look what i did this weekend - designed my rehearsal dinner invites

look what i did this weekend - i designed my invites for our rehearsal dinner - my invites are all white pinstripped (and i am going to make my whole wedding around that theme - so decided to do the rehearsal dinner with 'black pinstripes' with a splash of red,

what does everyone think...
i didnt put an rsvp in there - do you think i need to?

here is also a pic of my invites to show the white pinstripe -

Re: rehearsal dinner invites

Wow--the RD invites look amazing! Are you a graphic artist? I would DEFINITELY put an RSVP either on the invite (like RSVP to 555-5555 by _/_/05) or include it with the invite. You really want to know how many people are going to be there in order to plan for how much it will cost, how much food/tables you'll need, etc.

Re: rehearsal dinner invites

yeah - thanks - i am a graphic artist so doing this sort of stuff is so much fun for me - i cant wait until i get closer to the wedding and i can go ahead and do the favors, programs, menus etc......

i wasnt sure about the rsvp - i figured since it was only going to be the bridal party and immediate family that everyone was going to be coming....

but then again you know what happens when you 'assume' something

Oh! Speaking of 'assuming', I just assumed that everyone was like me and is somehow having 40+ people at the RD, including OOT guests In your case, you might not need the RSVP then

Re: look what i did this weekend - designed my rehearsal dinner invites

we did a RSVP with a call only....not one that needs to be sent back.

Re: look what i did this weekend - designed my rehearsal dinner invites

lol - you are correct to assume ----
we are having the ridiculously large rehearsal dinner - but only because our bridal party is so big our three readers and immediate family.

i guess i was just thinking that everyone would have o come - after all it is MY REHEARSAL DINNER lol - there goes my bridezilla

If you don't mind me asking, what type of program did you use to design them? They look great!

Thanks
