Nothing to do

[Andi]

Ok I have been through my checklist and everything seems to be under control for now. Everything is booked and now there seems to be a bit of a void until things start being delivered. I am not happy with this void because it is giving me too much time and I am starting to wonder if my choices are correct. I keep seeing different colour schemes and prefering them to mine etc. Is this normal?

I think everyone goes through various themes, colours etc- its only natural! Trust your initial judgement and respect your individuality for your choices
As for having time on your hands if its that bad why not try a new hobby that could save you pennies on the big day- maybe make your own invitations or something?Youd be amazed how long these things can take! If you keep them neutral and dont fill in the insert you can always sell them on if you do change your mind!

i am not a creative person so I would not know where to start making my own invitations. what do u do?

First step is look around to see what style you like- then work out how they were made! Its not as tricky as it sounds, honest!
Once you sorted it out you need the nicknaks to assemble- thats where the craft shop or ebay come into it Our craft shop wanted 2.79 for 12 little flowers but ebay were doing bunches of 144 identical for 4.99!!!

I looked at embossing, engraving, flowers, stamping- you name it- but ended up simply printing out the details on the pc and making them the "front cover". I used a subtle peralesent light gold card and a rich golden/brown colour of swirly posh font. They look a million dollars and traditional with a twist
