Save the date

Now is it time to start thinking of inviting people to the wedding. We have a long list of people we would love to see on our wedding and many of them are busy working hard. So we thought that a save the date card would be good to keep them from booking something else on our big day and some do have a long trip to plan as well.

My fiancé and I have been looking at different styles for invitations and programs. I find it a bit difficult to select colors... the Victorian Lilac, which is in the dress, is a bit hard to match. The color wheel tells me I should go for orange or maybe blue/dusky pink. The dusky pink fits very well together with the lilac in flowers but the orange gives a hint of warmth and sunny. Maybe we can use all three??

The design of the save the date card will be a petal envelope. Something likes this:



Ours will hopefully be lilac with a white or cream inside and then some ornament. We sat down yesterday night and tried to decide which font to use. I think the Bridezilla is starting to show up. It is just a font and I want it to be perfect... *sigh*
I'll create some examples and then we'll have to pick one. I already have the cut file (WPC) for the Bosskut Gazelle ready, so it is just to go. If you are interested in the cut file please leave a comment on this post with your email address.
