A PSA...

... to you all you brides who haven't sent out your invitations yet.

P R O O F R E A D   P L E A S E ! !

Just got a wedding invite in the mail yesterday, and I love these friends dearly but they apparently missed the proofreading memo. The invite is complete with "Your Invited!" in huge letters at the top, and apparently "the favor of a repy is requested" by November 12.

Please please proofread your invites, because people do notice when you don't.

That is all.

    I know. We invited them to come over this weekend and I think I'm going to put the invite away before she comes up. I don't have the heart to say anything to her.

    I think I spent more time reading and re-reading and re-re-reading my invites than I did actually designing them. I was soo paranoid of something like this happening.

    Okay kids, I've got to get in the shower and get ready for work. I'll be back in an hour when I get to the office. At least it's Friday, and it will be just me + one coworker all day. I'll probably be slacking off on TK all day. :)

    Oh man!  That's terrible. Just yesterday, the episode of Everybody Loves Raymond where Ray and Robbie screw up Robbie's wedding invites was on.  This made me think of that.

    Okay, I'm at work now.

    I forgot to mention, when I showed it to H last night his response was, "well at least they didn't send registry cards." Hehe.

    I think it's good advice anyway AK, and it's important to have a fresh pair of eyes.  Sometimes you can reread something and just not catch it yourself if you're the one who wrote it.

    Oohhh that sucks. But still not as bad as an invite I got with the word "marriage" spelled "marriadge" several times throughout the invite. It wasn't a proofreading error, just a spelling one Undecided
