Otherwise those are amazing! You did a fabulous job
Thanks Christine!
I should've pointed out that I deleted the last names on the parents names, lol. Otherwise they are centered.

I know, that script is so pretty but so hard to read! Its the reason why I added a third script and used it for our names. The problem is I'm limited with size. I'm making the pocket folds myself out of an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet. the final envelope will only be 8 1/2 by 4 so I needed to make sure all the inserts fit. I figure, most ppl know our parents names, and the location so they can make it out, lol!

OK, you know I'm a font junkie. Will you share what fonts you used? I really love the script one your names are in- but would love to know which you used for everything if you're willing to spill the secret
Thanks sarah! What a compliment coming from you
I will def share my secrets, you know I don't hold out. I was going to wait until I finished them to post pics and instructions, but these are the fonts ( I tried attached them too.)
Scripts- Helinda Rook and Carpenter Block- Episode I
(Gotto love dafont.com)
I REALLY wanted to use Cezanne but I didn't want to pay for a font. So I felt that Carpenter could still give it that look. But yes, its hard read

Also - LOVE!!!!! that you indicated the number of seats you had for them - no unexpected guests. Absoulutely BRILLIANT!!!
Thanks! We needed to at this point. I actually left the space blank when we sent our Preliminary RSVP (w/ our STD's) and EVERYONE warned me. So there were quite a few suprises (i.e. someone I was expecting to say 2 said 5!) So I'm going to add the # of ppl the indicated when they responded to the Prelim Response.

Beautiful.
Thanks! I really wanted to incoorporate this line. I acutally took three different invites, 2 friends and Anny's, and meshed the words together.

I do think the font your location is in might be a little hard to read, but maybe if that line was just a little bigger it would be fine. It's such a cool font I probably wouldn't change it. Where you wrote "cocktail" it's not hard to read, so I think it just needs a little more size.
Beautiful work!
Thanks!! so much !!!
