Wording of Invites, please be my proof-readers!

No, we aren't getting married in a church. What type of phrase could replace that? "request the pleasure of your company?"

I was also thinking that I preferred two thousand and seventeen to not be capitalized, but I just wasn't sure.

I also feel like 5:30 in the evening sounds better

Very pretty invitations! There are different guides out there, but I usually defer to Emily Post.

A couple of comments:

1. Year should be "two thousand seventeen" (no and, not capitalized)

2. Emily Post advises leaving this off, but I see it included on most invitations. Evening begins at 6, so 5:30 is technically afternoon and wording is "half after five o'clock"

@Autumn - You use "request the pleasure of your company" when the wedding is not in a church.

I agree about capitalizing the year, I think it would look better in lower case.

Half past five o'clock in the evening is fine to me. Does evening start when the sun sets? That is a real question; I would like to know.

I know you mentioned that you are planning to change the size/formatting of your names, but some honest feedback: when I read your draft, I thought your name was Autumn Tuller and I wondered why you had left FH off of your invitations. Will the final version have first and last names? I assume your guests know who you are, so maybe they aren't necessary. But that would fit more with the formality of the rest of your invite, IMO.

@cabo thank you! I will make those changes!

@carousel yeah it'll include both first and last names of FH and myself! The formatting was just something I couldn't fix in their basic edit mode

I wouldnt capitalize the year and evening is fine for 5 but you could just have it say half past five o clock
