Wedding Stuff

bertine1. Today we have a cake tasting. We also have one on Sunday. Yes, it is early but I felt like it and my dad was excited. Plus it was something easy to cross off the list (unlike dress shopping). I have decided this is the way to planning a wedding, making the decisions on all the things I really don't care about early and all the other things I'll deal with when I really need to deal with them.
2. I picked out wedding invitations. Again, I know this is early but I need to send out save the date post cards in June or July and the only bad feedback on the seller on Esty was "she is slow" so I figured I would order with plenty of time. I am going to order the save the date cards soon and then order the invitations in July when we figure what food we are serving.
3. I was thinking about making my own invitations but then I realized that I could do freelance web stuff and make money to pay for invitations and not drive everyone around me crazy. I think this will be a much better solution. Plus, I don't really care if they are fancy invitations. All they need to do is tell you "Here is where the party is, here is a handy map and hotel information, tell us if you are coming and what you want to eat". The Save the date cards are just because we are getting married on Boxing Day. Which reminds me, I have been meaning to make a save the date facebook event.
4. I am trying to decide if I care enough to put a picture of us in the save the date postcard. Thoughts?

We, for example, are NOT picture people so doing a pic for some aspect of inviting would have been a burden, not fun. But if you guys LIKE pics, then it could be really fun to incorporate one!
