Mr. and Mrs. Richard Littlehouse






Request the honour of

Presence at the marriage of their daughter

Betty

To

Mr. Frederic Robinson

On Saturday the fifth of November

at four o'clock

At the house of Mr. and Mrs. Sterlington

Tuxedo Park

New York

R.s.v.p.

 

No variation is permissible in the form of a wedding invitation. Whether fifty guests are to be invited or five thousand, the paper, the engraving and the wording, and the double envelope are precisely the same.

 

Church Card of Admittance

In cities or wherever the general public is not to be admitted, a card of about the size of a small visiting card is enclosed with the church invitation:

 

Please present this card,

at St. John's Church

On Tuesday the first of November

 

Cards to Reserved Pews

To the family and very intimate friends who are to be seated in especially designated pews:

 

Please present this to an usher

Pew No. ——

On Thursday the ninth of May

 

Engraved pew cards are ordered only for very big weddings where twenty or more pews are to be reserved. The more usual custom—at all small and many big weddings—is for the mother of the bride, and the mother of the bridegroom each to write on her personal visiting card:

 

Pew No. 7

 

Mrs. John Huntington Smith

 

Four West Thirty-sixth Street

 

A card for the reserved enclosure but no especial pew is often inscribed " Within the Ribbons."

 

Invitation To The House

The invitation to the breakfast or reception following the church ceremony is engraved on a card to match the paper of the church invitation and is the size of the latter after it is folded for the envelope:

Mr. and Mrs. John Huntington Smith

Request the pleasure of

Mr. & Mrs. James Greatlake's

Company on Tuesday the first of November

at half after four o'clock

At Four West Thirty-sixth Street

R.s.v.p.

 

Ceremony And Reception Invitation In One

Occasionally, especially for a country wedding, the invitation to the breakfast or the reception is added to the one to the ceremony:

 

Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Chatterton

Request the honour of

Mr & Mrs. Worldly's

Presence at the marriage of their daughter

Hester

To

Mr. James Town, junior

On Tuesday the first of June

at three o'clock

at St. John's Church

And afterwards at Sunnylawn

Ridgefield

R.s.v.p.

 

Or the invitation reads " at twelve o'clock, at St. John's Church, and afterwards at breakfast at Sunnylawn"; but " afterwards to the reception at Sunnylawn" is wrong.
