Direct answer

Proof the names, calendar date, start time, venue, address, RSVP contact, deadline and every optional instruction. Then test QR Codes and ask a second person to review the final Zazzle preview.

Check facts independently

Do not proof from memory. Compare the date with a calendar, verify the venue’s official address and send a test response to the listed contact method. Confirm spelling directly with the honoree when needed.

  • Names and honorifics
  • Day of week and numeric date
  • Time and time zone when relevant
  • Venue and address
  • RSVP name, method and deadline

Review the visual hierarchy

View the design at a realistic size. The honoree, date and location should not become hard to read because optional copy has been added. If the design feels crowded, shorten the note or choose a format with more information space.
