So did anyone else find it impossible to pick out a style of invitation? I like a lot if them but i can say i love them, there is a part of me that feels like i should just pick the least expensive so at least i have a reason, lol. I'm tired of looking, and there is another part of me that think that i should just make my own since i enjoy these things, but i also dont what to have a fight with the printer, hmm. Can anyone recommend affordable invitation web sites, thanks girls.

Re: Invitation stress- Grrrr
picking out invites was pretty much the worst part of all the planning. i wanted something simple and traditional, but with a twist. ugh. it was so much harder than i could have ever anticipated. that said, i kept looking and found the perfect invite for me. don't go with the cheapest just to get it over with. find something you love - it's out there, i promise! GL!

Picking invites was definetly a little on the stressful side. My best advice would be to make a list of what it is your looking for in an invite.
For example:
What color invitation do you want?
Do you want it to have certain embellishments (i.e. bows, crystals, etc.)?
Do you want it to be a themed invite (are you doing seashells, fall theme, polka dots, etc.)?
Do you want pocket fold, layered, or traditional invitions?
I think if you make a list of what you want, it will be a lot easier. Good luck.
By the way I ordered my invites from www.myjeanm.com.

OMG Yes! I looked at THOUSANDS of invitations before we settled on the one we chose. To make matters worse once I'd found one I really loved and they discontinued it and I had to start from scratch! But it was a blessing in disguise b/c after more searching I found ones that were even nicer. More expensive (LOL), but nicer. Keep looking and you'll find it. Also MAKE SURE you get samples of anything you see online. What you see and how it looks in person are two very different things. I wound up getting mine through Samantha at the Watermill Catering hall. We met her at a bridal showcase they had there. She has an office at the Watermill and is the in house event planner and also does invites. You don't need to be getting married there either to get invites through her so go see her. She has a great selection. Also good wedding invites and look at all the sites. Also, Costco has an amazing selection of THOUSANDS of invites for a great price.

Re: Invitation stress- Grrrr
When I started to look at invites I said to myself Iam not going to drive myself crazy because I was sick of wedding stuff
I went to one store that had a bunch of books, and said right away I want to spend a total of $600 for my invites what do you have she showed me the book I saw three invites, I had my sister, and two BM give their opinions on which one they like better. Then I searched online and found a site that gives 40% off

For me the worse process was picking the wording, font, and color. They give you so much to choose from and it was so annoying
I just ordered my invites and I am so happy that it is over with!!
