I'm lucky to have a little downtime from work 2 days before August 11. It's been a crazy restday trying to get our save-the-dates done before this date. Tomorrow is our 2nd year anniversary as a couple and what better way to celebrate this day than to announce to our friends and family that yippee yey! we are tying the knot! (Hahah..We didnt really keep it a secret but i just thought it'll be more meaningful if we celebrate the date by sending our save-the-dates.)
The details-obsessed that I am wants to make sure that our guests will have a gleam of our vintage-themed wedding through these STD's so we're sending them a telegram and a 1920's circa save-the-date.
Here are a few snaps of what our guests will be receiving tomorrow:
brown envelopes, sticker paper, stamp and stampad, specialty paper and sticker paper (all from National Bookstore)
The original plan is to just stamp the brown envelopes with "CONFIDENTIAL" or "URGENT" because I thought printing on envelopes will give me a headache. To my surprise though I got it right! I used the design of our calendar sticker. Here it is:
Our WU telegram. I forgot the website where I got this from. The instructions says we need to print the header and use a typewriter to put our message. I don't know where to find typewriters these days so with the power of print screen I converted it to Word and used an Old Typewriter font for the text. 
calendar stickers
planner stickers
tada..our telegram ready for folding :)
Here's the STD we'll send through email. We didn't have the time to schedule a studio prenup with our photographer so I just asked h2b to bring a coat and we'll try our best to morph into a 1920's couple. Pictures were taken at my place an hour ago. It's DIY all the way..including styling :)
Cheers! To 2 years and beyond!
