Printing the Return Address

Do I need to print the return address on the back of the envelope?

Printing the return address is an important piece of your wedding invitations. A properly addressed envelope has both the recipient’s address in the center of the envelope and a return address. The return address can appear in the upper left corner, or on the back of the envelope.

The purpose of the return address is two-fold:

First – if the envelope is undeliverable, the postmaster will return the envelope to you. This way, you can correct the problem, and re-mail the invitation to your guest.

Second – your guests will use the return address if they need to mail a gift.

These two purposes make it vital that you have the return address on your envelopes.

There are many ways to get the return address on your envelope.

1. You can have your invitation printer print the return address. When it is professionally printed, the work is done, requiring no additional time on your part. Additionally, you will not have any smudging or smearing of the address.
2. You can use an embossing tool or stamping tool and do the work on your own.
3. You can print labels and attach them to the envelope yourself.
4. You can hand-write the addresses.

Custom Invitations by Paper Hearts

Your wedding invitation should be a reflection of your style and the event you are planning. At Paper Hearts, we offer custom design services so you can have the invitation of your dreams.

This is an invitation we just recently printed for Jenni and Mitch. The bride’s wedding colors were Tiffany Blue, ivory and different shades of pink. She was so much fun to work with and we were delighted with the turnout.

Jenni fell in love with our line of shimmer papers, and settled on the ivory color as the base for her invitations. It really makes the color pop! We ran this invitation on a four color press, so she could have the right shade of blue.

Everything is all tied together with the Tiffany Blue band and a monogrammed medallion.

On the Monogram we added a Tiffany Blue Crystal for the finishing touch.
