Yeay! Finally, I headed to the wedding card shop with my mom.
We went to the same shop that did my bro's wed card 7 years ago, and surprisingly, the shop still look the same!
I went thru the samples in the folders, saw some familiar names (even celebrities!)
So I placed aside some ideas that I felt I like, and started to discuss with my mom.
Colour- Well, knowing me, I love pink! But my mom felt that a wedding card will look nicer if it is in creme. So, the colour will be creme with some pink touches. Fonts will be in dark brown.
Doa- There were so many doa, from Surah Ar-Rum, to Doa Pengantin in various versions. My options were the shorter ones, tak nak panjang berjela sgt.. At the very last before leaving the shop, I saw a doa that was short but unique. So I picked that one.
Names- I've decided to put our full names instead of our nicknames. No initials.
Design- After going thru all the samples, we narrowed down to 2 designs..Will follow thru with envelopes & reply cards.
Well, there are a couple of things that I still need to think about..
1) The part where the parents wants to invite the guest..should it be "menjemput ke majlis perkahwinan..
a)anak kami.. "
b)anak perempuan kami.. "
c)puteri kami .."
Option a is common, option b is more appropriate for me, but mom disagree, option c mcm perasan la pulak.. hehe..
2) The part where they mention the bride & grooms name..should it be..
a)Mrs Bert dengan Mr Bert or
b)Mrs Bert dengan pilihan hatinya Mr Bert or
c)Mrs Bert & Mr Bert
Option a is so common, option b is sweet, but is it appropriate? option c is simple, but my mom don't agree, saying that it's too English to do so. (huh?)
The lady will have the 2 sample cards ready for viewing in a couple of weeks. Can't wait!
