Wedding Invitations

Hi, happy TGIF to everyone! Well, as some of you have read, my youngest daughter is getting married in September and I volunteer to make her invitations, and thank you cards. I made up some samples and mailed them off to her and this is the one she picked! Now, they are very simple and not big ones, they are the standard A2 size card. Yes, I know, now a days they all make them bigger but in reality, many, many years ago wedding invitations were actually nothing but a postcard! Can you image people sending out postcard invites today!! I don't think that would ever happen! Here is what the front outside looks like.Here is what the inside will look like, I left the information off, but you can get a general idea of what it will look like. Purple is her favorite color, so that is what I'm using.
I still need to make the response cards to go on the inside, see the ribbon on the left side, that is where I will tuck the response card into and I'm seriously thinking about making those into postcard sizes, saves on postage and also saves on having to buy extra envelopes too. I have about 30 put together so far, I just wanted to get a good jump on these to make sure they are all ready by the time she needs them, now off to make some more!
