It’s frustrating 😬 to open a wedding invitation only to be redirected to a loose-leaf insert that falls on the ground the minute you open the envelope. Relieved, she brushed some dust off of it, filled it out, realized she needed an envelope, ran to the store, picked up a few small envelopes and stamps and sent the card back with her response enclosed. She picked it up and realized it was the RSVP card. After searching for upwards of 45 minutes 🙃, she leaned back in her desk chair and noticed something on the ground under the desk. She started searching through her house, shuffling through papers and drawers, completely baffled as to where the RSVP card could be. She didn’t remember seeing one, now that she was thinking about it. She put the invitation back on the fridge and paused for a moment as she realized that she didn’t know where the RSVP card was. 🍀 Luckily, there was still about a week before the deadline. She read the RSVP date on the invite and realized she had never sent her response in. Two weeks later, she had finally figured out her schedule and began making arrangements to attend the wedding. She continued reading the invitation, and stuck it to the fridge with a magnet. She opened the envelope, pulled the invite out, and didn’t notice the RSVP card flutter to the ground. She squealed with excitement😁, as she loved this couple and could not wait to be part of their special day. Jessica recently received a wedding invitation to one of her friend’s weddings 💍.
