When are you sending them out?
When is your RSVP date?
When is your final # due to your hall?

Thanks!!

i'm still trying to pick out invites - i don't like any but i guess i'll do a May 1 RSVP date. So i'm not sure yet when i'll send them out.

what type of invites are you looking for?

i don't like anything that's pink, has flowers, stars, castles, hearts, couple pictures. also really sick of plain white or ivory embossed.

my eparty invites i printed and got from papyrus, and the thank yous were vera wang, very simple with a brown border and so classic. BUT I love the vera wang and kate spade ones yet i am not willing to spend that much on invites!

see what a pain i am?

i'm so the same about this! i typically do not like stars, hearts, flowers, couples, etc. and i did not want plain white! AND, i fell in LOVE with kate spade invites but they were ridiculously expensive so i ended up ordering somewhat similar invites from weddingpaperdivas.com. they are REALLY reasonable in price and were great to work with.

thats one site i was going to recommend to her. Very contemporary invites and great styles

yeah, they're great. they did my STD's and i loved them. the other thing, that they do not really say on their site, is you can pick any color from any invite and apply it to the design you like, or you can use one of their 'custom colors' i think it's all explained under their customer service section but you have to click around!

I know I am psycho BUT

I know of a couple of weddings on the same day as mine.. and though we're not all close friends, we do have mutual friends amongst us..

And I know how people are.. they take forever w/ the RSVP stuff.. and some don't even bother sending it, so a lot of phone calls need to be made and i'm just giving our parents the extra time to beat up those think it's beneath them to RSVP!!!!

That is early but you are a holiday weekend so good thinking! I am hoping all with send back responses RIGHT AWAY but I know I am being dillusional

It's the weekend after..

but based on our engagement rsvp rate.. i know i'll be bangin on doors.. my parents made the phone calls.. they refused to let me speak to these late responders!

i had to laugh when i read this - i'm the same day as you and EVERYONE thinks it's memorial day weekend!

i'm still trying to pick out invites - i don't like any but i guess i'll do a May 1 RSVP date. So i'm not sure yet when i'll send them out.
