invites update

tita rita, my stepdad's cousin of z&z faxed me her quotation yesterday for our invites. the quotation was for a job order consisting of one main invitation card, entourage card, reception card, map, inner and outer envelopes. the price she quoted was just one grand higher than that of QP's two-card, two-envelope package. although the print isn't embossed like that of QP's, i think that is fine with us. what's important for us is that it is cleanly done (meaning, no smears, etc). we also think that we shouldn't pay so much for the invitations since, after the wedding, it will serve no purpose anymore and people won't want to keep it anyway.

joseph and i have already decided on the layout of our invites. i will be making a sort of mock up invitation on board paper and have the printer copy the layout as is. as for the map to st james and the palms, we got a soft copy from tin of w@w (thanks tin! ΓΌ) but it is in ms visio format. will have to shop for the software so that i can open it and have it printed as well.

as for the fonts to be used, i think, for the body, we might be using any the following:

i'm posting this pretty early on a work day. well, actually ... i have no patients to treat this morning. they all cancelled! so i'll be reporting to the clinic a bit late today. it's okay i guess. at least i won't be feeling harassed later.
