I’ve been working on my invitations for a while now & need to get them printed off soon. Sorry for the size & fuzziness; I don’t have any cool toys at work, and when I converted these to graphics it made everything look funny. These will all be printed on cream/off white card stock, with purple backing where it looks like a border. The font color will be the same on everything. I’m not sold on the fonts, so feel free to suggest fonts. I want one script for the headings, and a simple sans serif for the rest of the text.

 

Our wedding is a pretty casual affair, small, mostly immediate family and close friends. Definitely not a formal occasion, barely a step above backyard BBQ.

Invitations: the running joke for us has been “what happens when a Jersey boy & redneck girl fall in love?” so I like the idea of using that on our invitations.

RSVP card: not sure if I want the hassle of printing off everyone’s name individually or just have a line for them to fill out. These will be postcards so the back side will have our address printed on them.

Programs: each page will be cut to size, then bound across the top (staples? ribbon? something else?

@OkieHeart:  I would suggesting using contrasting fonts. Use something with a script or scroll for tour names and the jersey boy & country girl. Maybe something like Lavenderia and Matchbook. I think the contrast will help to break the wording up. More visually appealing. It looks pretty good! Good luck! 🙂

@Lizabean:  I second this. Having a script font for the highlights, and a block font like copperplate gothic for the rest of the information will make it easier to read. Other than that, it looks good!
