Enclosures can be placed on top of or inside of the traditional engraved double sheet invitation, which folds like a book with the printing on top. With the multi-fold invitation in which the printing is on the inside, the enclosures are placed inside the first fold. All enclosures would be placed facing the back flap of the envelope on top of the invitation, so the guest can read each as she opens the invitation—most important on the bottom to least important on top. For example:
Invitation
Tissue, if used
Reception invitation
Response card
Usually the tissue paper is thrown away.
Response envelope is placed behind the response card, printing of the names facing up toward the back of the outer envelope.
If there are other enclosures such as maps, at-home cards, or name cards, these are placed in order of size inside the envelope.
If using an inner envelope, the printing would be facing the back of the outer envelope.
