Finally decided on our invitation card design and content! Here's a sample of the card. Luckily we only have 10 tables and since the bulk of our guests are close friends, most of them have reverted on their availability =)
2 invaluable lessons learnt from the invitation cards though..
1) expensive hotel get their cards from expensive suppliers;
The shop that supplied cards to Fullerton is located at Palai Renaissance.. obviously expensive! And since the hotel only provide 60% of the cards plus we have to pay for the so called "high-class" printing, the invites cost us quite a bit. Arrgghh..
2) always consult parents on invites since it's a face thing to them
Initially I had wanted to keep the invites simple since it's solely for friends. Thought we could do without the chinese invites and parents' names =P Ended up my parents were upset becos no acknowledgement were given to them.. After giving me the cold shoulder for a few days, we decided to give in to them. Obviously they became very happie liao and well it didn't take too much effort for us to compromise.. So luckily we made the change. =) Was so touched today when my usually stony Daddy actually said he can't bear to marry me off.. so sweet!
