Question Is this eaisily read/readable?

It's gonna be sized 4x6. If you all got this in the mail could you read it easily!?!?! I think it is but I think that's because I know what it says I want the opinion of some peeps that would be seeing it for the first time!!!

I think it is, but if you are sending it to people that are older (i.e. the contemporaries of the people celebrating), it might be difficult to read.

could you use the display font for the main parts and then maybe a serif font (maybe Calisto or Garamond) for the details? i think it would break it up a bit and make it easier to read.

I would also combine some fonts like Celeste mentioned. Looks beautiful though!

This was my thought too. I think that font is lovely for the top part with anniversary announcement and the names but I don't know that it's as good a fit for the large blocks of text.

I totally agree with Celeste. Adobe Jenson and Caslon are also beautiful

What you can also do is have more contrast on some of the texts that you want people to read first (names, dates, etc). Maybe make it larger than the rest of the text or make them bolder?

What a fun way to celebrate, I'd sure want to be sent on a surprise getaway!
