When Taro proposed, he used a short fairytale based on our own relationship. When the wedding planning started, we wanted to capture that moment somehow - warm and whimsical. My friend Angel designed our invitations with this idea in mind. In order to save trees and money, we signed up with WeddingWire.com to host our website and rsvp. Since the URL would be too long for our RSVP bookmarks, we just purchased the domain - a small cost compared to rsvp stamps costs.

I'm drooling at the budget for your invitations O.O I hope your blog never expires if/when I have to worry about this too!
ReplyDeletehaha, of course we also had to over order since we had NO idea how many we'd messed up. but the paper can go to other things, such as the program and table menus.
ReplyDeletejust wait, when it's your turn -- i bet even bigger and better craft things will come out. oh the fun we'll have crafting together!!
