Invitation Madness

This past weekend was not one for the weak of heart or cutting hands. Couped-up inside Gloria's house we made our wedding invitations, and the pictures that follow document the craziness that was had (and there is still yet more, as we still need to add addresses to all of them).

The invites were quite the multi-media undertaking. All of the text was designed in Photoshop and then printed off onto card stock....



While I did most things Photoshop and computer related (most things), Gloria prepared the ever important return addresses on the back of the envelopes.





While most of the day was spent finalizing print options, buying card stock, and finding stamps, the real work began early in the evening.






Gloria's sisters Molly and Cassie helped us out with the initial assembly of the cards.


Eventually though it became a family affair.






Gloria's Mom, Deb taught Molly the finer points of bow tying, and in turn taught us all a valuable lesson in....well, in bow tying.





Cassie was sassy





eventually the members of the assembly line whom weren't getting married left the factory.





Later we were left with the finished product...






...which you should be receiving in the mail shortly!

Special thanks to Molly, Cassie, Doug and Deb with all the help!

I too wish I could have been around to help; but you are doing great! I have been sending as much positive energy as I can muster your way though. Hope to see you both soon in Macomb.
