Mrs. Caterpillar, New York/CA Age and Occupation in 06: 28, Corporate Attorney to be Fiance's Age and Occupation: 29, Musician Engagement Date: March 9, 2006 Wedding Date: September, 2006 Venue: Rooster Point About Me: I don't like Jeff Koons, mushy corn, or the unnecessary diacritical marks the New Yorker adds to words like cooperative. Also, I'm an obsessive compulsive when it comes to crafts. And not just the ordinary kind of obsessive compulsive who needs to have everything even and aligned. No. I've gilded the heads of pins to make sure they looked properly antique. Gilded them. Then coated them in german glass glitter. I am that crazy.

Just Right

I cannot for the life of me figure out what wording to use on the invitations. Mr. Caterpillar and I have decided to go a somewhat non-traditional route, and consequently have no guidance for what to actually put on the invitations that will get people to come. And the response cards? Even worse. If your invitation is relatively informal, how exactly do you stick in a “The Favour of Your Reply Is Requested Before —” ? And what’s with the extra u? It’s like weddings make people British.
