For those of who are NOT making your own placecards

Where are you getting them and about how much do they cost??

My hall provides them. Are you sure your hall doesn't?

I've seen them really cheaply on oriental trading or you could probably get them on e-bay

My hall does provide them but I don't like them so I wanted to get them made.

Any ideas???

I bought very pretty blank placecards that are shimmery from Paper Access. It is an Italian paper called Stardream. I am then having my calligrapher write them out. She said she only needs one day to complete them.

i got mine done by inkspun.com. i e-mailed my order late thurs. night and received them in the mail yesterday. they came out great and i didn't have to do a thing. they cost $.39 a card- this includes the printing and the card. i first had him send me samples and then went from there. i would highly recommend them. i too hated the cards the hall gave me, plus i would have to write them all in!

teach2be- i didn't take pictures of them. to be honest, i'm not quite sure how to post them. i'll try but it may not do it justice. when i called and asked him to send me samples (free of charge, no obligation) i asked him to send me 2; one in white and one in ivory, one with Mr. & Mrs.... and one with Bert & Jean...., and each one in a different font. it really helped me make my choices. i was initially nervous as to the paper stock but everything was fine.
