Welcome to A2K!

He asked, and she said yes.
Or was it the other way around?
Whichever, doesn't matter:
Their soul mates have been found!

Better word-smiths should be along shortly!

i'd spell it coliseum

ditch your opening joke

delete the 'some more' and 'promptly'

use 2010

april fools day huh

say that the reception is in the building

and go buy a wedding invitation card and plagiarise it

No need to buy something to plagiarizer, just use Google to view samples.

I think it's 'colosseum' - better check the actual church's spelling.

I actually like Bills, Remember, its a wedding, sappy is good when we talk about weddings.
PS, why's everybody crying?

Congratulations and welcome ot A2K!

The invitation wording should match the formality of the wedding. From the way the wording sounds, it is a casual affair. Are you providing an additional insert which addresses the reception after?

You may want to find a specific site that provides assistance with wedding etiquette and formalities just to be on the safe side. http://www.etiquettehell.com/smf is one of my favs and has a ton of helpful people who will be sure it's done within accepted wedding contraints.

Good luck to you and your beloved!

Since there doesn't appear to actually be a church at that location (dental office and spa are there), I don't think we need to worry about the spelling.

I like oBill's take on the wording of the invite.




(and yes, there are Yonge Streets all over Ontario - some kinda General or something, need to ask Set about that)

That's not the actually address. I changed the names, location and address.

The actually wedding/reception will be going on in a banquet hall.

I like OBill's suggestion as well, the first part is too sappy for me (I'm the groom).

ha!

I've spent a far bit of time near that Yonge Street address, so it was quite a shock that I might have missed a church on the same floor as the dentist's office

The one thing I'd do is remove all of the exclamation points. Seems a bit too giddy to me. mebbe I'm just old and crusty

No need to be old and crusty; I famously use too many exclamation points!
