Had such a successful few days with wedding planning! Found flower girl dresses, ordered my jewelry, picked out tuxes, ordered our cake tasting, scheduled a hair/makeup trial, and PRINTED ALL MY INVITATIONS (so excited to get a huge DIY checked off and so happy with the product my mom got a kick out of my victory dance when I printed the last one, I'll post when they're assembled)!
Basically, I'm on a wedding planning high at the moment and had to share!!

@mrzsoontobejames If you feel you don't want to take this on, contact a local print shop, (Minuteman press etc) and they can do it for you!

Big Kudos to you about printing out your own invites. I know the feeling (I posted them in my album if you want to check them out) . What a relief and a great reason for a celebratory glass of wine or two Congrats on your productive couple of days.

Re: Checks, Checks and More Checks!
Hey! I have an HP Photosmart Inkjet printer. I used Cards & Pockets invitation set, and I had no issues at all printing. I would just recommend buying extra so that you have some room for trial and error when you're printing them. And just make sure you give the envelope a minute or two to dry before stacking them so they don't smudge. Out of the 125 I printed I only smudged 1 or 2.
All in all, so worth the cost savings in my opinion, but it is a project.

I know I really want them done lol. I decided that I didn't like any of the invite 'folders' online and I wanted to have them embossed and I have an embossing kit (a very unsophisticated one which takes a while per folder) so I am embossing and printing and assembling... very overwhelming lol but I can't wait for them to be done and I can breath hahaha

Thank you sooo much for the suggestions. I was able to print my envelopes invites successfully. I am very thrilled with the outcome. The cost savings are truly worth it.
