Save Time and Money


Last week I had the sweetest Mom come in Engaged, Ivette Steadman, for her daughter to get some ideas for invitations. After chatting for a while she gave me the best idea!!!

We talked about invitations for a long time and then I suggested where to buy thank you cards as well. All brides understand the great depth it takes to make sure you send a thank you note to each and every guest in a promptly manner. It's hard to try to get all of that together especially when you spend a week as a newly Mrs.!

Ivette had given her daughter the idea of personalizing a note to every guest that was going to attend the wedding. Since the reception is going to be a seated dinner, she could place a thank you note at each place setting. This way there is no postage, no worrying on the honeymoon about how many letters you need to write when you get back, and each guest will have a personalized "thank you" for spending this special day with you! Perfect!

This approach can save the bride-to-be much time and money!

*If you are not having a seated dinner, then you can get creative. Try having a table that will have in alphabetical order the letters along with their party favors! This way they will be attracted to the party favor gift and it will be easy for them to find their name and receive the thank you note*

Happy writing!
