Informing Guests About Postponement or Cancellation

For those who have decided to postpone or cancel their wedding due to COVID-19.

If you have sent invitations to guests, it is courteous to send a "Notice of Wedding Postponement." While sending it by letter is the most polite method, many couples also choose to send a postcard in this era of frequent wedding postponements.

(Although it is informal, it is more polite than handling it via LINE or phone, and costs are kept lower than sending by letter...!)

In this article, we will introduce how to create a "Wedding Postponement/Cancellation Notice Postcard" using a smartphone app.

Please use this as a reference to create your own.

The app to use

There are countless apps for creating postcards, but the one we are introducing this time is "Minna no Fudeo." This is the service of Fudeo, which is famous for its New Year's card printing software＊

☑ No basic fee (Design, address creation, double-sided printing, and mailing for only 160 yen per piece)

☑ Can order from one piece

☑ Can also be used for printing at home

☑ Can be edited from a computer

It’s a very user-friendly service♩

＜Preparation＞

① Prepare to easily copy the addresses of your guests.

(You probably compiled them in Excel when sending invitations, so you can either send them directly to your smartphone or edit them from your computer, either option is fine.)

② Prepare the text you want to use.

➡ You can check the text for postponement in this article

③ Sign up as a new user in the app.

＜How to Create＞

① Open the app and log in.

② Let's start by creating the back side (design side), so click on "New Creation."

③ Click on Blank > Blank Design (Vertical).

④ Click on Edit.

⑤ Text > Paste the text.

Please adjust while checking the balance of the letters. Use kanji for numbers in vertical writing and Arabic numerals for horizontal writing＊

⑥ Once done, press the complete button at the bottom right and give it a name for easy identification＊

⑦ Next, create the front side (address side) by clicking "New Creation" in the address book.

⑧ Name the address book for clarity.

⑨ Add the guests' addresses. Since the addresses will be in vertical writing, enter the numbers in kanji.

If the addresses are on your computer and you prefer that method, you can log in and edit from there as well＊

⑩ Once the address book is complete, return to the TOP and click on Print.

⑪ Choose your preferred printing method from Online print, Convenience store print (design side only), or Home printing. Online printing offers double-sided printing and mailing for 160 yen per piece, making it highly recommended＊

(The following steps are for those who choose online printing.)

⑫ Select the design to print and the recipient.

⑬ Use standard postcards for the material.

⑭ Choose the addresses to print.

⑮ Review the design and recipients.

⑯ Confirm the order details and input payment information to complete your order♡
