Invitations May 26, 2008
I have my printable invitations right here, I looked up the nearest Kinkos and printed out directions. I have set up a word doc and pdf of both the invitation and RSVP card. Simple but elegant IMHO. Now all I need to do is go to the store and get them printed.
I plan to do this either tomorrow or Wednesday, then the Canadian addresses will be sent from Canada and the US from the US, to make life easier on all parties.
I still have to print the blue cards informing everyone that the Bride will be wearing light blue (and to not wear that color) and the address labels, but I can do that here at home. (My mother still insists that these need to be hand addressed but if I want them sent out then I need to just run off some labels because this is getting silly. I am running out of time, and I know this is my fault as I am not the most punctual person when it comes to details like this.
If you have not sent me your address please do so immediately. I am seriously lacking on addresses and I know people are going to get mad at me over it.
Also, the non-north american invites might not go out as it seems like those people won’t be able to attend and it might come to a price issue. I am pinching all the pennies I can, but if I can, I will send them along later. It is a time and money issue, not a I don’t care about you issue.
thanx
Your mother sounds like she doesn’t understand that the world has moved past the hand writing and why waste all the effort to hand write an invitation? It only slows it down in the mail system (no matter how neat your handwriting is) and that’s not your thing. I think an online register was plenty. They could at least see what you want there and go buy it in a story if they are still not into online shopping.
*hugs* Good luck!
