Invitations

...are being mailed today!  Eeep! 

We went the DIY route because my FI thought we could "save" money.  I doubt we did, but it was definitely a labor of love.  Luckily we only needed to make 26 so it wasn't that bad.  I love how they came out and I promise I will try and figure out a way to post some pictures.  I have misplaced my camera - what timing! 

We went super non-traditional for the wording.  Here is what we put:

"Christine and Curtis invite you to join them as the hold hands, say I do, and smooch shamelessly in public."

I hope people get our sense of humor.    We are sending these out a bit early (we are 3 months away) but our RSVP date is one month prior to the wedding.  This is making it seem so REAL.  Wow!

So exciting, can't wait to see them!

Although, just because your RSVP by date is a month before the wedding doesn't mean you have to send them at the three month mark.  8 weeks before the wedding still gives your guests a month(ish) from when they get the invite to when you want the RSVPs back.

Thanks everyone!  I will try and post pictures this week.

I agree Jena.  I moreso sent them this early because it's a destination wedding and I wanted people to have time to plan for travel, take time off work, etc.  I didn't want to send them too early either and felt I was right on the cusp!
