    so I am getting married at a hot air balloon museum - which we're very excited about!  We're getting ready to order the invitations and have been tweaking the RSVP wording to

    Kindly Reply by the Twenty Third of April
    M______________________________

    [ ]Yes, gas up the balloon [ ]No, grounded due to high winds
    Number attending_____

    And furthermore we'd like to say __________________________________________________________

    The problem?  My mom thinks that people might actually think we're going to take people in a balloon.  Do you think the wording is fine or should we change it?

    I think it's super cute! I'm sure if people are confused they'll call you or you can just put a cute disclaimer at the bottom that says something like:

    "Fear of heights not applicable" or something...as soon as I started typing that I couldn't think! lol

    I'm with your mom on this one.  I think it's confusing.

    What a cool place to get married!  I agree with your mom, though; when I first read it I thought the reception was somehow going to be up in the air... you don't want people saying no just because they're afraid of heights of something Smile

    I like the creativity of the wedding venue and the invite but it needs tweaked a little.  Maybe "we'll be there to witness the start of your new adventure"....or "we'll be there for 'take off'", the quotations indicating that it is...well, not a real 'taking off the groudn kind of take off'.  You'll think of something.  Have fun with it!

    We did cute wording for ours.  We are having a 1940s WWII inspired wedding so our RSVP cards and invitations look military fontish etc. So our reply said

    On Duty and AWOL.  In (  ) below each we put Will attend and will not attend.  No confusion. 

    Here is what it looks like

    On Duty               AWOL

    (Will Attend)         (Will Not Attend)
