Getting Back on Track

New invitation design! What do we think? It's much, much more me (and Jesse), because it's modern with a slight classic feel... I don't know, I just like it a lot more than the previous one I was trying on.

Also, I am trying to get my bridesmaids inspired and excited about shopping for their own dresses, since I'm the nicest bride ever and not choosing hideous dresses for them to wear once then throw away. Here are a few examples of dresses that they could certainly strut their stuff in down the aisle.

A nice print, perhaps a little short.
Very vintage. Great colors though.
Summery.
This one satisfies me in so many ways. It's kind of ridiculous.
This one is almost perfect. Slightly too informal, but perfect for a BBQ, which is what our wedding really is. Hell, dress it up with a great pair of heels and necklace and this bridesmaid will have captured my heart! Ooh! Or take off the tie (yes, it's removable), and add a different belt!
I think this is lovely, and depending on what the other 3 wear, one of my girls could definitely sport this.
This one also tickles me. I'm not digging the bow...or the hem...but I love the stripes and color combos. You know what, let's just take it apart and make a new dress with this fabric.
Of course they can choose something more "bridesmaid-y" if they want, but I am stressing the idea of buying something they will wear again. Even though I have a ton of dresses I've only worn once....it's a girl thing. What's wrong with us?!
