How Many to Wedding Invites Print

When planning your wedding invitations,

ensure you’re prepared for all scenarios.

Send one invitation per household, but remember that single roommates should each receive their own.

Keep 3-5 extra sets as keepsakes for yourself and your parents, and provide 1-2 sets to your photographer for capturing detailed invitation shots.

Additionally, have 10-20 extra sets on hand in case of

an expanded guest list or mailing issues.

These thoughtful steps will help ensure your invitations are perfectly managed and no details are overlooked!
