A lot of it depends on whether you want offset printing, thermography, engraving, letterpress, etc. (as well as the quality of paper). Do you know which kind of print method you're interested in?

My invites were letterpress and they were around $10-11 each, which is on the higher side but the plate used to make them was done by hand by my calligrapher so that added a bit to the cost.

Well for me I wanted couture invitations so I ended up paying around $1795 for 90 invitations.

It looks like I am going to be spending about $700, which seems to be somewhere in the middle range of what people spend.

Invitations can range from under $100 for 100 plain white folding invites with inner/out envelopes and 100 rsvps sets Such as these
to well over $20 per invite for something like this silk invitation box lined in suede and invite in what I think is hand calligraphy

There are tons of price points in between and like Jennie noted, it all depends on what you want.

Try these for startes

American Wedding - inexpensive

Now & Forever - some are $50 or less per 100 invites

Princess Wedding Invitations - discount invites 25% - 35% off retail

Rexcraft - order direct - free samples

Scrolls

The Dream Gardens custom invites

Me neither when I first started looking for invites! There are a lot of cool websites that will send you free samples. It's a good way to see the invite in person (because sometimes the quality isn't as good as it looks online) and also to figure out what kind of style you like Good luck!

Mine were Encore Invitations. They were $1300 for 100 invites and an extra $1.50 for the Calligraphy for the address (not the return) on the outside of the envelope.
