we picked - we picked - we picked - invites

We have decided on an invitation.

drum roll please

It's the Jean M 'Jean' in grape with platinum backing, platinum ink and platinum ribbons.

The thermography is excellent and the paper is very heavy like I wanted. FI picked it over the other choices and said it's the most 'elegant'.

I just ordered my Jean M invites as well. I'm getting Gwen and putting my own ribbon on them. I think they wanted a lot to put on the ribbon and they didn't have one of my colors, baby blue.

I'll post the proof when I get it.

Congrats!

Wow - I just looked at Gwen for 125 & it's over $250 LESS than Jean. Will they format it so you can add your ribbons w/o covering the wording?

My favorite color is purple. I plan to have purple flowers, purple menus, purple program covers, purple rose petals for the toss, purple cry pack labels, purple ribbon for my kissing bells, a periwinkle (nearly purple) Kolo album (for the guestbook) and purple on everything else I can think of.

Thanks. I'm rethinking them though since they are $468 for 125 (just the invites and ribbon). Without the ribbon I can get Jean M's Gwen for $202 for $125 and add my own ribbon. I told FI and he thinks we should do the ribbons on our own - in addition to the programs, petal cones, menu's, kissing bells, cry packs, and favors.

I may

I'm sorry. Didn't intend to trick anyone.

Nope, that will be the easy part since I know the 2 I like the best. Waiting on FI to make the choice of his top 4.

We may see one more hall though - so top 5 for him (?) and maybe 3 I like in the end.

Beautiful! I know the pictures don't them justice-show how rich they are in color and the luxurious weight of the paper-but they are gorgeous!

I think they color combo is great!!! I just love purple.

I put them over my purple chenille blanket so the color is more visible in comparison to the cardstock.
