"Your wedding is not a photo shoot."

invitations, save the dates and paper products of all kinds

Since Mike and I have lots of friends in LA (we both used to live there) we are getting married next September - plenty of time for them to look for flights and get time off - we're not accepting any accuses other than family emergencies or poverty for lack of attendance. With said time to prepare we also want to notify everyone super early - meaning that one of the things on the top of my to-do list is to make the Save the Dates (as i recently told my friend Sue I can't use the STD abbreviation without giggling.)

This is where i suspect i will tell myself publicly and repeatedly to chill out.
