Beautiful Wedding Invitations Made Easy with Basic Invite

I get asked by my brides all the time where they can find wedding invitations online. I just recently had an experience with Basic Invites and I wanted to share it with you guys because they are seriously beautiful wedding invitations that you can order online. Ummmm, yes, please! I'm not just talking wedding invitations, either. You can order all of the enclosure cards to go along with them - which includes RSVP cards, direction cards, hotel arrangement cards, gift registry cards, ceremony info cards and even matching thank you cards, save the dates, menus, place cards, bridal shower invites and wedding programs. It's like a one stop shop in wedding stationary! Read all about the site below. SPOILER ALERT: if you get to the very bottom of this blog, then a little surprise is waiting for you!…

With Marcus and Anthony, I get both of these connections.

Of course it was nice to catch up with Marcus, but it also made me so happy that he found Anthony because they compliment each other so well!...
