Wedding Invitations

Hi everyone! I promised to give updates on the wedding planning so here is update número uno.

We all know that there is a rule of thumb for the amount of time the couple has to send invitations, thank you cards, and other sorts of correspondence , right?

Well, invitations should be sent out six to eight weeks prior to your wedding date. Madblogger and I literally chose our wedding date at the end of July which gave us a smidget more than three months to plan, and about a month and a half to send invitations to all of our guests.

I will admit it... I am a frugal bride who would much rather splurge on food and makeup than to spend hundreds on invites. After checking places like:

Ann's Bargains

Zazzle

Wedding Paper Divas

My Gatsby

and many many more, we decided to use vista print. Besides, our theme is modern elegance so I believe we could pull anything off! Any one who knows me understands that I am simplistic. It does not take much to please me. Gold and a little vintage print for about seventy cents an invite made my day.

I would like to leave some things to the imagination as I have just finished sending them out.

Let me know what you all think in the comments.
