Came home and found my sample invite!

Ladies,

THIS is what my invite is going to look like!

Now I just have to have the rsvp and reception cards made! The invite is black writing on creme paper and red cardstock behind it. I love the bow... who am I kidding... I love that this is MY invite!

What do you think? Honest opinions (good and bad) please.

Oh- my camera sux big time, so the creme looks white.

Hollie,

They are very classy, simple and elegant. Love the bow! The color also gives the invite a clean but yet festive look! Great choice! Congratulations!

Are your BMs' dresses a similar color red?

Re: Came home and found my sample invite!

Hollie, I absolutely love it...great job!

My only 'thing' is that I was very OCD about not using monograms until after you're married since you're technically not Mrs. H. But if you're OK with that, I say go for it!

Re: Came home and found my sample invite!

I really like it! The only thing I would say is the reds don't match. The ribbon on the bottom does not match the ribbon on top. Is the bottom cross grain?
