\\:: Bridal Shower Invites!! :://

A day for the Bride! 

Typically the Maid of Honor, or even Mother of the Bride will host a Bridal Shower for the Bride to be. All of her lovely friends and family members will join together to prepare and celebrate her becoming a Wife. While every Woman has a different taste, the theme your ladies come up with should be tailored to your taste. I've found some sweet and fun invites to round up your ladies! 

Creating Mailing Labels in Excel

Not everyone has the perfect hand writing, and lets face it. Writing out all of the addresses is a pain! So check it out, you can make your address labels in excel. Not only does that make it painless for you, but then you have them all neatly organized in one place so you can reference them again for Thank You cards!

.:: Save the Date: Layouts ::.

If you are planning a destination wedding, during a Holiday weekend, or high traffic travel time; it has become more standard to send out Save the Dates. This pre-invitation officially announces your wedding date, and that your guests will be invited. I'm all about adding extra creativity to details. Its easy to find generic 'Save the date' Templets, but these are some super fun unique ones I'v found! REMEMBER! Send them out about six months prior! 

.: Invitations :.

Invitations. Its a project! You have to have all the information as to where you will be holding the ceremony and reception, times, and details for your out of town guests. And when do you send them? What if people don't send their RSVP and just show up? What if I invite one person and they have a +10? Check this site out. I found it can answer your horrific questions I know that are starting to make you feel overwhelmed.
