I've voted for #4... It's lovely, but I was torn between #2 and #4...
Is that the photo that will be inside the frame? Will it be a colour print?
Please feel free to tell me to mind my own business  but I was thinking they'd be lovely if the saturation was changed so they were sort of blue toned pictures... Do you know what I mean? Like B&W but with a blue tint...
ETA: something like this (but I only took 5mins with this so maybe not quite the same!)

Actually this photo is not showing up at all at the wedding. Its just part of the invitation because no one on either side of our families have seen us since we were kids. Its in color and I was only adding a border to make it fancy but so they can also cut the photo out if they want to. The guestbook table is getting a frame that holds 4 small pictures; a baby and a grown of each of us.
Feel free to add any suggestions and I'm pretty sure my brother can do tints on pictures and change the colors. I'll have to ask him to do one so I can see how it looks.

I think it's a lovely idea to include a photo with the invites

I like #2 the best.
FYI: #3 looks like a birthday party invitation to me.

I like #1 but I also like how Ann changed the color with that border. It's hard to pick!

It would help us to know what type of wedding you're going for (the invites set the tone for the whole event), but I like #2.

I chose #1. I am not sure why I like it best, but I think it is because the border design has more variation of light and dark tones, with the roses in the upper left corner.

It's semi-informal and everyone that is invited are family or family friends that we've known for a long time.

These are going underneath the actual invite which is on vellum, and then tied together with ribbon.
