I'm not confident in addressing wedding invitations...!

Future brides, what are your plans for addressing wedding invitations? There are three methods for addressing invitations:

☑ Hiring a calligrapher

☑ Printing

☑ Writing by hand

Invitations are the first form of hospitality you give to your guests. While printed addresses are becoming more common, many people would prefer to give handwritten ones if possible.

However, hiring a calligrapher typically costs around 100 to 200 yen per piece. If you need to hire someone for dozens of invitations, it can add up quite a bit…

If you write them yourself, the cost is of course zero, but there may be brides who feel uneasy about handwriting because they lack confidence in their writing skills.

For those brides, I have a recommended "trick to write beautifully." With this method, anyone can easily write well just by tracing.

Let me introduce this method!

How to Write Addresses Neatly on Invitations – What You Need to Prepare –

There are only four things you need to prepare to write the addresses on wedding invitations neatly:*

① Brush Pen ⇒ Anything you have at home is fine♡ Avoid light colors as they are for funerals; use dark colors for celebrations◎

② Transparent Folder Case ⇒ It's recommended to use B5 or A4 size folder cases available at 100 yen shops◎

③ LED Light ⇒ You can also buy this at a 100 yen shop. Make sure to get one that fits inside the transparent folder case◎

④ Address and Name Template ⇒ Choose a font you like for the letters you'll be tracing. For beautiful lettering, styles like running script can be harder to imitate, so popular choices are block or textbook styles◎

With these four items, you're all set! Now, let me explain how to do it!*

How to Write Addresses Neatly on Invitations – Instructions –

Once you have your brush pen, transparent folder case, LED light, and template ready, turn on the LED light and place it inside the transparent folder case.

Next, place the template on top of it, and then put the envelope on top of that.

The light allows the template underneath to shine through, so all you have to do is trace over it. Since you're simply tracing a model, it's super easy to write beautiful addresses♡

Many brides who have tried this method have commented, "I can write beautifully with ease!" "With this, there's no need to hire a calligrapher!"

In the beginning, it seems many take about five minutes to write one. When considering 60 guests, that's 300 minutes = 5 hours!

To avoid rushing the day before sending them out, it’s best to prepare in advance.
