As soon as I saw the part about "$400 for 25" I started mentally composing a witty comment which was going to lead with the phrase "welcome to the Wedding-Industrial Complex".  Then I saw you'd already used it.

I should send you a scan of teh Y's wedding invites; they were hand-drawn by the bride herself and then digitally printed...I believe they did all the envelope-stuffing, ribbon-tying, wax-sealing stuff themselves as well.  I doubt they cost even $200 to produce, all told, although it was time-consuming.  Anyway...best.  Invites.  Evar.

You can tell WG, for all she cares, that I, riceowlguy, Your Satrapic Majesty's personally-appointed Ambassador to Seward's Purchase, think that her friends and relatives will understand that you'd rather have boring invites and not be starting your married lives together $25k in the hole, and that if there are some who don't understand that, fuck 'em.  Hell, just E-MAIL people invitations to the wedding.  If somebody sends me a nice invite all I'm going to do is stick the date in Google Calendar and look the address up on Google Maps, then throw it away (or stick in a box with the other stuff I feel morally obligated to keep around and never look at again).



Funny you should mention that... by atreides (2.00 / 0) #3 Thu Jan 10, 2008 at 06:20:24 PM EST

We've been using one of those online planners to help us out and she wants for people to be able to RSVP online.  Looks like that's going to be an option, especially since the site went live today.  But you'll find out more details when invites are sent out...

He sails from world to world in a flying tomb, serving gods who eat hope.
