When my wifey suggested at Christmas that we get married, both of us decided on a Springtime ceremony.
We’d been dating for nearly 7 years and didn’t want to wait any longer. He and I weren’t interested in a substantial ceremony or reception for our own purposes. The people I was with and I planned to only invite our close friends and family and generally keep the guest list as small as possible. I assumed that arranging a super intimate but lovely ceremony would be simple. However, I still wanted a selection of beautiful flowers and a pretty ceremony cake. I still wanted to wear an attractive gown and have lots of professional pictures of the event. The people I was with and I needed to find a locale and take care of the selection of food and the music. The short timespan made everything a lot more difficult and generally stressful… One of the greatest complications was getting ceremony invitations perfectly printed and sent out. The people I was with and I hoped to alert our guests to our wedding date as soon as possible. The people I was with and I needed to get the RSVPs back in my hands in order to arrange for seating, food and drinks. I didn’t realize precisely how several decisions were involved in choosing a ceremony invitation. I went and sorted through endless styles of invitations, colors, paper stock, fonts and even types of dedicated envelopes. The wording for everything from our names to the date and time of the wedding ceremony was a consideration. The print corporation was easily helpful. I even worked with a consultant who was experienced in ceremony invitations like this. She provided expertiseable recommendations. She made sure that the invitations were all going to be printed respectfully and arrived on time. While both of us originally thought that planning a ceremony in only a few weeks would minimize the stress involved, it easily made the whole entire process more difficult.
