Re: Invitation Help
I looked online, ordered samples, etc and ultimately we ended up going to Party City and Hallmark to look at actual books. But we ordered them from someone online and got a significant savings for the same invites.

mine was the opposite... i found the invites i saw in party city online and they were almost 100 more... and i couldnt customize them as much...

I ordered ours from ******** Paperie, and have been satisfied so far. She custom makes them to your exact style (color, design, wording, crystals, ribbons).. def recommend her

You can do DIY ones and buy the sets at Michael's!!! I did this it was $90 for 150 , take a look in my album at them!!!! Costco also sells them online for half the price!!!!!

Although DIY would save some money - I'm starting my first job as an attorney in a couple of weeks and don't anticipate having much time to work on invitations on top of all the other stuff I still have left to do for the wedding - that is a great price though, thanks anyway =)

Oh, please don't get me wrong. In hindsight, I would have done it totally different. I hate my invites. Well, I don't hate them, they just are not what I wanted. I wish that I had spent a little more time on them and I wish that I had gone to an actual store. But c'est la vie. There's only 5 months between the engagement and the wedding date, so I did not have the time to dilly dally and we were having a hard time agreeing on anything close to the same design. So, this was tolerable to both of us and not a fortune.

i was just mentioning it because it does make sence to check both... i assumed that it would have been cheaper online... but it wasnt.

Re: Invitation Help
We used Vistaprint, I designed my own but there are a bunch of great designs and there are always sales going on. We got ours done for less than $1a person (before postage)
