Was just looking at some samples and came up with this...it just looks so WORDY or is that just me? Oh and as far as the address for the church I've googled and the only address it says it corner of ES road. So is it ok to put it like that? Its a small town and the church really is out in the country. My family all knows right where it is but FI's family doesn't.. God has led two lives to take one path... Krystle ____ ______ and ______ Justin _____ together with our parents invite you to share with us a celebration of love The ceremony will be held Saturday, the twentieth of October two thousand twelve at four o'clock in the afternoon E_______ Baptist Church E_______ and S______ Road E________, Georgia Reception following at P_____ Community Center P_____, Georgia

You can take out "The ceremony will be held".  Also, you don't have to put the address of the church, you can list that on the directions card in an insert of the invite and on your wedding website (if you have one).  That way it would read:

God has led two lives
to take one path...
Krystle ____ ______
and
______ Justin _____
together with our parents
invite you to share with us
a celebration of love

Saturday, the twentieth of October
two thousand twelve
at four o'clock in the afternoon
E_______ Baptist Church

Reception to follow
P_____ Community Center
P_____, Georgia

I like that MUCH better lol. Only thing is we don't have a wedding website and if we did no one knows about it. We weren't planning to do any inserts with the invitation. The places are all fairly simple to find. The Church is on the road its named after you just follow it until you run into it ..like I said its way out in the country like 8 miles out. The reception from the church is so easy. The other road that makes the corner you leave on that road headed left if looking at the church. Go to the dead end and take a right, your first left and follow that road into the downtown area where the reception is. I'm not good at directions but all his family knows where the reception venue is and most all of mine know where both are really.

Just noticed that I forgot to tell you to take out the at in "at 4 o'clock". As long as people know how to get to places, I think you can go without the direction insert. We're not doing direction inserts either. Ceremony and reception are at the same venue that's pretty well known. I did put directions on our wedding website though.

I think the "God has led two lives to take one path..." would look really nice in a larger font of a different color, instead of putting a picture or design.  If you have the whole thing printed out like it is on the post it looks really long.  Also "God has led two lives to take one path Krysti and Justin invite you to their wedding" doesn't read right to me; I think it would read a lot better if the first phrase is separated from the rest.

Yes, I agree with PP.  I just assumed that "God has led two lives to take one path" would be separated from the rest as like a header.
