Hope It’s Not Too Late!

December 7th, 2009 @ 4:54 pm by Mrs. Parfait

To ask you to Save the Date!

We finally sent out our Save the Dates! This morning! :) I would give a big “PHEW,” but there are actually a couple more addresses we need to track down. Oh, how I wish I could cross this off my To-Do list. It’s been on there forrrever.

As you know, we wanted to include a short poem to tell people, “Hey, I’m a magnet. Don’t throw me away!” Here’s what they’ll see when they open the envelope:

Hope It’s Not Too Late! :  wedding save the dates 11 1

And when they start to take out the magnet:

Hope It’s Not Too Late! :  wedding save the dates 2 2

The poem is on a strip of paper folded in half over the magnet. I wanted to use as little paper for it as possible without it getting lost in the envelope. The entire contents:

Hope It’s Not Too Late! :  wedding save the dates 3 3

And since we just couldn’t resist, we sent our favorite poem to our younger friends and relatives:

Hope It’s Not Too Late! :  wedding save the dates 4 4

Yippee! These are definitely late according to any wedding timeline we’ve seen, but I’m glad we still got to send them. Did you complete any projects way past the supposed “due date”?

What a smart idea to send out two different poems. I bet your friends will really enjoy reading the silly nom nom nom.
