yes they are in , but I am waiting for the envelopes to be calligraphied ( if thats a word) . When I write my review, I will give the fun story on my invites, it is by far the most annoying experience regarding this wedding so far .

KK, that's so exciting. Diana does great work. I'm having her do my menus!

You and I will be getting married the same weekend just down the road from each other!
