Hi all...many (many) of you are so creative and always have good suggestions so here I am asking for some help, if anyone's up for it. I am making my own invitations using a petal envelope and 3 flat cards on the inside....one flat card is brown and the other flat card is light blue (I cut it down a little so you can see the brown peeping from behind) and the 3rd card is a metallic white--which is the one I'm using to write the invite info on. This card is approximately 5x5, not much room to work with. This is my verse:

 

Because you have shared in their lives

by your friendship and love

you are invited to share

with our daughter,

 

Jessica Torres

and

Dominique Rodrigue

 

when they exchange marriage vows

and begin their new life together

I used Chopin Script for our names but the spacing just seems off...and I wanted to have a pretty, swirly ampersand (in light blue) in between our names but I cant seem to do it right or create something eye-catching. The rest of the wording is in the Flourish font. I'm using Word (dont know if this is the issue with spacing, etc)...any suggestions would be gladly appreciated...so sorry this is lengthy. TIA!!

I actually made it in my FotoFusion program and the font sizes there aren't the same as in Word or Powerpoint. I basically just created a 5x5 canvas, then a couple text boxes, copy/pasted her text and hit a button to size it to the box. It seriously took me like 5 minutes for the whole thing... I love that program!

    • Hi everyone! I have been doing lots of research on various wedding venues all around Mexico, my fiance wants a destination wedding and I am happy to have a wedding wherever so long as the vibe is right and guests are happy!  I have been seriously looking at Cabo Azul and was trying to find potential costs for them, but only found a page about their wedding costs from 2010. Does anyone have any updated information on costs / reviews they would like to share of this venue? Or advice in general, anything helps. Thanks so much, happy wedding planning to all!
    • Hello everyone, I am dreaming of a wedding in Costa Rica and was wondering if I could get any help with venues and wedding planners. I am thinking Tamarindo because a close friend of mine lives there and I've been in town more than a couple of times, she's being helpful but is at a loss when it comes to this subject really so I was wondering if anyone here had recommendations. I am not closed to other town suggestions either, if I happen to find a good place and staff somewhere else. These are the places I have so far, has anyone had any experience with any of them?  Stay In Tamarindo Luxury Villas in Costa Rica Luxury Villas Pinilla Tropical Homes of Costa Rica The Point Luxury Villa Thank you so much for your help!
