If we were having a larger party, I wouldn't have a request like this. But because my family loves me and knows I'm crazy, I think they'll think it's fun! I polled a couple of them and they thought it was super cute. Especially for pictures. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014298 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 19:17:14 +0000 ElbieKay 2014298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can you skip the request? Personally, I don't have anything that would qualify, and I have very little time to shop. So an invitation like they would make me feel uncomfortable. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014297 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 19:16:10 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2014297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: @HabesBabe: Thank you! I definitely don't want the wording to be confusing! "indulge" and "attempt" are great words to use. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014233 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 18:11:52 +0000 HabesBabe 2014233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Greentea: I think this is the best-- straightforward requests are good when you are asking guests to dress a certain way (e.g. "black tie preferred, beach casual, white party," etc.). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014197 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 17:36:51 +0000 Greentea 2014197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Honestly mine would be like this:</p> <p>It's a Valentine theme! Please indulge us by attempting to wear red, white, or pink! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014154 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 17:08:22 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2014154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@ellewoods84: Thats what it says on the rest of my invite! haha. But instead of valentine, it says sweetheart. </p> <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: I can't add any other graphics to the invite (I'm doing paperless post), but I really like your two options! Especially the full of heart one. Thank you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014139 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 16:58:56 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2014139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What about a caption and then adding the preferred color palette in dots on the bottom like a paint swatch?</p> <p>From head to toe please tickle yourself in pink and shades of red</p> <p>Whether blush, poppy, magenta or crimson, sport a hue that is as full of heart as you! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014130 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 16:51:55 +0000 ellewoods84 2014130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>The first thing that popped into my mind is something like.....It would be totally sweet if you could wear red, white, or pink.<br /> Edited to add...I just googled and saw this cute invite that said: she's cute, she's sweet, she's so much fun. Our little valentine is turning one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/need-help-wording-this#post-2014119 Wed, 07 Jan 2015 16:48:36 +0000 abbydabbydoodlebug 2014119@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm about to send out my DD's first birthday invites and I'm not sure how to word this in a cute way. It's a sweetheart/valentine theme and I would like everyone to wear red, white, or pink. I'm totally drawing a blank and my DH is no help! </p>
