Special Info with wedding invite

Missterious

Hey all

I'm putting together my wedding invites and including an info sheet with bits and bobs on, so far i have:
Allergies and dietary requirements - do we need to know of any

Venue - their address, number and about car park

Please arrive at least 15 minutes before the ceremony so you can be seated.
Please have sent your RSVP by 1st March 2013.
Our address and contact numbers

Anything else I'm missingor should add on?

Info about nearby hotels? Taxi phone numbers? If it's a cash bar, if they are able to pay with a card? If not, where the nearest cash point is? (A lot of our friends don't carry a lot of cash around with them these days, assuming that they can pay by card at bars and things, but our venue doesn't have a card machine)

All we had on our additional information sheet was
RSVP date,
Directions (from 4 different starting points) and between church and reception venue
List of nearby accommodation - hotels, self caterings and B&B's

Best tip I can pass on from my experience - give no extra info!!

We didn't and, as in the days before wedding websites etc and like all invites we've ever had, people have just gone and found things out themselves as needed.

My friend gave tons of details on hers and has been inundated by annoying questions ever since...!!

* Directions to the church/ venue.
* Accomadation.
* Gift list.
* Children (apologies for why they are not invited)
* Confetti - Not allowed/biodegradable only.
* RSVP
* Alergies.

Alternatively there are sites were you can set up a free website for your wedding. That way you can put all this info on the site and there is no way people will lose it and saves on paper for you. Also you can update it anytime you want.

We were getting married in the garden of the hotel (didn't in the end due to weather) but advised ladies that it would be on grass (in case they wore heals) and that it would be outside so to be prepared for chilly weather.

That's fantastic forward thinking. And very thoughtful for your guests. That would have been lovely outside - blooming weather!
