Invitation question

What do you think about having the church and reception information together on the invitation, instead of having a reception card?

Yes, I can't get away from White Aisle. Everything I look at doesn't compare. I'm still thinking of the Lily, but I love the new paisley invite that is out.

Did you like your samples?

Loved them. In the final stages of my mock-ups.

Oh Bon- Are you ordering the menus and placecards too? I was thinking of having a friend who is a graphic designer copy the design, or professionally scanning it to use it.

I am having them do it - table numbers and menus. I'm doing my own placecards - I wanted to do something funky and different. My DIY!

Thats AWESOME you have a friend doing it! I'm jealous!!!!

I also wanted to do something different for my placecards. I really wanted to do a placecard tree.

Thats awesome!!!

I LOVE the tree idea! We're doing placecard boards (like below). I'm on the hunt for ornate gold gaudy frames. I want to frame each board and put them on easels. We'll see what happens.

I give up on DIY's really quickly!!!

I love that idea! Looks gorgeous! I want directions so I can make one for a picture board in my house.

Re: Invitation question

i'm pretty sure i'm going to do this. no reception card, and just have reception immediately following on the invite. it should be a little cheaper too, i think?

For me, it would be $1 per invite so, $150!!!
