repost from '06- what do you think of these invites- all HONEST opinions welcome- I have a thick skin!!!
these are similar to the scroll invites I am thinking of doing. what would you think if you received one like this
cute and original or what kind of shindig IS this?
looking for all types of feedback. Thanks!

I'm honestly not sure what I would think. I know at the very least I would think "Wow, that's really different" but nothing more than that. I wouldn't think anything negative. I will say though, I'm just not sure I would go with something like that, but if you love them - GO FOR IT!!! It's your wedding!!

I did silk scroll invitations ( not the same as those) and got such great feedback on them!!! EVERYONE commented on how nice and classy and original they were!!

I think it's a very cool idea. I would just make sure that you are able to read the writing on that paper. We received a save the date from someone on natural type paper with flower petals and stuff in it and it was really difficult to read.

Honestly I LOVE them. They are super unique - which I think is great. Where are they from? If I received that I know I would say 'OMG, so cute. It is like a little scroll'

They are cute and they are definitely different.....not your everyday invitation
If money is no object.........and not an issue, and/or you would rather not splurge on anything else.......then ABSOLUTELY order them.

thanks for your input. I appreciate it. normally I wouldn't go for these right away either, but we are incorporating a Shakespearean theme into the wedding, since I am a huge fan of the Bard, and we happen to be getting married on his birth/death day (he was born and died on the same day) so I looked up some ideas about weddings in his time period and came up with these.
thanks to all of you for your input. please keep it coming!!!

Re: repost from '06- what do you think of these invites- all HONEST opinions welcome- I have a thick skin!!!
I really like them. I would think 1) that's original and 2) that it would be a fancy wedding.
I know that Backinneyork looked into getting them from some company in India and they came in the THE most gorgeous little boxes. The only question I had was where to put the RSVP card unless it could be folded or scrolled.
I think they're perfect for weddings at castles or mansions as well. Or mansion-esque type halls

In that case, definitely do the scroll theme.
BTW, I just came back from visiting his birthplace while on our honeymoon. I was in the room where he was born
