Hi ladies! I'm also a 2011 bride. I've been on BDW for a while, but just came across this thread! We are getting married June 14, 2011 - the 14th is a lucky day in my fiance's family and it's my Papa's birthday - so it holds some special meanings for us :)

 

So far...I've done our monogram (see below :)), started playing with templates from other brides and making them my own (chapstick lables, playing card labels, pre-wedding newsletter), we've put a deposit down on our hotel, chosen flowers and cake flavor, put a deposit on a STD (I'm lagging on this one and need to get them out ASAP), and...I think that's it. Seems like more than I thought, but still have a lot to do and know time will fly by!

 

Question - Is everyone doing a STD and invitation? I was thinking of sending a "tentative" or informal RSVP with the STD and then either skipping invitations and sending out newsletters to keep guests informed or just sending invitations to the people I know are interested. Seems silly to spend $ on invitations to people I know aren't coming.

 

Happy planning!

Welcome!! My wedding date is exactly one month before yours!!! I am sending STD and invitations. But the invitations i'm doing my self so am saving a lot more than i would if i were to have had them made. I know more than half wont be coming but it's not because they don't want to but because they can't afford too. So i want them to get a pretty invite still. :)

We sent out STD magnets, I think it was about $140 for 100 thru Vistaprint. And our invites were about the same. FI and I are fairly laid back, and I wasn't too worried about having a fancy invite (ie bows, monogram, etc.). But we did feel we should send offical invites out. We also included travel info/prices and our TA information.

We are just sending out STD's with an R.S.V.P. to our wedding website . . .the way I see it the whole purpose of a DW is to save $$ and almost everyone has an email address nowadays!

I am also a 2011 bride :) Getting married in October at MLD!
We are doing the RSVP via our website as well. Although funny enough we have had a number of guests book their trip and RSVP yet. Thank goodness we stay in touch with our TA and she keeps us up to date as to numbers!

This is what I was thinking too. But, I did start playing with some DIY boarding pass invite templates yesterday. If I can do them cheap enough, I may send them out... who knows? I gotta start by getting my STD's out :)
