Invite Dabbling...pt 2

Before I continue, I need to revisit a few old posts and make clarifications.

I wrote a post about building the wedding website (here & here), which was a major headache!!! But I knew in order to customize the website to my needs/look I needed to build it myself. One of the main reasons it was important for me to have the website was for RSVPs (I will show you how it looked in another post).

Why?

•                I could save on postage and paper.

•                I didn't want cards being mailed back to me. 

•                It was easier to track and keep a guest list

•                I didn't have to guess who was having what for their meal (I customized the site in a manner where all that information would be listed in a spreadsheet, thank you Google!)

My mother stated I couldn't do it in that manner because not everyone had a computer or was familiar with it. My response everyone knows someone that has access to a computer :-) issue solved!!

Now you understand why I was giving myself a headache over the website, it wasn't only for informational purposes or for people to leave well wishes; it had a bigger purpose.

Moving on back to the invitations, from the last post I showed pictures of the first draft and how it still did not fit my vision. Back to the drawing board and thinking of a way it would incorporate the theme and this was the end result:

With a pocket behind the invitation, I had 3 inserts (RSVP information, directions & hotel accommodations) that looked like mini-boarding passes.

Travel theme was on its way!!
