| RSVP Card | 3.5x5" or 4x5.25" | Smaller than invitation; fits neatly in envelope with invitation. Allows guests to respond easily. |
| Thank-You Card | 4.25x5.5" or 5x7" | Matches invitation style; can be flat or folded. Perfect for sending after the wedding or with gifts. |
| Details / Info Card | 4x6" or 3.5x5" | Optional card for directions, accommodations, or event details. Keeps main invite uncluttered. |
