It is VERY important to proofread your invitations and here are a few tips to keep in mind! When getting your proofs via email you should always print to size. Read you invitation and all other enclosures aloud. If possible have some one listen and read along as you read it out. Check the spelling of all names. Check all dates and numbers carefully. Check that all locations, times, dates and address's were included. In RSVP make sure there is a space provided for the guest names, the return by date, the food option if needed and the number attending. Check the overall layout of the invitation. Make sure you got the right size, color, spacing etc. See if you can hand it out to someone who is not familiar with the details and have them proofread. Don't forget that your invitation designer or retailer does not know the datails of your event as intimately as you do and in most cases proofreading is NOT part of their service.
