    Just got the proof back for my invites. I actually really like them a lot and love the price! What do you guys think?

    Also you will notice that our moms have their names on the invites rather than, Mr. & Mrs. XYZ. They said that they are individuals and they would like "their" name to be on the invite too...I love it!

    I love the graphics, especially the burnt orange trim. Are you looking for critiques as well or just wanting to show them off?

    Thanks ladies!!

    @Texas, either or...please tell me if there is something that you think I should add/take away/change. =) This is just the proof and I seriously got it like 20 minutes ago. My FI is in bed and it is to late to call my mom...so I thought I would show you guys! Ha!!

    Haha, well I love them-- seriously! But... I didn't want to give a suggestion that might be unwanted.

    I was a graphic designer years ago, and the only thing I don't love is the font choice for your names/RSVP/"Reception to Follow"

    I just think that the script is very recognizable, and for a custom invite, your font should be more unique. Does that make sense?

    Love them! They are simple yet elegant. But I am a sucker for a silhouette nature graphic.

    And FWIW, I don't recognize the script font! :)

    Makes perfect sense! Good suggestion. I am not 100% sold on the "you" and "kindly" on the RSVP either. Overall for a "first draft" I think they turned out pretty well though. Thanks for the suggestion, I really do appreciate it!! ;-)

    I love them! Burnt orange is going to be one of my accent colours

     

    Is it rude to ask you how much you are paying per invite?(I know you said you liked the price)

    @NZBRIDE, Thank you!

    Not rude at all. I think the more you order the cheaper they are per invite. I am ordering 145 and I am paying approx 1.15 per set. That includes the invite & envelope, RSVP postcard and return label that matches the invite. Great deal I think!

    Just one critique--move the "kindly respond by the 20th of August" to another location.  That area is used by the USPS to add a barcode during mailing.  You don't want to risk not getting RSVPs back because you have text there!  Even just moving it up a little bit would work.  :-)

    Very lovely invitations, though!
