I have a Wedding Shower scheduled for June 5 however there is a twist to this. When the mother of the groom first called me last week I thought it was going to be a traditional wedding shower however in our conversation today it is going to be in "honor" of the son and d-i-l to be and the guests are going to be buying for themselves and the son & dil will be getting the specials and host benefits. I am sending the invites. Should I still use the PC invites :confused: or do some of you GREAT writers out there have a special invite I might be able to use. :D Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Wow that is a toughie.

You could use the regular invites but I'd only do that if the bride & groom have a wishlist of PC products that you can share.

Otherwise I'd do something specific. Below are thoughts off the top of my head so please rewrite so that it makes sense:

Please join us to celebrate the upcoming wedding of x & y. This will be an unusual bride/groom shower. At this shower you buy great kitchen and entertiaining products for yourself and the bridge and groom get a shopping spree of the free product value and specials for pampered chef hosts in the month of ...

I'll be showing x & y how to make "food" using pampered chef products.

Date:
Time:
Location:
RSVP:
Check out products in advance or if you can't attend shop online for their shower at website and put x in as host name of section 1.
 
PC makes some great wedding shower invitations - on the supply order. 25 for $5.

Thanks Tasha for the words. I think I can put it together now. Beth, I bought the ones on the supply order before I knew the guests weren't going to be buying for the bride and groom and I didn't think they would work. Thanks for the support.
 
Post your invite when you have it done. I'm sure many of us will be in a similar situation.
