Hey Ladies!! All done the invites!! I've put close to 24 hours worth of work into these bad boys so I'm pretty damn proud of them ! Being a graphic designer I put way too much thought & love into these...

I also took pics as I put them together and I'll be posting it all in a new thread, but I was too excited to wait to share!! Here they are! Let me know what you think

 

[Brandy]

I LOVE THEM TRIS!!!!!!!!!!!! They are AMAZING!!!

Where did you get the tan/linen looking pockets?

[tris]

Brandy. I made them . It's all from scratch. The linen fabric is actually cross-stitch fabric that I bought at Micheals by the roll

[Brandy]

Oh wow!!! They look amazing!

Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous! I gotta give it to you!

I have shown FI my dress online when I was trying to decide on a style with many others of course but he won't remember that it was even one I showed him once it is on me lol

Greysgirl-Wow good for you, you got ALOT done! Funny that you posted that suit link, I went to that site today but it says it is down for maintenance so I can't see any of the suits. Oh yeah girls I finally got FI to agree to wearing a suit! YAY well minus the tie but that's ok. He already has white linen pants but I don't think I will be able to match a jacket to it so we may have to find a white linen suit if anyone has any suggestions for sites I would love to hear them.

Oh and I found sandals at aldo's today for 50% off Paid 28$ taxes included. And found stuff for my gift bag for the flower girl and ring boy and that was about all I accomplished this weekend. Well i also kinda figured out what excursions we are going to do on each island we are visiting in greece just haven't booked them yet.

If you're looking for a linen suit, there's a whole thread on here about $99 linen suits from a company in India. Here's the link to their site:

A lot of girls have been very impressed with the quality.  Because they are custom made and shipped from India, you have to get on that pretty quickly with our weddings fast approaching!!  Hope that helps!
