    Colors are shades of teal, chocolate brown and copper. This would (hypothetically) be the runner on the left side of an engagement picture to go on a postcard. What do y'all think so far? What should be changed? I appreciate any comments! Last name is blurred out, obviously...

    The design looks really cute! I think you should include the area you're going to be married in, though.  We didn't put the actual venue, but we did put Santa Cruz County, so people knew where/if they'd be traveling.

    I agree with the area idea.
    This is super cute and I love the different fonts!!
    With the pic added I think it will be perfect! :)

    I like it but maybe if there is a way to adjust the color for the "copper" I'm seeing more a red rust, but that is totally nit picking

    Very cool! I'd put HEY THERE or YOU instead of the FRIEND, not sure why, just my opinion.

    Also I'd try a brighter shade of the rust/orange.

    But i really love them! Great job!

    @natbug21: Yes ma'am! I have my church (I went to Loyola, so that was easy!), my reception venue and my dress. Now I'm on the prowl for a cake!

    @rubyroad10: Awesome :) I am getting my cake done at Sweet Life Bakery, and Nikki who has been helping me is awesome! She quoted me half of what everyone else was quoting for the same thing!

    @rubyroad10: Definitely do a tasting at Flour Power.  The cakes were so amazing.  I am getting white chocolate strawberry shortcake and they are so nice to work with.
