I just got my invite to our rehearsal dinner and party. Mr Corn's mom asked me months ago to help her design an invitation for the rehearsal party so we arranged to go to Archiver's, a scrapbooking store in St. Louis, while we were there for the Frozen Four Hockey Tournament in April. Of course, we only knew the store existed because we had seen it at the Frozen Four Hockey Tournament in Columbus, Ohio three years ago...talk about planning ahead!!
Note: Archiver's is an interesting store; I was surprised, considering the natural progression of the scrapbooking phenomenon towards paper goods and invitation DIYing that the store had nary an invitation idea or even an envelope for that matter in the house. That said, good for them for keeping their focus on scrapbooking in this world where there is an overpriced paper specialist on every corner. Who am I kidding? There could NEVER be too many paper specialty stores. Booo Archiver's!!
Ok...sorry about that...my rant is over.
Anywho...While at Archiver's my future MIL and I picked out some paper and created a basic design concept and then she hired someone to make them for her. Here is the final product. All of our guests received the large invitation and then anyone who is in the wedding and their families also received the insert telling them about the rehearsal dinner immediately after the rehearsal but prior to the party.
The best part about these is that I didn't have to make them :)
