How do I word the reception card...

18 years ago

to indicate that ladies might want to bring comfortable shoes to change into and a wrap. My daughter's reception is being held outside, and we don't want anyone's heels sinking into the ground...

Thanks.

How about, "Outdoor reception following the ceremony." Or "Garden reception...." ?

maybe people will think "outdoor" means patio; you could try "reception on the lawn"?

What size squares? Or do you want a quarter page, like a 4 up postcard (4.25" x 5.5")? For the postcard you can get a template from MS Template Gallery at: http://search.officeupdate.microsoft.com/TemplateGallery/result.asp?qu=postcard One's that say they work with Avery 3263 and 8387 are 4up. For 4 equal Squares, well, word has a column function and a table function. One of those might do what you want. Or could you draw a square and put your text inside. Sorry I'm not more help, just don't like to use word. I could set up what you want in MS Publisher or PageMaker, no problem, but word is just too much work. You might want to tell which version of word you are using, as that may determine which features are available. Jill

I'd suggest trying 'architect'. Serioulsy; the others are right. I've seen any number of modern homes in Dwell that show areas that are 'set off' from another area (whether it be the living, or sleeping, or eating areas), and you get to it through a breezeway or a covered walkway or whatever, and any number of 'camp' pictures where there's a main lodge with the sleeping quarters in seperate cottages. But you have to be a lot more specific, because none of those are the general 'buy a set of plans for $800' sort of thing. Tell us more.

well you can go back to the previous version of firefox if you want to try that but first go to start, all programs, mozilla firefox and try running firefox in safe mode. See if the problem still occurs, it could be one of your add ons that is not working properly with the new version. And it may not be related at all to firefox update. You can also simply do a quick system restore to the date before this happened to get your settings back to how they were. I assume you mean you are using xp? System Restore

Performance Clause: "Owner" will pay "Builder" a premium of 5% of the final adjusted pool price as stated in "xyz" if the pool is built completely by "xyz". Owner will be responsible for 1% less of the final adjusted pool price as stated in 'xyz' for each whole week that the pool remains unfinished or "not" fully complete. For the purposes of this contract, complete shall mean the pool has passed final inspection by all governmental agencies, is completely full with water and "Owner" as received all deliverables including supplies as defined by the contract and "builder" shall be solely responsible for ensuring completness.

We are doing outdoors overlook the harbor. On the wedding invitation with the address we listed the name of the lawn. They should know from that.

Garden Reception to follow

Why is it necessary to indicate where the reception will be held other than the name and address of the facility? If the ceremony and reception are in the same location, then it should be sufficient to say "Reception following the ceremony."

The reception is being held in a different location than the wedding. The dinner is in my neighbor's garden and the dancing is in mine. We wanted the ladies to know that their heels might sink into the lawn. So we finally settled on Garden Reception.

I have absolutely ruined heels at outdoor occasions, especially groundbreaking dedications. The leather on the high heel is peeled back like a banana when the heel sinks into ground, especially if it is rough ground. So the hostess is being thoughtful with this addition to her invitations.
