respondez s'il vous plait

Since we sent our invitations out a little over a week ago, we've had lots of mail!
Response cards in particular. 


You might not believe me when I tell you that this picture is how many response cards we've gotten back already, but this picture isn't lying!!

47 cards to be exact. 47 out of 150 sent.
And what's even harder for me to believe is that so far only 6 people can't come!
84 people {including Kurt and I}

What's been really fun is reading notes that people are leaving on the back of the cards for us.
{The bottom of the response card says, "Include a message of best wishes for the bride and groom on the back of this card."}

Things are starting to come together and get really exciting. I absolutely cannot wait to see all the people I haven't seen in awhile and share our wedding day with so many special people!

signed, sealed, and delivered {i hope!}

This is what our kitchen table looked like on Saturday afternoon


We picked up our envelopes from my mom's friend, our calligrapher, in the morning and I immediately began stuffing everything! My mom came over to help a little later and we finished with everything in a couple hours of work. 

I L.O.V.E how our invitations turned out and the calligraphy topped it all off! At the end of our afternoon, we were looking at this

{some of the calligraphy is blurred for privacy}

All 150 envelopes all ready to go!
Kurt and I put them in the mail Sunday night and they were to be picked up yesterday morning at 7:00am. 
I hope people start getting them today!!
I. Can't. Wait.

We are most excited to get our response cards back to see who is coming and what meals they are choosing to eat. We also have a part on the response cards asking people to write us a note. We're hoping to get some good ones back!

I'll show specifics some other time...
