We had the same problem. I was actually getting nervous that I would have to settle for something I wasn't thrilled about. But eventually we found one that we both LOVED. Don't worry...you'll find one.

Re: why is it so hard to ?????????????

I ordered about 10 samples before I found the ones I loved. Check out exclusivelyweddings.com. You can order up to 3 or 4 samples at a time.

Re: why is it so hard to ?????????????

my honest advice is to stop ordering the samples online and go into a STORE that specializes in invitations.

you get to see them all right there, no guesswork wondering if the real invitation will match the picture on a website.

it will save you tons of time, and even if the price might be a few dollars more than what you'd pay online, you gain the benefit of someone's expertise to help guide you through the whole process.

Re: why is it so hard to ?????????????

It took me and my FH months to decide on an invite we both liked.. Eventually, you will see one that you just fall in love with!! Its really stressful in the moment but it will all work out!

Re: why is it so hard to ?????????????

it was a very hard decision. I've made invitations for many others occasions, but my own wedding i knew I didn't want the stress. Unfortunately every invite we like was a ridiculous amount of money and people just throw them out anyway.
I thought about ordering online but wanted to see things in person and be told, yes you can swap this ribbon, no you can't use this or that so i went to a store.
After months and months of indecision, we walked into this one store just to look and my FH saw this invite and his eyes lit up and I actually liked it too so we ordered, but of course they are a little more money than we planned on.

Re: why is it so hard to ?????????????

What I did was order paper and make them myself. Not only was it cheap they are originals. They might not be what others like but I like them. Also only cost $300 and thats with stamps, paper (came with 100envelopes, response card and envelopes, and reception card) and a new ink cartridge. Look into doing them yourself. Yes they take time but it can save lots of $.
