So very confused on what goes first and this works....please set me straight!!!!

[KelZavs20]

Ok, so i spend hours on this board...reading, admiring others work, and getting myself all pumped up...BUT i have no clue where to start!!!!

 

I really LOVE the passport idea..are these used for save the dates or as actual invites? or do you send out just a little save the date, and then send the passports like 6 months before?

 

Please help me, this debate is becoming a heated one amongst the "planners" aka me, my mom, and the soon to be hubby.

 

THANKS

It's all completely up to you! i did a boarding pass as a STD, and then we are going to have some sort of formal invite (that, I am not making myself!)

MANY have gone boarding pass then the "real invite" is the passport. Equally, some do a passport as a STD and then something else for the invite. Or vice versa, or none at all.

Hopefully I've helped and not made you more confused!

You can do it either way... we sent out very casual STD's and are doing a more formal invitation... but I love the passports as invites too! Just depends on what you want to do!

Someone posted a somewhat similar thread earlier this week:

thanks girls for your input....how does this sound?

the wedding is a year away (almost exactly)...i do have all the information regarding hotel, prices from TA, etc.etc.

would it be weird to use the passports as the STD, and do a formal invite prior to the wedding say like 6 weeks before with an rsvp for the AHR and/or DW?

We sent out little vista print magnets with a note as an STD as soon as we knew the date and location. Invites went out about 5 months ahead and they were boarding passes

This is something that I am planning on doing. I have an idea as to what all I am going to put on the note but what did you put? I just want to make sure I give them as much information as possible
