wording of 2003 on invitation..help

how are you writing out 2003 on your invites?

1. two thousand three

OR

2. two thousand and three

does it make a difference? or is there a correct way?

ahhhhh...

actually, the proper way is two thousand three. you never say and unless you get to a decimal point. however, no one will really pay attention one way or the other so you are fine.

You're absolutely right Sandy. I had the same question when I was wording my e-party invites and I found out that the proper way is without the and.

The woman who helped me with my invite said the company would put 'two thousand and three' regardless of what I wanted but I insisted that I wanted 'two thousand three' because it is the correct grammar. I triple checked the invitation proof and they printed it the way I wanted it. Use whichever you like better but be sure to check the proof.
