Dear less than 15 viewers of this blog,

Summer's here! and so are those dreadful wedding invites. For those of you who know me, I'm sure I've expressed my opinion on weddings to you. For those of you who are trying to know me, here it is: I hate them!

Don't get me wrong, I respect the values of a marriage. I respect what it stands for. However I hate the ceremonies that go along with it. AND I simply detest the new activities at the elaborate receptions. These include those plays full of witty inside jokes that only the bride, the groom and their collegiate friends understand; the ridiculous dances that simulate all the bollywood dance moves from the past year into a few minutes; and finally the emotional speeches that drown my spirits- only because I'm sitting there listening to them and imagining how many more I have go through in the next couple of hours/ years.

The wedding cards are nice though! One of them is a booklet (hard covered), velvet like cover with gold embroidery and drawings. The inside is colored parchment paper - rich earthy colors. Different colors for the different events. All the text is in golden cursive font!

-My wedding invite will be a facebook invite.

-The RSVP will be done on my blog.

-The registry will be with www.musiciansfriend.com.

Only because I hope hard copy invites will be obsolete by then. Better yet, I'll send out little USB flash drives as the wedding cards. They'll plug it in their laptop and the whole process will start. (I should patent that idea- please don't steal it!)

Relaxing for now,
nK
