Proofreading...Lesson Learned

So my engagement party was a couple of weeks ago, and I sent out all my thank you cards this past weekend. To be cute, I made return address labels for the envelopes that read 'The Future Mr. and Mrs. Ross'

Or so I thought. I got a call from a friend today asking in jest if there was we wanted to share, because the labels actually said 'The Future MRS. and MRS. Ross'

I can only imagine what some of my elderly aunts will think if they notice lol. Oh well, they always knew I like to be different.

Needless to say, I will be re-reading--and re-re-reading--every single piece of wedding-related paper that leaves my house from now on lol.

Ah it happens! I am a horrible speller and grammar wise as well. Its always good to have someone else read it over. But don't sweat it. I think people know what you are saying?

Not that it makes it any better, but at least it wasn't on a save the date or invitation!! I'm sure people know what you meant lol! Don't sweat the small stuff... Just make sure you have another set of eyes proofread from now on if it makes you feel better!

Not the end of the world! I think if people notice, they'll laugh it off.

I had favor tags that I made on Zazzle that accidentally said Thanks you instead of thank you! I was so mad at myself I had to order them twice.

This is one of my fears!! I read stuff so many times I miss the simplest things. Get another pair of eyes next time. Maybe a sibling or a parent.
