On there now. My problem is the invite not so much but when you start adding the rsvp card, the direction card and all of that fun stuff it gets into the $400 or more range.

I agree! Etsy.com

There are so many people on the site that can accomodate your budget!

I find Etsy to be check out Michael's if your not opposed to DIY. Ang also got nice ones at Party City for a reasonable price. HTH!

Re: I HATE INVITATIONS

Invitations were probably my biggest headache, between the cost and going back and forth with what I wanted it was just the most annoying, I went with 'her'

it's slightly cheaper if you do an RSVP post card (plus you save on the stamps later on) ... and also, don't go for the double-envelopes for the actual invitation ....

sorry you're so fed up ...

I need 100 and my budget is $500 but I REFUSE to spend $5 on an invite that most poeple throw out so I am trying to stay between $200-$300. I am thinking of DIYing it but am so not creative. The invite itself usually not bad but once you throw in the RSVP, the direction card, the hotel info it gets pricey.

I'm using the BRIDES kits from Michael's and they're REALLY easy! They came out so nicely!

I'm going to Paper Presentations on Monday to see if I can get the materials to DIY mine. My quote from her was $700 so I'm thinking this is one area I can save some $$ in.

Re: I HATE INVITATIONS

i just posted my invites, i used cracked designs on etsy; you may want to look into her stuff. she cut us a deal bc we didnt need reception cards, but even if we did it was only $3 an invitation. we took one of her designs and changed the colors, she'll definitely be able to work with you. any info you want to know just FM me

I know how you feel - my least favorite part of wedding planning as been invites and anything to do with the guest list

I feel the same way ughh, wasted so much time browsing online. Try vponsale.com its about a dollar an invite with free shipping. More of a modern look, not sure if its what i am looking for.
