Bridal Party Invitation In A Bottle*
Set the stage for a tropical celebration when you send the Bridal Party Invitation in a Bottle. The wording is printed on ivory linen paper set on a light pearlescent sheet, rolled up in scroll fashion and fastened with a gold ring. The scroll is slipped inside a beautiful glass bottle and nestled on a bed of soft coral beach sand scattered with miniature sea shells, and a miniature conch shell hangs delicately from the fully corked neck. It arrives looking like something that washed up rather than something that came out of an envelope.
These festive bottles are just the thing to give to the girls in your bridal party. Thank them for all of their efforts at your party by handing each of your friends one of these wonderful bottles, her own name curved across the glass. A card gets read once; a bottle with her name on it sits on her desk until the wedding and long past it.
Bridal Party Invitations in a Bottle do not have to be used for bridal parties. Take your child's next birthday party to the next level by using these adorable bottles as invitations to a treasure themed event. Give each child one of these bottles complete with a map and let them explore the wonders of a splendid scavenger hunt. If you are planning a beach party or luau, place several of these bottles around each table and allow your guests to really get into that island oasis mood.
Everything the invitation needs travels inside the glass. The message scroll carries your full wording, a response card carries your RSVP date along with your return name and address, and a map and directions card gets everyone to the right stretch of sand at the right hour. A white corrugated mailing box keeps each bottle safe on its journey to your friends, and a printed tag ties the whole thing to the person receiving it.
The bottle itself is personalized in-house by HansonEllis, in business since 1999, on two lines of up to 24 characters each, and the tag takes two lines of up to 18. Two names, a date, or a line only she will understand.
Add your wording above, choose your quantity, and let the invitation feel the way the wedding will.

Care and use
- The bottle is glass and arrives fully corked, so post it inside the white corrugated mailing box rather than loose in an envelope.
- Keep the cork in place until the invitation is opened; the coral beach sand, miniature sea shells and conch shell sit loose inside the bottle.
- Bottle personalization is limited to two lines of 24 characters, so long full names or long venue names may need shortening before you order.

Which one should I choose
The real choice is between an invitation that gets read and recycled and one that becomes an object on a shelf.
| Bridal Party Invitation in a Bottle | Choose it when the wedding has a beach, island or tropical theme and you want guests holding sand, shells and a corked bottle when they open it. |
|---|---|
| A printed card invitation suite | Choose that when you are inviting a large formal guest list and postage, matching envelopes and a traditional look matter more than the theme. |
| A printed tag favor or place card | Choose that when guests are already coming and you only need something small waiting at each seat on the day. |
If you want the invitation to do the work of setting the scene, the bottle does it before a single word is read.
