Invitations May 11, 2008
So I ordered the invitations. I bought the kind that you can print yourself, so the plan is to take them to Kinkos or something like that and get professional printing on them. I chose to go this way because I really liked the invitations. They are simple and minimalistic and pretty. Basically because my dress is a light blue color and Fred will be wearing his uniform which is green for all of the decorations and other items I am going for a nice simple white. The linens are all white, I want to order a white lilac bouquet (I still need to do that) and now the invitations are white, so this will look good I think.
Now I just need to think of a good way to put in the invitation that the bride (me) will be wearing light blue so people don’t wear that color. I don’t mind if people wear white, just don’t wear my blue 🙂 If I was having a bridal party I would probably want them all in white. I mentioned the idea of the mothers wearing white to Momacita and she was dead set against that. More rules about weddings that I don’t know.
Well now comes the hard part, the invitation list. I still don’t have many addresses and it is frustrating. I will figure it out I am sure.
Still to do:
- Flowers
- printing and addressing invites
- cake (need to order and confer with mary about decoration)
- Music (need to secure speakers and find out if Greg is still going to help with the playlist)
- rings (need to place the order, like now)
- hair (need to make the appointment)
is there anything else I am missing? not sure, please suggest things to me
