So now that I spoke with the church and our start time is confirmed, I want to get on ordering these invitations. I also have a coupon code I want to make use of so I may be ordering very soon!
This isn't the exact preview of what the layout will look like (I won't get that until after I order the invitaions and they send me the proof) but this is close enough for you to get the idea. The text will no be overlapping onto the graphic or anything when laid out properly
The first option I used the quote on top that we used on the front of our programs.
The second option, I put 'Together with our families' (or do you think it should be 'together with our parents'?). FH and I are paying for the wedding ourselves but my mom has paid for my dress and basically my entire ensemble for the day of, she's going to be paying for my shower, and FIL's are going to be hosting the RD - so I do feel like they maybe should get some kind of mention on the invite.
Or do you not like any of these options, or do you have a different suggestion of how to word it?
personally, i like #2 better even though i love the quote!

Re: Which Invite option do we like better?
another option might be to only put the city, state for the church and that way you can do the quote AND put together with their parents

I feel like #1 is too squished together but they are both great

I agree and that's what was throwing me off about it as well.
Well if I go route #2 - do you think it should be 'Together with our families' or 'Together with our parents'?

I voted number 2 but i would take out the address of the church - and move the church's names down so that its spaced better

I guess it's true I don't really need the address on there - I am going to be making direction cards to go with these and that will have the full address on it.
I'm going to edit it this and repost with your suggestion

This is nice... You can include the address and directions on an enclosure card maybe?
I have the address on my invite but that's because there is another Church of the Good Shepherd in 'New York, NY' and it's an episcopal church.. I think you're safe with putting Bronx, New York without the street address

Did you want to add Miss and Mister to your names?
Like this..
Together with their families Miss Andrea Jane Brigante and Mr. Robert Holden White request the honour of your presence at their marriage Saturday, the tenth of July two thousand and eleven at half after four o'clock
First Congregational Church Richmond, Virginia
Just a thought...

that's what we plan to do - we are going to have directions to the church and to the RH and have the full addresses of both listed on the insert.
