    I really like the border! Not sure how true this is, but I heard you are not supposed to use your monogram until you are actually married because it isnt officially your last name yet? Just a thought.  Also, I think the "september" is hard to read. 

    And yay for Nazareth Hall :)

    They are beautiful...but agree with pp that it is not reall good to use your "married" monogram or list anything with you having his last name prior to the actual wedding.  Instead of a a formal monogram...maybe you could just use your first initials.  "E&S"  ???

    The word "September" is somewhat hard on the eyes...especially if you are sending to older people. 

    The only other thing is that although it reads "formal invitation to follow" you haven't actually requested anyone to save the date.  You may want to consider adding "Kindly save the date...formal invitation to follow" or something like that.

    Ditto all of this!

    The design is great, and a few tweaks would make it perfect. :) :)

    thank you everyone! and this is why i love getting input from you all! lol. i never thought about the monogram thing, but it makes sense. i guess i was just so excited about getting married i overlooked that. i will also revise it to include "please save this date" or something similiar.

    on a side note, we took a tour of nazareth hall today before we put our deposit down & im in love. lol. i told my fiance if he didnt want to get married there i had to find someone else who would. hahaha. im veryy excited & september cant come fast enough! =)

    Nazareth is soooooooo pretty! I love your STD, I agree with pp's but I love the direction it's headed! I would like to know if you would be interested in doing something for FI and I?? I have a specific idea but can't find one pre-made. SO FRUSTRATING!!! PM me if you're at all interested.

    im going to have them printed through vistaprint. it will probably be cheaper than printing them myself by the time i buy all the ink & vistaprint provides free envelopes.

    Makes sense.  Let us know how it goes!  I'm thinking about ordering through them, but I'm just not sure quite yet...
