Preview my Save the Date cards! Need a good proofreader.

I did them myself, so I want to make sure there are no errors! I appreciate any help. Not sure if you can read these? And I left off the return address on purpose.

    They look very cute but I can't read it :( 

    Kudos to you though for putting that together!

    They look okay to me. I might put October 11, 2011 just to make it more clear (even though it's on the front). To help others read, you may just want to copy and paste the text so we're not turning our heads sideways to read!

    They are cute and I did not see any spelling errors.

    Looks good to me!

    But I do agree with the suggestion to add the date to the back.

    I agree, it might be more clear if you would add the date to the back, but I think it works either way. They look so cute!

    ****Re-drafted TEXT***

    A friend just told me it was odd to use third person and per your suggestion I added the date.

    We hope you can join us to
    celebrate our marriage.

    I was going to nitpick about the 3rd person thing. The 3rd person doesn't bother me, but mixing POVs kinda does. Like "We" and then you have your names. I did 3rd person, but I did not put "we" anymore. It was just like, "Amber and Josh are getting married in Fort Worth, Texas. Save the Date"  type of a thing.
    Disclaimer: Please excuse the above comment. I'm probably freaking out because there is less than one month to go. Thank you.

    winechic--let me know if you need any help? I had to pay for some design elements from shutterstock ($49), but I'm going to use some of them again for my invite. I have 3 downloads left on my plan so would love to split the cost with someone and would be willing to help put it together! I'm going to print the cards out with 123print.com for under $40.
