Here are some attributes of seal and send wedding invitations:

  • All ensemble items can be included in one simple invitation piece.
  • Pre-marked folding lines make it easy to fold seal n send invitations into their own self-mailing pieces and then they are fastened by seals eliminating mailing envelopes. This saves time by not having to stuff and address both inner and outer envelopes.
  • The response card is attached at the bottom of the invite with a perforation for easy removal and return by guests. Being a postcard, no return envelope is required and the return postage is at the postcard rate which is less than regular first class.
  • Both the printed return address when mailing the invitations and the return response postcard mailing address are typically included in the price.

There are many beautiful designs of seal and send wedding invitations from classic to contemporary. There is now even a wider style that has a smaller sized reception card attached at the bottom by perforations along with the response postcard.

The seal and send style can also be your choice for other events for which you will need to collect RSVPs to have accurate seating and food arrangements. This design could be used for rehearsal dinners, post-wedding receptions, or anniversary celebrations as well as wedding invitations.

Being true to their name, seal n send invitations are all-in-one invites that are easy to fold, seal and send to your wedding guests.

From junk heap to wedding haute couture

One can never be sure where our actions today will lead, especially 40 years down the track. Way back in 1972, Malcolm Lock, innovator and surfing identity had a problem. With the rising popularity of wetsuits, his company had to dump  large volumes of neoprene rubber off-cuts and all this was costing him too much.

Have a cold drink with warmer hands

Being a surfie and local business identity, Malcolm Lock shared fairly regularly the odd beer or two with mates. And whilst enjoying that drink, he’d experienced how his hands became too cold, and his beer too hot, way too fast. Understanding the thermal properties of neoprene he did some thinking

In a flash, the stubby holder was brilliantly there.

No more neoprene to throw away, no more frosty cold hands and even best of all, longer lasting cold beer.

You won’t be astonished that, it’s Australia, where the stubby cooler was invented; they just dream for a cold beer. Very soon, the stubby cooler became a necessary, obligatory drinking accessory. It was very fashionable to have the best stubby holder – a cultural phenomenon was launched.

So, what of the stubby cooler today…?

The sheer simplicity of the stubby cooler and it’s practicality make it a an obligatory accessory for any serious party goer. As one might expect, this Australian cultural icon is much loved and has many names: amongst them, can coolers, stubby coolers, coozie, beer holders and many other local variations.

There’s always a few beers enjoyed at wedding receptions and so, the wedding stubby cooler has arrived as rigueur de jour. There’s a wide selection of wedding stubby cooler themes and if you need, you can have special ones made just for your wedding day. 

There’s no doubt that way back in 1972 Malcolm had no idea his stubby cooler would be on the table of the the wedding receptions of Australia.
