The elaborate invitations with pockets, ribbons and two inner envelopes are beautiful, but heavy, and postage can add up quickly. Alternatively, you could include a separate reception card, which is classy and won't weigh you down. take your invites to the local post office to get them weighed before mailing so you're sure about the cost of postage.
