I am making my invites with the help of my very awesome friend. Our wedding does not have a theme, per se, but we did want to add some old world charm to it as the venue is a historic building with lots of wood and antique accents.
The invitations are a simple flat card, a direction card, and an RSVP postcard, all tied together with twine and placed in an envelope. We are including a small 4x6 engagement picture of both of us in the invitation bundle, and I'm wondering if that should be considered our favors, or if we should do something else at the actual wedding.
What do you guys think?
Re: Pictures in Invites
A favor is usually given out at the wedding, so I don't think you can consider this a favor. But here's the good news -- favors aren't required at all, so you don't need to do anything else. If you do decide you want to give out a favor, edible is usually best.
Yes it's a seperate photo. If we decide it's in our budget we are planning on given a small mix of Jordan almonds and peanut M&M's (I'm from Jordan, and he loves peanut M&Ms).
So the pic in the invite is not a good idea? We already sent out the save the date cards, so that's not an option...I just wanted to add a personal memento of us, especially since most of the guests are his family, who are either from out of town or live in different areas of Texas...
