They sound so mean when I read Mr and Mrs Smith Will Not Attend. lol I know I picked the wording, but it really sounds harsh in my head. I wish I had put something like 'Can't Make It' or 'Bummed, we have to stay home'. Something with a better ring to it, KWIM? Its a tiny detail, but I swear its bothering me! So, thought some of you might benefit from this.
Also, I pre-filled the cards with peoples names. Found a Sharpie that matched the ink color and filled them right in to prevent 'extra' guests. Seems to be working so far and no one knows that's the reason I did it.
Not to sound like a complete idiot ..... But i was wondering - with the guest have a zillion kids did you put 'and family', list them all or just fortunate enough to not have to worry about numberous "brady bunches" from my fiance's brothers....*sigh* Just curious.
Thanks,
