Bride Blogger Update: Invites!

Categories: Bride Bloggers, Invitations May 1, 2012 / Danielle Freedman

Bride Blogger Marybeth is down to the final count and is here to tell us about her invitations!  For me, while I have been in the wedding industry for quite some time now, I am still always learning something new…and today, Marybeth has introduced me to a new vendor and idea! 

***

With under 30 days to go, our RSVP’s are rolling in and final details are being decided.  Our invitations went out the standard six weeks prior to our wedding date, and now that our guests have seen them first I wanted to share with you the final product.

Months ago I wrote a post about the monograms we had created.  I absolutely love our monograms and definitely wanted one of them incorporated into our invitation.  During one of our trips back east James and I looked at sample invitations our wedding planner had and showed her ones we liked on Minted and Wedding Paper Divas.  We quickly realized we favored the clean, white space look and wanted to do a landscape-formatted invitation.
