sways ~ I also have some people/friends that i want to invite... I'm afraid to send out too many invitations until I get enough NO's.. *sigh*.  going away would have been so much easier (on one hand)... but maybe not in the long run either.

FH says we should just invite them, cause he figures 1/2 of his guests won't come. But I"ve heard that sometimes it's the people you don't expect to come, that actually do! crap.  LOL

I'm so happy I just got the invitations! I'd love to show them to you but I can't seem to figure out how to get them from Adobe to a format this site registers as well as be able to see them!

If any one has any suggeations let me know - I'd love to share!

I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one who experienced the guest overload. I just never knew how many people were important to me and FH before so it's a little overwhelming. Just hope it's not an overwhelming amount for the reception. I don't mind the mingling part when it comes time but it's being the center of attention that I'm not 100% sure how I'll do. Sometimes I like it and other times I feel uncomfortable and out of place.

Celestial: I agree with you that if you have a restriction on numbers then it would be best to wait for some no's before inviting more. You don't want to end up with 150 people for a 100 person space. Unless you want to start thinking of doing the reception cocktail style.

Nicotina: Ooooh I'm not sure how to change the format of the invitations but I'm happy that you got the invitations and can't wait to see them. You could always take a picture with your camera of them and upload them if you can't convert the file.

Sways: Awe big hugs. I'm sorry to hear your MOH isn't what you were hoping for.

What a wonderful day!

Popcorn - Thanks for the advice - I just might do that!

Sways - What's going on - can we help?

Does anyone know why when you send out the invitations you put little numbers on the back of them? I have only ever received them and I have offten wondered about this.

I want to send the two international ones today and then do the rest on Sunday night and Monday.  I want these babies out!

OH I think I found a DJ - He however also DJ's at a very notorious strip club when he's not busy with weddings and what not.  I really don't want to hear something from the stripper's routines all night! LOL - JK - I think it will be good!
