Outer envelope: Holds all enclosures, formally addressed to the recipient.
Inner envelope: Holds all contents of the formal, third-person invitation for protection during shipping.
Reception card: Specifies where and when the reception will be held - usually included only if the ceremony and reception take place at different locations.
Response card: On which your guests indicate acceptance or regrets. In self-addressed stamped envelope. Make sure to include an RSVP deadline.
