_after the first of August_ _Toronto_

For the card of invitation to the wedding reception the wording is as
follows:

_Reception_
_immediately after the ceremony_
_Eight Salem Street_

or

_Reception_
_immediately after the ceremony_
_in the church parlors_

In the case of a church wedding, it is always well to enclose with the
invitation a small card reading: "Please present this card at the
church on August the third."

In case the wedding takes place in the country and invitations are
sent to many friends in the city, a card giving directions as to what
train to take, and where, which is to be presented to the conductor
instead of a ticket, and which entitles the possessor to special
accommodations, is enclosed with the invitation.

Wedding invitations, or announcements, and their accompanying cards,
are enclosed in two envelopes, one within the other, of the same

affairs, and hence the style of addressing invitations to her.

The words "And Family" are no longer used after the parents' names,
but separate invitations are sent to the members.

It is quite the courteous thing to include among the people invited to
a wedding, especially if it is to be in a church, the special business
friends and associates of the bridegroom-elect, his father, and the
bride's father.

In case the invitations are for the ceremony only at a church wedding,
the address of the bride's parents should be embossed upon the outside
envelope.

Acquaintances purely professional do not receive cards to a wedding.
One's physician, however, if his family is prominent socially, may be
included among the guests.

Announcement cards should be quite ready to post immediately after the
ceremony. They should be sent to all the circle of friends and
acquaintances of both the b
