Yes dear, you are old but I love you. I think everyone realised from my intro that I was looking for something stylish.

We all get that all the humorous suggestion here are just for laughs. (He's American, you have to explain that stuff! ) I'll just be considering the serious suggestions - sorry PCXL Fan!

If anyone can incorporate both our ideals of style and romantic then it will be perfect.

Yes, yes and maybe... I am defiantely a girl (see Plot's avatar), we are definately getting married and, well, I do love some humour amongst all this seriousness so please continue to feel free to make funny suggestions as long as some of you try and help me really design this bloody invite.

I'll try and make some invites tonight to wind down after my exams
Thank you so very much for your offer of help.

I'll work on it... cos I've never been married before I don't have an instant design at hand! To give you a basic idea it is like a small greetings card, the front has a nice picture on it and the inside has the details of the wedding. I just need the picture for the front of the card and maybe a small hint of a design for the inside to link to the front?

The front usually has the names like 'David & Racheal' (which are our real names by the way) and I was thinking a nice stylish image of two people embracing. Maybe two people-like shapes entwined to cover the romantic angle. Sort of 1920s/1930s Hollywood feel about it with Blacks, Reds and maybe touches of Gold or Silver for a colour scheme. Red roses can be incorporated as 'Mr Slushy Pant' likes those.

Congrats to the both of ya Hope everything goes perfectly!
Well, I'm hoping they will both see this thread and see their names mentioned! If I have no useable suggestions I will attempt to grovel to them individually and appeal to their design egos!!

Well, no need to crash guys, you are all welcome to attend the evening party, suits and Cocktail Dresses (for TCoS) if you can make it to Plymouth England in late November! Err... maybe I should run that one past Plot to confirm though!

Nice to see that my name was brought up. Quite flattering. I need to design something to keep up with fadz. Well, now that I have an idea of what you like, I will mess around with Photoshop and see what I can whip up. I would need some really nice pics to work with. Preferably portraits or you two together and any other other thing that symbolizes you two and/or your love or how you two came to be with each other. Anything to work with really.

Oh thanks! My last cocktail dress tore. A respectable lady like myself should always have at least one cocktail dress to wear for special occasions. Good to know that I have a new one waiting for me in Plymouth.

I once saw a very original invitation. It was a DVD case. The cover was like the ones in romantic movies with lines about the movie and eveything and some funny things along the way. The thing is the cover had a picture of the couple getting married making it seem as if they are the main characters of that movie and the movie itself is about a story of love an inviting you to see how it ends.
In the inside they had a dvd with a video of them coupled with a slideshow. The booklet was the invitation itself.

Gotta see If I can find it and I'll show it to you guys.

Edit 2: @ Plotty, incase you people decide to go on an extended honeymoon (and you finalize india as your destination) then please be my guest.
I guess this was inevitable. We were just right for each other, so sooner or later, marriage was bound to come up I suppose. Not sure if we can make it to India though. Might have to get you to come over to the UK. Thanks for congrats too, man.

Like I said, I may not be as active as I've been in the past, but you guys can count on me always checking in from time to time. And GE will keep going as well.

Sounds good. Should be happening around November, provided all immigration issues are sorted out in time.
