The minute your guest receive their invitation they are informed as to what type of event they are invited to. This is the opportunity to show off your style, make a statement, formal or informal, what ever you want to say, the invitation is where they begin to get that information.
Having said that, your guests can gather that information before they even open the envelope. A few years back Martha Stewart Weddings showed wedding invitations using
vintage stamps....
.... so I thought I would suggest using Black Heritage Stamps, to make a statement. African Americans have been placed on stamps since 1940, Booker T. Washington (10-cent). Black Heritage stamps are available via sites like
Ebay,
Etsy, and the company
Champion Stamp Company.
Ernest E Just Champion Stamps, sells vintage stamps, however you pay a higher price than the face value.
Black CinemaEbay, sellers (like moi) sell stamps at face value or a little more, but you can find some good deals. Although you can get into a bidding war with another buyer, some sellers post "
buy it now", which means you get the item. Search on Ebay, by using
Black Heritage Stamps,
Sheets, and/or by the subject (Mohamed Ali, Jackie Robinson, etc, I found searching this was a bit hard, but did find some stamps this way) .
Scott Joplin Etsy, has less choices, but
some non the less,
Vintage Stamps.
American Clock 10-centTo make up the postage difference, can be found at the
US Postal Shop.

I was introduced to
Feverish Gourmet Popsicles via the Today Show. Entrepreneur and owner Felecia Hatcher fell flat on her face while attempting to chase an ice cream truck in heels. Upon her decent to the ground she came up with the idea of a hip ice cream truck with upscale ice cream catering for adult events (she was on the ground for a long time).....
As you can see
Feverish is not only great for kids, but wonderful for summer/beach/garden weddings (
Wedding Gourmet Popsicle/Ice Cream). Flavors are unique (Mimosa W/Strawberries, Strawberry Mojito, and
more). You can also customize the popsicle stick, making it very personal. It's a cool, fun, favor that will leave your guest feeling refreshed.
