Wedding invitations come in all shapes and sizes and this Over-it! post is all about your invites.  Listen up!

What are we over this week??  (Just realized it has been a while since our last over-it!, eek!)

Including where your registered in your invite! - NEVER do this!  Not only is it rude to assume that your guests will be getting you a gift it is tacky to tell them just where to go to get it.  That being said, it is completely OK to include this information in the invitation to your couples shower or bridal shower, on your wedding website and by using word of mouth.  And PLEASE NEVER EVER put on your invites that cash is requested!

Going OVERBOARD with details – I just adore those fabulous envelopement invites.  You know the ones that have a little more detail than the time and place.  One thing I have noticed is that some brides (and you know who you are go a touch overboard with the details.  It is fantastic to want to include everything for your guests, just don’t do it.  An invitation that sets the tone of your event is perfect.  No need to include details for out of town guests (like where to eat/shop/etc.), or the details of your bridal party.  Leave those details for the out of town gift bags and programs.

We are definitely over-it!  So what are you over?
