..until our invitations need to be mailed.

All of the invitations have been printed, and the envelopes addressed. However, they are not quite ready for take off. Why is that, you ask? Because I can’t choose between two belly bands.

I like A, but I’m obsessed with bows right now.

I like both, but I chose A because I feel like the monogram of B doesn’t really flow with the ribbon because they are two different color whites.

I like A… but will the bow get squashed in the envelope?

I like B better but I hate bows. Also if this is a factor you may end up paying higher postage with the bow because of the thickness. You can’t go wrong either way.

My vote is definitely for B. When I first started brainstorming my own invitations, I wanted a ribbon and bow. But, like @chocochip, I worried about the bow getting squished. A squished bow is just NOT pretty.

I am going through the same dilemma, so thanks for posting I vote B - I love it (& may steal the idea!)!

I voted B. I think it’s more original than a bow.

I pick B - Because it will look much nicer when it comes out of the envelope and not all smooshed!

I like A better aesthetically but I think you should go with B because it is flat. If your envelope has a prominent bump in it they will probably charge you extra postage for it. This post discussed the topic a few months ago: http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/extra-postage-for-bumps-in-envelope

I like the whole initial look so I vote for b. But just a suggestion, I would say to put it on top of another cardstock in another color just to give it a framed look. I think that would add a nice touch. But that’s just me.

A is gorgeous and classy! I think B is overwhelming with the vellum. Your beautiful invitation doesn’t need any more adornment - simplicity is best in this case!
