Help me pick an invite

the first is the one that I have been eyeing since we got engaged- sold on eBay & the seller wont send me a sample- it didnt copy that great but its a shimmery cream color

second is one that I found recently- the quality is good and the price is excellent.

my colors are burgundy & gold

No problem. It looks simpler and to me more elegant.

I like the second one better.

But just a word of advice. Do NOT order your invites w/o getting a physical sample first. Even if you have to pay for the sample. I fell in love with soooo many invites online but when I got the actual samples they were crap. Even the ones I had to pay for...I'm glad i shelled out the $3 bucks per sample or whatever it was, because if I had not and ordered them I would have been so upset when they finally came.

I would say that if she's not even responding to your offer to give her money for a sample it's not a good sign. That might be a little bit of foreshadowing of what's to come.....

ETA: You also have PLENTY of time....if you're not sure yet, don't settle and keep looking.

I would definitely stay away then...sounds fishy. I really love the second one, though!
