Save the Date!

Save the Date!, originally uploaded by bertine.

So, we have our save the date cards addressed and ready to mail. Our wedding website is mostly ready to go. Since we have almost all the addresses already the invitations will go much faster.

I am pretty excited about this.

BTW, you should know that I would invited every person on my friends list if I could but weddings are expensive. Please don't see it as a slight if you don't get an invitation.

Also, marioche69 designed the invitations and I think she did a great job.

My parents got married on the same date, 1950.
I like the card, very stylish :)

Yay!

(also, people should never assume an invitation to a wedding unless they have reciprocal "you're my best friend" convos with someone. Otherwise, it's presumptuous. I mean, *I* know I won't be attending your wedding. and there's no expectation that you'd invite me, either.

Well, ok, if you were throwing a 500 person shin-dig, I might then expect an invitation, but seriously? Expecting an invite is rude. sheesh. people.)

I sometimes feel weird talking about it so much and then not inviting people. However, I read about other people's wedding planning and don't expect it.

It isn't a 500 person shin-dig, more like 150-200. So there has to be a limit.

It is a good date. Who doesn't love boxing day?

I love the little birds, they are so cute.

I agree Scotia_girl. I too know that I will not be invited and it doesn't bother me. I did tease her once that those of us who don't get invites will have a party out on the street in front of their venue. She reminded me that it will be on Dec 26th and cold out. I keep thinking, "But I'm a Minnesotan with cold weather camping gear, I can do this." LOL!

Don't feel weird talking about your wedding day Bertine. {{HUGS}} Live it up!

Love the design for the card.
Am totally looking forward to eventually seeing pics of your wedding and reading all about it.
I'd tease you and ask you where my invite is but I think you have enough going on without the teasing. ;)

Don't feel bad posting stuff. It's your journal, it's your wedding. However, I might suggest not linking to your wedding website (with RSVP and location info) unless you trust the interwebs not to crash it. It's an awesome site, though! NO ONE should feel entitled to go. It's an awkward situation and it's your (or your supergenerous beneficiaries) money.

THAT MEANS IM INVITED RITE

Cute! And that's my parents wedding anniversary - how nice :)

[bertine.livejournal.com]

Usually they do but most places have the day off because Christmas is on a Sunday. I bet you have it off.

[bertine.livejournal.com]

You can only RSVP if you are on the guest list. It is possible that someone would crash the wedding but I am terrible at keeping secrets so I'll just take the chance

[bertine.livejournal.com]

If you want to think that. :p

[sithlet.livejournal.com]

Fair enough!

[sithlet.livejournal.com]

There goes my husband being a dick again.

[bertine.livejournal.com]

He is the one I have to worry about crashing it!

[sithlet.livejournal.com]

I'll try not to let him. What a dick.

[mesawyou.livejournal.com]

the birdees are cute!

[polyranger.livejournal.com]

Maybe you need a bouncer!

I said that exact same thing in a blog post and one of my acquaintances ended up throwing a hissy fit and making a huge drama out of it and now won't speak to me or my husband. SOME PEOPLE.
