Invites...Ready for Take Off

Last Saturday my pink fairies arrived at our home. We are to assemble the invite.

I let them decide the style on how to tie the ribbon of the invite since it is only one page. They can do which way they want to ribbon it. I have an organza ribbon in chocolate brown which I bought in Divisoria (P100 for 1 roll or 100 yards).

As they were doing that, I did the guest list. The names of the guests will be printed on a sticker paper so there is no need to handwrite the names in the invite. Lesson learned: Finalize the guest list, complete with their names and professional designations in life (Dr., Atty., Judge, etc.), before assembling your invites. It took time for me before I was able to finalize that list. The Cook didn't know the full names of some of his relatives. Argh!

Another lesson learned: You can print the "We have reserved ___ seats for you." in the invite. I was thinking of not putting that in the invite, thinking we could just spread this information through word of mouth that we are having a small wedding. But, my pink fairies said that guests will think twice of bringing their whole clan to the wedding if this vital information is printed in the invite. So, I printed the reserved seats info in sticker paper and decided to put it at the back of the invite.

At the end of the day, we were able to finish all the invites (too many. I overestimated).
