Looks good to me!

I just finalized my proofs this week, so I totally sympathize with not finding any mistakes b/c you've stared at them so long. LOL . When I showed my FH he found like 3 little things that I totally missed.

isn't six thirty hyphenated?

Not sure

i think that the date is supposed to be capitalized

See I thought that too!!! But I went on some sample wording websites and the only thing that was capitalized was the day of the week and the month. So I don't know what's right or wrong

1. I say yes, put FH's last name. thats the way it is in most of the invite books I have at work.

2. six-thirty should be hyphenated

3. the date doesn't 'have' to have caps but you can do it that way if you want. I will check the books I have at work to see what they have. Let ya know tomorrow.

so exciting! cant wait to order mine.

Should add your last name...

It's the same as my parents.

Most invite books I saw had the groom's last name (even when it said 'son of') and not the bride's.

Is that not right?

Yup - the one I took this from did not have it capitalized, which totally goes against my instincts!

the brides last name is not typically on the invite.

I'm sure it is fine anyway! I guess it's not really a mistake - just a matter of preference!

Jess...it looks good...one thing...

It's Two Thousand Eight - take out the 'and'....

I agree with all 3. I have around 15 samples in front of me and none of them have the date in caps.

I think it looks perfect...no errors or mispellings...i know i needed several pairs of eyes to proof mine...you kind of become blind to them after a while
