We included our names and just put "Cindi & Chris" then our address. Our invites weren't that formal though.<br /><br />If you're going for the more formal feel, I've received ones where they've printed out labels and placed the return address on the back flap of the envelope. Or you can handwrite them..but if you handwrite the return address, you should handwrite the guests address too. At least that's what you'd read if you searched the internet about ettiquette. You can read a lot of different things on the internet but really it's about what you guys want. I hope this helps and that I've answered your question. Let me know if I've just blabbered! haha.Cindihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848440319205474182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574709881657676926.post-81461334353340983422010-06-11T14:02:25.002-07:002010-06-11T14:02:25.002-07:00Hey Cindi I have a quick invitation question for y...Hey Cindi I have a quick invitation question for you...where do you put the return address on the outer envelope and do you include names or just the address? Does it go on the back flap?

I'm totally comfortable again today too. :)<br /><br />Aimee - Aww...that's so sweet to renew your vows. By that time your kids are big enough to see and understand the commitment you guys have for one another. How cute! 3 months...wowsers! Well, you know when it's right and although we waited for awhile before we were financially ready, we knew a couple months into our relationship that we were right for one another. We have other touches we'll be posting, including a home made guest sign in book. So stay tuned!<br /><br />Carol - Oooh...your invitations sound so nice! And how cute to use her painting. We were totally going for something different than the average invites and we're so glad we did it.<br /><br />Sammie - Yes, I'd LOVE to see your invites. WOW 550 guests? I can't even imagine where they'd all fit. haha. Most of my family is not in the country and Chris' Mom's side is in the Philippines, so if they were all around, we'd probably have around 350 or so. So maybe it's a good thing they're not? :)<br /><br />Sara - Aww..when are you getting married? Isn't it a huge load off of your shoulders to get those out? Now more little details to worry about right? Aye! I can't wait to hear about your big day. I hope you blog about it. :)Cindihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11848440319205474182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574709881657676926.post-16855027167378460222010-06-11T05:46:30.941-07:002010-06-11T05:46:30.941-07:00I just got my invites in the mail yesterday and we...I just got my invites in the mail yesterday and we're hoping to send them out tomorrow :) We are SO behind in sending them out, but luckily the wedding is small and mostly family.Sara-You, Me and Anthropologiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15078764380537953169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574709881657676926.post-63870131948333543052010-06-10T23:17:16.873-07:002010-06-10T23:17:16.873-07:00Cindi!

Maybe I will post pictures of mine soon (we got married 2 years go, while I was in school, ugh--not the marriage part, the school part ;) ps. I am so jealous you only have a 100 guests, I had 550!

Our actual wedding was small and very disorganized becuse we got married after only knowing one another for 3 months. (crazy, I know) So i didn't get a chance to have my "dream wedding". I can't wait to see more of the little details for your. I love weddings!<br />The tan line isn't so bad -- I could only see it when i clicked on the picture and it enlarged. I'm sure it will be gone by august! You've got 2 1/2 more months :) no need to worry! you look adorable.aimeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04100006825860879447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574709881657676926.post-8867327177341297752010-06-10T20:20:02.801-07:002010-06-10T20:20:02.801-07:00OMG, I LOVE your invites!

Yay for your fiance!<br /><br />And I hear ya on the comfy clothing. Somedays you don't want to work on wearing anything special, you just don't want to tug, scratch or pull all day. It's still adorable, though! Thumbs up!Michelle Qhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05835200271142861714noreply@blogger.com
