Any luck with the invites? I didn't want to spend alot either, since like you said, they go in the garbage! i ordered mine from Carlson Craft. As you may remember, my grandfather owns a catering hall in Queens ( fingers crossed he sells soon) so we were able to get 40% off.
Do you have any pics of what you like? Maybe we can help.



What catering hall does he own? i am only asking because mine is in Queens and I want to make sure its not mine. If you dont want to post it you can FM me.

I did so much looking between last nite and all day today and I sent away for other samples. The invites that we originally decided on are in my album. Its the 3rd one under 'invites I am thinking of'. i did find the same ones at the American Wedding so I asked for a sample so I cand see how the paper quality is

Cee, call Minute Man Press in Mass Park. He has so many books. Ask them if they carry the ones you want. It couldn't hurt. Don't stress, we will help you.

Also look at rexcraft.com

I would still call Minute Man Press in Mass Park. They are real easy to work with. Ask them for their hours and go through their books.

I dont know right now- I think after New Years we may go find out info about the wine we are using as favors. I am still waiting to find out about my knee. My MRI result isnt back yet and I am going to have to wait till Tuesday now.

How about you Renay? What are you up to? dress, invites?????

Re: Official 30+ Brides (previously 40+ thread)

I went to try on some more dresses today..found one I really liked (didn't that it's the one feeling though)...anyway the woman tells me it's acutally a Fall 2007 style and she is not sure they still make it....

If they didnt make it anymore why would they still have the sample?
If you feel its not 'the one' I wouldnt rush into it anyway. Did you have fun though?

RK Bridal to try on, but I have not rule out having it made. I still want two dresses and I don't want to spend a lot. If I find a great evening gown in White then all bets are off.
