Hi yall

Please proofread my invitations and give suggestions. Also what letter goes in the middle? I'm totally confused, both of our names begin with A and both of our middle intials are L. I know we're not suppose to use our last name since we're not married yet... Helppppppp.

i would put the website on the accommodations insert, if you have one. but not on the invite itself. And i would change it just three oclock and hope people show up on time

Yea the ceremony actually begin at 3:30 and I know MY people will NOT be on time lol.. BUt it will suck for the people that are actually on time huh?

yeah but u figured the people who are always later will see seating begins at 3 and think "oh i can take my sweet ol' time" an then show up at 345. the ones waiting at 3 know weddings never start on time. i think if u make it sound like it starts at the, the ones who are always late will stroll in around 315-320 and not disrupt anything.

Hi Tone!  {wavey}

1. your and FI's name go first - Toni and Art together with their parents, the way it reads now nobody and nobody are requesting something, make sense? 

2. 19th is misspelled

3.  change "seating begin" to "seating begins" OR remove it altogether, it's redundant, seating begins at the time stated on the invitation.

4.  the style of your invitation looks formal, if so, replace the 3 after his name with ", III"

s'all I got.

oops, one more:  the swirly curly q thing is pretty enough to leave bald - consider putting nothing (no letter) in there, because technically that's right you don't use a monogram until such time as you both have the same last name.

my apologies i'm fully caffeinated today, way more diplomatic on decaf.  notes crossed in cyberspace but suggestion was to put nothing there or if you feel like you should, a different graphic altogether, but whatever it is, not a letter.

I totally agree with Sultry with everything! If you are not having an invitation suite, then I would keep your wedding website address on the invitation. However, if you do have other cards or some type of invitational suite, then place it on one of those cards. 

Toi, are you using the informational card? If so, I say put the time you will start the wedding. Other than that, it makes it seem like YOU are starting wedding late IMO. Regardless if people show up late, they cannot enter or will be seated in the "late seating area" if you have this option. If you are getting married in the church, does the church have an upstairs where the late comers can sit? I would make this clear to the ppl that if you late...no front row show!!! But, that's just me.
