The traditional method of asking friends and family members to attend your wedding is by personally giving them your Wedding Invitations. The history of using Wedding Invitations can be dated back during the Industrial Revolution in the 1700s when better printing methods where invented that uses inks instead of hand etchings. But before this time, Wedding Invitations are usually made by a “town crier” who shouts out loud about the wedding and anyone who hears it is automatically invited to the celebration. (A town crier, in the ancient time, is person whose line of work is going in the middle of the street to shout the latest information and events for that given day.)

In the contemporary setting, Wedding Invitations are now efficiently made via different technological methods of printing such as letterpress, offset, embossed or laser. The design, the color of print, the type of paper to be used and the content of Wedding Invitations are always decided upon by the soon-to-be husband and wife. Oftentimes, the top choice for Wedding Invitations is made of fancy paper like linen, printed with embossed lettering, and whose color matches the motif of the wedding. There are also many instances when scented papers are chosen over unscented ones.

In VIP weddings like celebrity or business tycoon weddings, oftentimes the Wedding Invitations that are sent contain a reply note to make sure whether the invited guest will surely attend the wedding or not. This will help the wedding planner in making arrangements that crucially involve the number of persons that are going to attend such as determining the number of plate settings and wedding tokens, and identifying the volume of food to be served.
