Hello

I'm thinking of including some form of cheeky poem in my 'save the date' card, but not sure if it is a bit naff...

Something like

Pineapple are yellow
Sometimes they are pink

Etc

See you on our special day
Just rock up in your flats
We haven't got a wedding list
Cos we're not cheeky twats 👌

Love this!

Well, firstly, it's not "an invite", it's "an invitation". Secondly, your guests will judge you for any kind of poem - totally cringe.
Most elegant would be a plain, engraved (black script on white card) invitation just with the basic facts of the date, time and venue. Keep it simple and classic.

Hmmm, genetically modified. 👀

@Hbh17 are you also taking elocution lessons?

Does anyone else not understand this at all? Why a poem about pineapples on a wedding invitation? Or do I need a glass of Wine?

I have no idea either @clary

I suspect the reason not many have said it is naff, is because we are still waiting for you to explain what you are talking about.

As a starting point, putting a poem on a Save the Date card does sound like it is going to be naff, but it might be that you are going to explain yourself at some point.

Have you been on the cheeky pineapple daiquiris @rockingthekasbah ?
