Boat Anchor Invitation In A Bottle w/ Beach Umbrella

Set sail on your next celebration with our Boat Anchor Invitation In A Bottle w/ Beach Umbrella. These amazingly unique invitations are the perfect way to start your journey into matrimony together. The clear glass bottle comes filled with soft fine coral sand and natural seashells, and inside sits an ivory linen paper set on fine oil paper with a cedar leaf imprint carrying your message or event details. A genuine cork preserves the contents of their voyage, and a beautiful gold anchor is fastened to the top of each invitation, with a little beach umbrella to give the whole thing the full ocean flavor.
Let the fresh sea air fill the room when your guests open up these wonderful invitations. Get them in the mood for island adventures. The bottle stands 7"H x 1.75"D, so it has real weight in the hand, and the sand shifts when it is tilted. Guests do not skim an invitation like this; they turn it over, pull the cork, and unroll it slowly.
A personalized tag can carry names or a date on the outside, and a response card in one of nine styles carries your RSVP date and return name and address, so everything a guest needs travels in the same bottle. A map and directions card can go in as well when the venue is a stretch of beach rather than a street address. If you are mailing these glass bottles as an invitation, the white corrugated box makes sure they arrive at their destinations safely and securely.
These delightful and whimsical bottles are the perfect way to welcome your friends and family to any beach-themed event. Use them as place settings or as fun and fancy nautical accents to your party. Place them on the center table the next time you throw a luau or a Hawaiian-themed party. They work as thank you cards as well: send them to faraway relatives as an expression of your appreciation for all of their well wishes, and let your loved ones in colder climates relive the warm memories of your special day.
Add your bottle wording above, choose your quantity, and send an invitation that sits on a shelf long after the wedding is over.
