Eva Longoria and Tony Parker's wedding invitations
http://x17online.com/celebrities//evas_big_day_save_the_date.php#comments
By clicking the link above you can view the invitations to Eva Longoria and Tony Parker's July wedding in France.
Those are the invitations that actress Eva Longoria and her fiancee NBA star Tony Parker are sending to their quests. They are to marry 7-7-07 because Tony is superstitious. It's obvious he chose the date.
Personally if I had a bank account like either one of them I would have chose a better wedding planner. They look like they came from the Dollar Store. What do you think? You can leave a comment by clicking the Comment button below.
