Request a song at the reception cards

Request a song card

Now here is a fab idea that I wish I could claim to have come up with myself but I stumbled across it on the You and You and Your Wedding Forum. It is common to send a Reply Card with your invitations but I do not imagine many people have thought of sending a “request a song at the reception card”. There are a number of wedding stationery ensembles such as the Simplicity range from Collisons that includes a reply card and a guest information card in a pocket fold design. This guest information card would be perfectly suited for such a card.

If your chosen wedding stationery range does not include a guest information card (or if the Guest Information card is too big for the reply card envelope) then take a look at some of the cheap low run business card printers out there. Many printers offer a cheap business card print on first orders because they hope to get repeat orders. Vistaprint, for example are running a promotion whereby you get 250 Free personalised business cards. All you pay for is the postage which is under £4.00. You can design your request a song cards online and the neat little business card size cards would fit neatly inside any reply card.

The first dance of course will be especially chosen by you and your partner but your guests will appreciate being part of the remaining play list and for those who are already married it may rekindle some of their own wedding memories if they choose a song that is special to them. You will always get a few jokers who will request a funny song or heavy metal track but of course its entirely up to you which ones you choose to pass on to the band or DJ. Its your day after all !
