Mrs. Cannon's Picture
Mrs. Cannon, Toledo, OH Age and Occupation: 27, Financial Analyst Fiance's Age and Occupation: 28, Assembler Engagement Date: February 28, 2011 Wedding Date: September 2011 Venue: Epworth UMC & Ward Pavilion About Me: I'm the curious combination of being a go-with-the-flow, laid back, obsessive planner. I try desperately to stay as busy as possible at all times (and am succeeding big time right now!) My biggest loves in life are Law & Order: SVU, Community (the show, not the concept, although I like that, too), ice cream, white cheddar popcorn, beer, hiking, knitting, decorating, writing, being outside, spending time with friends and family and musical theater. Mr. Cannon is pretty sweet, too. We've had a lot of fun traveling and having adventures all over the country, but have finally moved back near our hometown to settle down. We're planning a low-key, colorful, fun wedding and an awesome-to-the-max reception.

Wedding Invites, Take Two!

July 15th, 2011 @ 11:48 am by Mrs. Cannon

I was pretty anxious for Machine Gun to send me the new and improved wedding files. When I emailed her back to detail what I wanted, I requested something clean, modern and text focused, preferably with a white background and using our rainbow palette (which is bright pink, bright orange, dandelion yellow, Kelly green, turquoise, royal purple). She sent me exactly what I was looking for, and after a few minor adjustments, I had my invitation suite!

First, the invitation page itself:

Obviously, I blurred our last names and the date, so it doesn’t look as nice as it does in real life. But, I’m thrilled! She also did an R.S.V.P. card and info card. The R.S.V.P. card has corny choices because I always enjoy that:

And it has a coloring component on the back side so people can have fun with it:

There is also an info card giving addresses for people to GPS or Google Map or whatever:

So those are the files making up my invitations! They are going in a folder with some fancy additions, so I’ll be sure to show you guys the whole thing once I have one put together.

What do you think? Did you put your invitations in someone else’s hands?

I love the coloring pages on the back. I would be so excited as a guest to color that in and return it. These invites are fantastic. Can’t wait to see it all put together!

Thanks, everybody, I’m really pleased with them. We’re thinking about doing something with the colored RSVPs when we get them back- maybe a display at the reception?
