Real STDs

A few weeks ago, I talked about Save the Date magnets. Since some of our guests are aware of my blog, I didn't reveal what ours specifically looked like. Now that they've been delivered, I can share with you without spoiling the surprise. This is a copy of the proof we received via email. Initially, we didn't order a proof (yes, it was risky, but we proofread and proofread and proofread again before submitting our order). Because of the size of the artwork, they had to rearrange the line breaks, and sent us a proof -free of charge- before printing them. So, without further ado, our STD:

At first, Jakob was dead set against sending out Save the Dates - he saw it as an unnecessary expense. You can imagine my surprise when I came home from work one day and he called me over to look at "what he'd found". Apparently, he had done some research into why STDs are typically sent out, and once he discovered the benefits for people planning a destination wedding, he was sold. Although technically it won't be a DW for us, it is for 95% of our guests, who will be flying in from Louisiana.
So after deciding STDs were a good idea, he used my good friend Google to find some options. His favorite was Favors You Keep, home of all the cute cartoon magnets options I showed you before. To encourage his participation in the process, he got to pick out the design while we decided on the colors together. His input is very important to me - I fully intend on using an extra hand for writing thank you notes later! I fear I may have created a monster since now, he has become VERY involved!
