UPDATE: The designer from The Modern Bride got back to me and was soooooooo SWEET. She made a bunch of suggestions and was even willing to change pretty much everything! I really do love the box but just those minor changes. I will update when I get the new pics. Thanks so much for the help girls!
I just got my pic of my card box from The Modern Bride and i'm not sure I really love it.....something about the big starfish on front is just....tacky???? or am I nuts. Please be super honest, I need it. Don't just try to make me happy and say it looks nice, this thing wasn't cheap! I love u girls, thanks in advance!

I have to agree with you I'm not wild about it....def don't like the starfish.....I also kinda think something is off with the khaki/tan color? It just doesn't seem to mesh to me.....

Re: Need Opinions ASAP Puh-LEEEEZ!!
Here's my honest opinion.
It is absolutely beautiful....but i think you're right about the starfish, i would have them replace it with the same type of shell that is on the bottom. I think it would match better since they're both on the same type of ribbon ya know? But really it is gorgeous!

Re: Need Opinions ASAP Puh-LEEEEZ!!
I can see what you're saying about the starfish and the beige box. Otherwise, I love it...very pretty! It should be that big a deal for them to change those two things. They can just remove the beige box. And, it looks like the starfish is actually over the ribbon. So, if there is a mark when they remove the starfish, all they need to do is replace the ribbon.
ETA: I really love the blue and pink!

I actually like the starfish. It looks like a beach type theme going on with the box. But I didn't like the polka dot section on the box.

Well, you're not tearing it apart. You're just asking for a couple of adjustments. It really is pretty!

Re: Need Opinions ASAP Puh-LEEEEZ!!
let me just saw though as a recipient of one of their cardboxes. I thought my ****** a little when I saw their picture.. but when I got the box in person & saw it myself I was in love. Their camera ***** and doesn't do it justice. You will like it tons more in person. My own picture sof my box are in the album & while those aren't the best shots they are better than the picture they sent me.
also I doubt they will change the color, because usually they have you proof the fabric they are using before hand but they may swap out the starfish & some of the embellishments though if you really hate it.
But again let me saw their boxes look prettier than their pics

Thank you so much for letting me know, that makes me feel alot better. I'm going to ask them to do something with the huge white shells, the rest of them I love. I was expecting small boxes around and stuff too so I think that's throwing me off. I hope they don't get offended.

The starfish doesn't bother me. I actually like it. They only thing I don't love is the tan with the polka dots.

If by some chance they can not change it, even though you may not be loving a couple of little things, it is very pretty the way it is! Don't feel bad.

I actually like it...the starfish goes with the seashells that she added to it. But if your second guessing then you obviously don't 100% love it so I'd change it until you're 100% happy.

IMHO: I don't see anything wrong with it. I like the starfish and those must be the colors you told them to use right? Let us know what they say before they send it out.
