These lavender pocketfold DIY vertical, fold down and up pocketfolds are 5 by 7 with their cream made to fit envelopes. You may print your own text on cardstock and adhere it to the larger portion of the inside of the pocketfold. There is a pocket for your other cards: reception, response card or response postcard, and your direction card/map. We suggest you print the map and the directions on a two sided card for cost savings and convenience. You may print the text in any fonts you prefer ahead of time and cut and adhere with double stick tape. That is how we do it. I did NOT show a ribbon attached to a monogram cardstock but this is a popular way to close the little package of cards in the pocketfold. This order is an over-run I wish to sell for less than the wholesale value to recover some of my costs. 220 pocketfolds, 5 by 7 and 230 envelopes. Contact me: jlaughtonlilley@aol.com. 314-435-6722.
This is a very popular brand name you have most likely seen in many bridal magazines.
Cost: 275.00. Shipping approximately 22.00

10 tips on How to Create an Environmentally Correct Wedding
Due to greater awareness of how much weddings add to the threat of our energy resources and air and waste, brides who want to give eco-friendly weddings can make conservation choices for her wedding day and the environment.
(1) Choose to have a wedding outside during the day. (Less lights are used.)
(2) Choose a location with lots of ambience. Very few decorations are needed that will be tossed later. Saves on the budget too.
(3) Choose to use recycled paper for your wedding invitations. You may also combine several cards normally sent in a packet with one larger card for reception, map, and directions all one and printed on both sides. This also saves gas for guests not getting lost and driving around a bit to find locations, it also saves them the stress. Happy guests. Also, you may use one envelope and line it if you desire instead of two envelopes, outer, and inner.
(4) Ask guests to email their response to you, or send you a note simply by writing rsvp by email and also take responses by phone. (Another respond card and envelope saved, and postage too.) If this is too stressful to you, then, at least use a response postcard.
(5) You may choose to wear your mother's wedding gown.
(6) Select artificial flowers. The only real flowers (and they can be silk too) might be the bouquet you throw.
(7) Have your wedding locally. Guests who must fly to destinations outside of the country use lots of fuel not to mention the carbon dioxide.
(8) Give wedding favors made up as tree ornaments in a biodegradable cotton substance that contains wild flower seeds. Some brides give packets of seeds for each guest in a small biodegradable garden theme container.
(9) Buy real trees, like ficus, and other plants. You can use them in your new home after. They can be decorated with tiny lights, or a double sided satin bow in the wedding them color.
(10)If the flowers have to be real, choose what is in season in your area. Tons of money is spent on growing flowers in greenhouses for year round use. Ask friends to let you make selections from their garden and then, cut properly, and store properly to keep them fresh.

Hand Delivered, Hand Mailed, and Verbal Invitations
You might think this is a strange title to a blog on wedding invitations.
However, most recently, we heard of a situation where someone was invited to the wedding by the groom's family informally. Though the family continued to encourage attendance, the promised hand delivered invitation was never produced, and thus, no response card was provided for this friend of the family to note her willingness to attend or not.
Thinking that the wedding guest list had runneth over, along with the budget, the guest to be declined to comment and remind someone of their intentions for his presence, and decided to let it slide.
About a week before the wedding, the guest was reminded of the wedding, and asked if he was attending, and he had say, "No, I did not receive an invitation." The family member intended to hand it over, and despite frequent interchanges in person, the invitation never surfaced.
The guest to be had lost all enthusiasm for the event, and had even been asked to provide the use of a floral discount house for the bride and groom's use. Still, no invitation surfaced.
The guest in question found it necessary to explain to the disappointed family member of the wedding party that showing up at a wedding one is not invited to and expecting to find a place set for him was not exactly what he called the faux paus of the year he wished to commit.
The individual who was meant to deliver the invitation vis a vis another family member messed up.
The guest to be and the groom and his parents were all disappointed. The person who was to deliver the invitation by hand was also disapointed. The guest had lost interest in attending, not because he wanted to attend the reception, but he had looked forward to attending the ceremony.
While one can attend a wedding ceremony witho0ut an invitation being held in a church, it is simply not what any book on etiquette would approve of for formal appropriate wedding manners
Our advice to avoid hurt feelings, and disappoinments, don't rely on family members to hand out invitations to people you hope to have at your wedding. Go the extra mile and get the appropriate address and mail the invitation even if others have gone out ahead of it. At least, you can be assured that the person wish to attend gets the opportunity to accept or reject the invitation.
When in doubt, always, always, look up the address via www.whitepages.com and your other resources, so you know that everyone you intend to invite gets invited.
There are enough things to do to take care of your wedding without these kinds of slipups.
No hand delivering or verbal invitations. Do it the proper way.
Exceptions might include numerous overseas' invitations being mailed to one address and being distributed traditionally by family members, avoiding high postage costs and possibly lost mail due to the mail traveling thousands of miles.
