Who wants to see my DIY Water Bottles??? - WITH POLL

So my weatherproof labels arrived today and I just had to make sample bottles.

First off, love the labels. I got them through OnlineLabels.com (search for Bottle labels and then you choose which size bottle you'll use and order the style you want)... I'm going to use Poland Spring 16.9 oz bottles. The labels feel slick, in a good way. Gotta test out how waterproof they are.

I made 4 (slightly) different versions of the labels. Let me know what you think!

Also, should I do all the bottles exactly the same for the wedding? Or choose two (one with white background, one with blue) and do half and half? This is what I'm leaning towards.

Here's a closeup of one of the labels' layout so you can read it.

Here's a front view of the bottles:
From left to right, we'll call them #1, #2, #3, and #4

Here are the side views:
(Left side view with white and blue backgrounds, followed by right side view with white and blue backgrounds)

Also, if you think I should go with two different styles, can you tell me which two? I have two favorites already, but don't want to skew the results yet.

Edited to add: Feel free to make any suggestions for improvements! This is my first draft - turned out better than I thought, but I'm open for suggestions.

I'd do a combination of #2 and #3; but that is just because I looked closely at your descriptions. I really couldn't tell them apart, other then the one with the white backround.

Really nice though!!

I voted for #4 because I like the way the monogram looked with the border. I also think that doing half white background and half blue will look great.
Whichever you go with they will look amazing! your guests will definitely be impressed.

I like the idea of two different- love all white background and then all blue background with white around monogram. I voted for all white in the poll bc I like that one best.

I want to do this too! So, did you input your monogram on that website or you order the labels and then print on them yourself?

I ordered the labels (blank, weatherproof white labels) and downloaded the outline/template for the labels from their website. Took 2 seconds. Then I opened the template in Word, and inserted my monogram, the 'Nutrition Facts' chart, and a text box to type in our Thank You message (bilingual).

I can email my template to you if you want.

Thanks ladies!!!! The ones I liked best were #2 and #3 (because they are the same design just opposite colors so I felt like that combination was best).

Does anyone have any suggestions for anything I should change at all? I would hate to print all the labels and then realize I should have changed something! Thanks!
