The invite decision!
Well I did it; I finally got the right invitation picked out. It took many hours of looking through books, researching on the Internet and designing the invite to fit our style. I chose a newer style of invitation called the “pocket” layout. It is made to hold the reception card and response card in a pocket so that it is nestled nicely in the invitation. The theme for our wedding is “A Black Tie Affair” so everything at the wedding will be decorated around this theme. The invitations are of course black and white and are very elegant to fit the theme of our special occasion. I suggest for wedding planning to start out by picking wedding colors and a theme, and then choosing everything around the colors and theme. Doing this will narrow down your searches and keep you from getting to overwhelmed. Believe me, when you are wedding planning this is very important.
I also finally chose our save the date magnets. They again are based around the same theme. They are a black and white photo of my fiancé and I all dressed up on the cruise the night he proposed to me. The picture was taken after he officially purposed, so it was the perfect match for an engagement photo.
Would you mind posting pictures of the invitations. I an sure they look great the way you have described them in the posting but I can’t wait to see them,so please post some pictures
