<p><strong>ERICA: </strong> We&#8217;re supposed to finish up our long debated, ever-ongoing discussion tonight over which save-the-date concept we are going with: the vintage Palm Springs postcards or the old school looking airline tickets.</p>
<p>I say "concept&#8221; as if this were a multi-million dollar ad campaign.  This is the state of insanity I've reached.  </p>
<p>The postcard idea is a fab one, if I do say so myself, and I love it because I haven&#8217;t seen it done much.  We have three gorgeous vintage hotel postcards that we&#8217;d use the images from on the front and would print information on the back of each.  So one would be travel Info, one would be the save-the-date itself and one would be all the extra information.  We&#8217;d put them all in a pretty little <a href="http://www.paper-source.com/cgi-bin/paper/envelopes/pocket_folder.html">folder </a>and mail them off.  It would totally convey the vibe of the old Hollywood, Palm Springs, girls by the pool sipping colorful drinks thing, which is what I love most about that era.  But Greg realllllly loves the airline ticket idea, and since we are doing destination it would be kinda cute to give a shout out to that aspect of the wedding.  I just worry that its too cute...borderline cutesy.</p>
<p>But unfortunately, I sense that by giving in to Greg, I will pass along twice as much satisfaction to him than I would have received by getting my way.</p>
<p>So airline tickets it is.  Little does he know that I already have a backup plan: use my vintage postcards for the welcome bags in the hotel rooms!</p>
