OK, I need help! We'll be looking at ordering our invitations and RSVP cards around October/November, after we've done the menu tasting (we're giving the guests options which need to be included on the RSVP cards).
But, I have no idea what goes in an invitation; this sounds silly, but how do they work? Like, do they have a pocket inside to put things like accommodation/travel/registry info in? Or is it literally just a bit of card folded in half and do you put the info in separately? Or are there different types?..
And how do you word them if the ceremony and reception are at different places? (albeit a 2 minute walk from each other lol)
I am SO confused; I know literally nothing about the more 'technical' side of things!

There are all sorts of invitations....folded, pocket fold, gate fold, cheque book, wallets....etc
We had a pocket one with a sheet giving the details and an RSVP card. We didn't need much info as all our guests live local, however if you have guests coming from far away you will probably want more information such as accommodation and travel. The good thing about pocket fold or wallet or cheque book types is you can customise them to include as much information as you want....whereas if you've just got a card folded in half, there will be less room for info.....unless you put in the seperate sheet, which I personally aren't a fan off...
Have a google and go on images and you'll find examples of all of the above.
We put the ceromony details on, and then underneath 'reception to follow at xyz'.
