I've got 2 bridal showers this month. I'm using the attached template to print the info on my PC Bridal Invites.

Should I include a blurb on the invite for anyone who can't attend to place an order with the hosts? If so, where and how do you word it on these invites? Or should I include a card? If so, anybody have a cute one? fyi.....We didn't want to use the registry just yet - want to save that for any additional orders after we close the shower. So I wasn't planning to include a registry card.

Also, does anyone have a Bridal OOF? I've seen the one on here and it's not exactly what I want. I can update and adjust it, but thought I'd ask ya'll first.

Thanks so much!

I don't have a bridal shower invite to see how it's set up. Is there space UNDER all of the printed info that you could add something like:

Not able to attend? You can place an order for youself or the bride at <blahblahwebsite address> under the host name Jane Smith
 
Or, if you only want them to purchase items from the brides wish list you could print something like:

Not able to attend? Contact me at <phone number and email address> and I can help you pick out something off of the bride's wish list. Don't forget...you can order something for yourself too!

Thanks Kelly. I do want something like that, I just don't know where on the invite to put it. There's not a whole lot of extra space and I don't want it to look too crowded.
 
Sorry :blushing: Guess you need someone who has the invite in front of them, huh? LOL
