    Hiya,

    I'm just dipping my toes into this whole wedding planning thing (exciting!!), so I figured I'd start off slowly... with save the dates for all our overseas family.

    If you have a moment, I was wondering if you guys could give me some feedback on these three different versions (differences being color v. grey, minor wording changes, and font size)? We're having a fun, casual backyard/garden wedding so I don't want anything too fancy, but I'm not sure I haven't gone too far with the casual thing...

    What do you think??

    (Jeepers, if I can't make up my mind about something like font sizes, how in the world am I going to make up my mind about a dress? Laughing)

    Hmm, the grey turned out crazy pale when I made these into jpegs... they would actually be legible! Laughing

    I love the color and font size of #1, but I love how #3 says "they're."  Very cute!

    Wow those look great. I love the color and font size of the first one. Like beachbride said, could you possibly change the first one to say "they're" ? That seems to fit better with the boy/girl thing to me. Great job!

    I definitely like the top version. And I agree with the 'they're' too.

    Thanks so much you guys! I swear, all the nicest folks are on Weddingbee :)

    I've been fiddling around with these again this afternoon, and I tried to make the bunting look a bit more... umm, distressed, maybe? But then I thought, maybe the clean look is better... goodness, this stuff is hard!

    What do you guys think?

    I actually don't like the polka dots - I think it makes the design too busy.  But I like the font on the upper one, and the waviness of the bunting.  (I also prefered "we" to "they" but it seems like you've already chosen there, so no need to change).

    I like the cleaner version (w/o poka dots) better.  Are those going to be your wedding colors?  Are you going to carry that design over to your invitations? 

     

    Are these going to be postcards?  What are you going to put on the back?

    I love the simplicity of the initial one, but the dots are cute. What if you just do the dot pattern in a few of the triangles but keep them all clean shapes? Best of both worlds?

    I like the more simple one, without the dots. They are so cute!

    Also, I'd be curious to see what they look like with your names in colour too... Just a thought!
