Title: Invitations...
Post by: Foozball on July 17, 2009, 11:16:35 AM
DCS or anyone else - in your "archives" of heroturko do you have any OLD Wedding Invites? Either copies of them or templates?

(I get the BEST ideas when I'm changing chemistry!) :shocked: :tongue: :angel: :huh: :grin: :laugh: :rolleyes:

Next year is the In-Laws 40th wedding anniversary, and myself and my wife are planning to throw them a decent party! Actually my mother-in-law said it's a MUST, their original wedding day was rushed and they've always had something else to spend their money on. (Ironically, my wife and myself were both bi-products of shotgun weddings!)
So I'm going to "remake" their Formal Wedding Invites, as if they had them back then. And tell everyone their original got "lost in transit - Return to Sender"
A nice heavy stock for the invites, a slight weathered effect on the envelopes (vector vintage paper), and I'm even going to put the 1969 stamp on front with post mark and RTS stamping!

It's going to be my "September project" - but I thought I would ask about it now. :grin:

No, I sure do not. I try to discourage weddings at all cost. By keeping a supply of Invites, I would be encouraging the unholy unions that I so fight against. Sorry pal.

DCS, the breakdown of the traditional family and unmarried heathens procreating is the root cause of the doom facing the human race.

But you're right, weddings do suck. I'm lucky that I've still never been to one and hope I never will.

Feel that strongly about it do you? :laugh:

I could take it a step further and say, parents should EARN the right to be parents, not just pump them out for me the tax payer to accommodate. It's hard as shit to raise kids, and to let just anyone have them is absurd. If two people are going to procreate, they should have to take a test to see if they are mentally and physically prepared for child rearing. If not, sterilize the motherfuckers.

Wow, what G_Town said! :laugh:
I DID mention they have been married for 40 years now? That's 2081.5 weeks. Not to mention that they are actually HAPPY! (At times, I struggle to understand it too!) :huh:

(It's not a REAL wedding invite, just a remake for a tongue in cheek kind of joke!)

For DCS and Gnubler:

My thoughts? (Bear in mind I've had my head in a processor, too... :rolleyes: ). Knock one up yourself...oops, badly chosen words, in this case.   :embarrassed:

Plenty of images out there, and you have the tools...Was it the 60s?   But don't forget to leave the vintage weaponry from Brno off the front!   :laugh:

Hell, you could impose it in Dynastrip...   :laugh:    :laugh:

I'm getting divorced. Maybe someone can help with some invitation ideas for my dissolution party? I'm thinking toward the theme of "Free at last!"

Thank you for pointing out my African heritage - it just so happens I'm of the South African variety.

Could you claim to be "South-African-American" then?
if so...

She doesn't look too alarmed seeing as her dog is making a run for it and she'll never see it again.

Dissolution Party for the disillusioned party? Count me in! :cool:

Post by: gnubler on July 20, 2009, 02:33:19 PM
I'm too smart to be disillusioned. I just thought it would be fun to celebrate the dissolution of the illusion of happiness.
