My invitations!!!!

Shutterbug678

My wedding is October 23, 2010 so just shy of 3 months away!

Nothing like waiting until the last minute huh? haha It took me 3 days, but I finally got my invitations, RSVP cards and registry cards created and ordered! I did the design myself and i'm ordering them from Vistaprint! I saved 50% off the whole order!

This is our invitation

This is the RSVP card...

and this is the registry card!

What do you all think??!

What do you think of the registry card? I got some comments on why I did them and I am putting them with wedding invitations because there are many people who will not be coming to the bridal shower but will be coming to the wedding and need to know where we are registered. I know there is a lot of etiquette about not telling people where you registered and making it word of mouth only...but I talked to family and they find it annoying when they have to try and track it down....

The past 6 weddings I've been to, registry info was included in it. I didn't include it just bc of etiquette I guess but I don't frown on it by any means. I think it's just a regional thing. 

And they look great by the way!!!

They look awesome! I love your colors! I didn't include the registry info in my invitations and I've had several people ask me if I was even registered anywhere since I didn't include it! So I think you can go either way with that.

If your family shares wedding registry information I wouldn't worry about it.  I didn't do it but I wouldn't be offended to get an invite with it included.

I love the invitations, the color is great.  I'm not putting our registry information in the invitation but I did include a card that has our website address on it which people can get the registry information off of and our families are good about the "word of mouth" part

I did this too.  Where I'm from (SoCal) it's a big no-no to put registry info in the invites but FI's family were annoyed that I didn't because they have always received registry info in wedding invitations.  So I guess it just depends on what works for you and your guests.  By the way, I think your invites are beautiful (the pink is great)!

I really like your invites, but be cautious of putting the registry card in there.  Many people will find it helpful, but those people won't be too inconvenienced if it's not there.  Other people will find it presumptuous and rude.  Those people will be offended by it.  IMO, better to follow the rules of etiquette than possibly offend a good portion of your guests, KWIM?

The last wedding I went to, they included information about gifts with the invitation, and I heard several people talking about it (not in a good way).
