You are also capable of adding a custom sleeve on the right hand panel to facilitate other wedding invitations stationery that needs to be accompanied with the invite. The sleeve can be added to your choosing, provided you cut the angles and the shape correctly according to measurement, whether it is a vertical or horizontal sleeve pocket, or even several layers of sleeve pockets categorised for each additional invitations stationery.
