Nice Package!

June 5th, 2010 @ 1:20 pm by Mrs. Sunrise

No, not that kind of package… get your heads out of the gutter. I meant this kind!

I love getting packages! I rip into them like it’s Christmas morning. This little box was waiting for me when I got home from work one day. Hmm, I wonder what could be inside?

Ahh, our lovely photo-sharing cards!

I am so thrilled with the way they turned out. The quality is magnificent and each one is perfectly bright and glossy. I knew Uprinting was good, but they really surpassed my expectations.

And this is how we will display them at the wedding. Our favor boxes will be doing double-duty as each card is securely tucked onto the top part. We will put one at each place setting to make sure everyone gets one. I will also put some in a basket by the guestbook table since we have so many extras… you know, just in case someone “needs” another one. :)

We never had this in mind when purchasing the favor boxes or the photo-sharing cards but I’m beyond happy that it worked out so well. And the colors match perfectly! I could’ve lied and told you that we had this planned all along, but it was a total surprise to us. I love it when things just fit into place. Don’t you?

Is anything on your tables doing double duty?

That’s amazing to me!!! I have a thing with colors matching and coordinating so seeing your wedding come together with such cohesiveness makes me smile! Where did your friend find those awesome flower boxes by the way?

Miss Sunrise,

I’m confused! Did you guys get Uprinting to make the character of you guys?? I have seen other people on WeddingBee have a character of themselves too and I’m desperate to have that for our photo cards! Please let me know.

Appreciated ;)

What a great idea -tucking the cards in your favor boxes. I can’t get over how cute Sewing’s rendering of the 2 of you is!
