When: Wednesday March 30th, 2011

Where: Una Pizza + Wine (618 17th Ave SW, on 17th between 5th and 6th Sts)

One of the best wine selections in the city, and amazing appetizers! Lots of street parking nearby.

 

Can everyone throw me a PM so I have an idea of numbers?

 

See everyone soon!

I made my own Passport invitations because... well I dont really know why haha, we just didn't want to pay $8+ per invitation.  Can send you my template if you felt like doing it yourself as well.  I'll be posting it in the template section once I have a chance to remove all my personal info from it too .  If you decide to go that route, just know that it is a lot of work.

I'm seeing other companies online from the States but was wondering if anyone in Calgary specialized in these.
I went to a couple of the wedding shows in January and didn't see much selection.
If anyone could tell me where they got theirs printed it would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

 The 30th is pretty much the ONLY night that week that I am busy, going to the hockey game that night!  Any chance we can meet on the 29th instead?

Now that we're done with the house, it's starting to sink in how close the wedding is. FI is on his bachelor party weekend right now! His friends took him to Kamloops for 4 days to hang out in a chalet and learn to snowboard. I'm actually enjoying having the time to myself so far, but it just feels so weird to not have him here And of course a small part of me is worried about what kinds of things might be going on...sigh...

 

Tomorrow I'm going for my boudoir shoot...I'm very excited, but also very nervous. I'm using Anna at Cineart in South Calgary, I'll be sure to let you know how it goes!

 

I would LOVE to meet up with you all on the 28th but I have a Monday night class at Mount Royal till mid-April I'm so sad to be missing out! I completely understand if you can't change it, but I thought I'd throw it out there that I can make it any other night that week!

 

- Sandy

 

Linds, you look beautiful!!

Star18 - did Staples  give you options for how the color(s) turned out too? Nice to see how cheap this is!!

They have 3 types of white cardstock type paper of different thickness, we chose the medium one and it turned out great. They were mostly cut out, just had to round the corners. It was really cheap like $20 or $30 at the most.

They didn't give me any options on the color, but they did let me print a couple trial ones to see how it would look for free which was nice. The color turned out fine though. Just do a sample first and see if you like it.
