Stamp Dilemma Resolved

I took all of your comments under advisement for the stamp dilemma. After careful consideration, we decided to go with the custom stamps from Zazzle.com, and we picked the Wordle ones (mockup on right)! It was a tough call but after talking to my FMIL about it, I feel really good about my decision. She thought the idea of the Wordle was so unique and agreed with me that it would distract from my handwritten addressing. I just felt that I'd already cut more corners than I would have liked - no inner envelope and no calligraphy. (I'm surprisingly bummed about the calligraphy actually).

Anyway, we wanted to do something special because the invites totally set the tone for the main event. We want to show our guests how much attention to detail we have (read: Meaghan notices the little details and hopes others do too).

Soo... I ordered them and waited patiently for them to arrive. I shipped them 2-day air because I didn't want any waiting mishaps (like with the paper for the accommodation inserts). They arrived late last week (before the paper btw) and much to my disappointment the background turned out lavender NOT light blue! I initially thought that this was my mistake but after comparing the mockup to the final product, Erik and I have determined it was not. Zazzle will be getting a friendly phone call from me tomorrow. Although the stamps were not insanely expensive, I would really like them to match. I'll let you know that that phone call goes.

Also, we decided we liked the wordle so much we are going to use it on our programs but one thing at a time.
