Thoughtful Consideration for Guests: Presenting Second Party Invitations at the Reception Will Make You Look Thoughtful!

What to Do About the After-Party Invitation?

The after-party held after the ceremony and reception of the wedding

Recently, creating after-party invitations on the web and sending details through email or LINE has become the mainstream.

For guests, unlike paper, there’s no worry about losing it, and there's no need to bring it on the day,

It’s convenient since you can check it with just a smartphone♩

It’s more considerate to hand out the after-party notice on the day!

However, on the day of the wedding, if your smartphone runs out of battery before the after-party,

or if it’s quite challenging to find and send an email or LINE (especially one received two months ago)...

While web invitations have many advantages, they also come with a few disadvantages.

Therefore, to ensure that guests can comfortably attend the after-party,

it’s much kinder to prepare a simple paper notice for the after-party and hand it out on the day＊

It’s okay to keep the content really simple♡

The after-party notice handed out on the wedding day can just have the necessary details written on a single sheet of paper＊

Make sure to include four essential items: the location, reception time, start time, and a QR code leading to a page with detailed information!

It’s a good idea to match the design with paper items like the seating chart or place cards♡

When's the best time to hand it out on the day?

① When Checking In

One method is to check in advance which guests will be attending the after-party,

and when those guests arrive, have the check-in staff hand them the after-party notice along with the seating chart.*

② Place it on the Guest Tables

Another method is to place it on the guest tables along with the place cards.

After-party notices handed out on the day are appreciated!

While it’s common to send the after-party notice along with the wedding invitations,

lately, it has become fashionable to send a web invitation 2-3 months in advance with details, and then hand out a simple notice 'on the day'♩

Handing it out on the day ensures it won't get lost, serves as a reminder, and from the guests’ perspective, it's a considerate and convenient touch.

Since guests will be divided into those attending the after-party and those not attending, some adjustments may be necessary,

but why not prepare the after-party notice before the day?＊
