invitation wording

I'm getting ready to send my wording over to my invitation people.

any spelling mistakes, things you would change...anything miss manners would cringe at?

When should my RSVP date be?

I think April 14. That gives them time to reach you - about a week so April 21.

Then you have 2 weeks to call those who won't send it back.

Re: invitation wording

looks great laura! i only did one thing different on mine, i put five o'clock in the afternoon since it is before sunset. i'm not sure which way is right, yours might be, but i think its also personal preference, hence i say it looks great!

(phew! was that a run on!!)

Your way is correct. FH skeeps telling me its wrong, evening is only after sunset or something.

I just liked the way evening sounded better

I love the wording Laura! I can't wait to see it. If you have any left over, I would love a souvenir invite!
I like evening better too! Go for it!

I can't wait until the first review of our wedding hall!
