Party Foul: Bad Invitations

It's hard not to judge an event by it's invitation..oh wait, because people do.
Your invitation should be the preview to your event's color scheme, decor, & overall theme.
So basically they're important! Making a mistake on your invites can be a huge problem, especially when your guests notice.

Ask me how I know this.....
I spelled my own Father's name wrong on my wedding invites

( i know try not to cry for me, you can laugh though)

Here are a few tips to help with your invites:



1. Spell & Grammar Check


So you WERE engaged?
Guests may be officially confused. Must send a second announcement to clear up the first.
I've seen this annoucement countless times on the web, and everytime I do I cringe.
It's sad because it's such a darling idea!

 Mmmm I'll take the trout with a side of children.

Read it in your head, Read it aloud, AND have someone else read it, hopefully that will catch it.


2. Try Not to Make Guests Uncomfortable


Not all of us want to play a controversial game to see if we should come or not. 
Based on that some might not attend 


3. Be Yourselves


Just a simple thought not to confuse your guests.
We get you are super fans but you may regret this in the future.



Party On,
