Help Girls!! I am at my wits end with invites. Need your help!

I have searched and searched through so many invitations!! I can't find anything that I like. I need to make a decision by Monday. Would any of you be able to help me by posting pics of invites?
Here are the specifics: I want something traditional, but with a little edge. I don't like anything modern looking. I like the colors gold and chocolate. But I am flexible. I don't want to go over $3500 for 150 invites.
TIA

:) Hope this helps. She can also change them to be any colors.

Oh yeah, if you have the budget, use it. The invitation is the preview to the formality of the affair and if you are having a wedding at Oheka, you want people to know what that will be like.

We went with William Arthur invites:
The color Gold was incorporated throughout my wedding and I wanted a heavier cardstock than the standard invite.

She makes custom invites. She is so talented. She can do anything. I am currently working on engagement party invites with her. She has already emailed me 2 samples. Her prices are great for great quality.

I agree with some of the other posts...with a budget of $3500 for invitations you can basically can get whatever you want. Have them custom made.

Have you checked out Claudia Calhoun or Julie Holcomb- Julie can do claudia styles - Julie Holcomb does letterpress - you could get a chocolate brown lettering with hand edged gold foil (it is just a hint of color that is subtle but would be beautiful)
Check her out at Lion in the sun - ask Mary to bring out some samples that are NOT in the book that people have done.
Claudia Calhoun runs about 3-4K, Julie Holcomb ran me about 2k-2.5K They are printed on thick cardstock - the only other company that I found had thick paper like it was claudia calhoun - everyone else was rather thin quality. I can FM you my invite - but you won't get the real feel of it - mine was navy blue lettering with silver hand foiled edging it came out amazing I got a lot of compliments on them

Ours were ivory and gold and we've been getting many compliments on them. The bottom is actually a board - it does not bend. They are by Koza. Here are some photos although not the best -
