The Invitations are in the mail!

[SASSYGIRL]

Your post is so funny - thanks for making me smile!!!

 

The invites turned out terrific - I am leaning towards doing these type too so I will need to pick your brain about the detail you learned durring the process!

 

How soon is too soon to send your invites out I know we have talked about this on other thread but just wondering when is the earliest anyone has done it? Christa's wedding is only 2 months away - I will die if I have to wait until May to send mine out....

WOW they're amazing!!!!

Yay! Christa, I'm so happy for you, that must be a huge relief to have that done:) Once again, they look awesome and I'm already playing around with ideas for mine- they probably will look very similar...great final product!

These are so cute! I love them they came out so nice. You must be so excited but now you will have to play the annoying "waiting game".

Thanks Sarah. I felt like 2 months in advance was reasonable for me because I had sent STD's in June or July, so everybody was "in the know." I just felt like this was appropriate timing. Not to mention that many of the details I included in the invitation would not have even been thought of if I had done it any sooner (welcome dinner).

Thanks Nicole! Yes, it feels very good - but nerve wracking still....I had a dream that they all got returned in the mail for not enough postage.

Thanks ladies! Yes, the "waiting game" what fun! Actually, I'm getting excited that a lot of people are now talking about coming that I never thought would. So, it should be fine.

And definitely contact myself & Karla if you plan to do these pocket fold invites. I can only imagine how many more issues I would have had without Karla's advice. I've had some additional "learnings" that I would be happy to share with anyone considering doing this.

Christa - I LOVE them!! They look professional! Great job!! I'm going to start thinking about mine next weekend. I'm sure I'm going to have tons of questions... Yours look fantastic! Congrats!!
