actually helpful in terms of learning about wedding invitations. Most of the text is about general wedding planning and the issue of wording is never actually addressed. MrHen. (talk) 17:51, 12 January 2008 (UTC)


[edit] Interestign Article

There's a nice article about "Choosing the Perfect Wedding Invitation" at <url removed>, my cousin sent it to me, she found it uselfull with her wedding planning. 99.235.37.120 (talk) 16:12, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

Odd that your cousin should coincidentally be recommending a site that was designed by Dreiden, a company you promoted on the Corporate branding article a few days ago [1]. Maybe I'm just too cynical, but I don't find it very believable. Please see our conflict of interest and spam guidelines about the inappropriateness of using Wikipedia as part of a marketing campaign. In any case the article itself seems to fail our external links guidelines. -- SiobhanHansa 19:44, 9 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] save the date

shouldn't this section be removed and referenced to the save the date article? otherwise the save the date article should be removed and combined with wedding invitations. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yourmanstan (talk • contribs) 15:28, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
