Let the Inspiration Flow!

We're 7 1/2 months out from our wedding now. Most wedding etiquette experts suggest sending out invitations 6-8 weeks before the wedding. That would put us in early May (6 months from now).

Even though that's a long way off, I like to start looking at invitation inspiration now. I've been saving photos on my computer so when the time comes to start designing them, it'll be easier to narrow down what we like.

I love the script at the top of these cards. That, and those adorable chicken and cow pictures at the bottom....


I love the little dotted design on these cards...


The way the words are formatted on these cards is adorable. But older guests may have a hard time reading it...


Pop-up invitations?! Yes, please...


The calligraphy in this suite is to die for (and probably just as expensive!)...


Despite what wedding experts say, I think we plan on sending our invitations out a little earlier. The majority of our guests are from out of town, so we'd like to give them plenty of time to plan their trips.

I'm setting a self-assigned due date of February 1 to have all the invitations figured out in my head. That way, I can take all the time I need actually getting them made. The Gocco adventures will be plentiful!

:-) I have those first two (especially the first one) marked as inspiration photos, too! Great minds must think alike!

Just let me say I am not paying for any wedding that has a cow on the invitation.
