If you are opting for a sit-down dinner at your reception, chances are the caterers will want to have an estimation of what entrees to prep for your big day. They’ll want this information well ahead of your wedding date so you will need to include some type of menu card with a fish, chicken, vegetarian or meat option in with the invitations. This may leave you stumped with how to present your wedding invitation with the menu option, luckily we’ve got you covered!

Creative Wedding Invitation with The Menu Option for Any Wedding

Couples are taking advantage of including menu cards in with their invitation to let their creativity shine. You can just have the information included on the RSVP cards or you can create some more fun and original separate card with the menu option. The two major components of the menu cards will include the response date and menu options.

The Response Date: You want your guest to respond in a timely manner usually within 4-3 weeks of the wedding date. The response date will depend on when the caterers need a final count, so you will want to confirm when you need to provide them with this information and making the response gives you plenty of time to get back to the caterers.

The Meal Selection: This is where you can get a little more creative! Make sure the meal selection are clear indications of what your guest is choosing but feel free to let your personal style show through. Whether you make the choices as a section on your RSVP cards or have them on a separate card, there are a variety of ways you can create a simple design.

Or you can include more details on it like the following one.
