For girls doing DIY invites.....

So I just mailed mine out and got back my first RSVP card from my boss. I didn't put much thought into the reply card, just copied the sample. which was:
XX and XX request the favor of your
reply by no later than XX
M____________
__ Will Attend
__ Will Not Attend

Looked like what i have seen before so i went with it. well he puts his name and just checked the 'will attend' line he didnt write if he was coming alone or with a guest I'm now afraid ppl invited with a guest will do this!?!?!?! just a heads up... i wish i would have specified the line was for # of guests

You are diffently helping me!! I have been trying to figure this one out also. I want to invite people but not the entire family/friends pack. I have a number I want and I have been a stickler at it lol.

---

I think I would have just checked it as well..I thought you just specified when you addressed it.

---

what do you mean when you address it? I think this is just going to be a problem with unmarried people invited with a guest.... like my boss did, he didnt specify if he was going to bring someone.

I did

__________ accepts with pleasure
__________ Declines with regret
__________Total number to Attend.

So I know it is tacky to fill in the response card, but for the people I wanted to bring guest. I wrote in their name + guest.

did anyone use the bRIDES DIY kits from michaels?? Im thinking about it I saw a really nice one.

---

No, Mine were from Walmart. I did have one other little problem with them tho, the RSVP envelope was the same size as the pocket it went in so they didn't fold without putting a crinkle in them. Not the end of the world, just wish they would have folded with out a problem.

I made my own from scratch, no DIY kit.

I finally found something I like and its a BRIDES kit. Bought one to see everything. On the box it appears the ribbon is double around the invite, but theres no way its long enough to do that...anddd the bow tieing was hard. I emailed the company and they sent me 'instructions' that basically said 'wrap the ribbon around the invite and tie a knot' great help right? lol

That darn ribbon is gonna be my only challenge i think.

If anyone has tips pls let me kno! TIA

I did mine like this, and only had to call like 3 people, and most of them got it right.


I think one 1 or 2 people f-d up.
