Invitations

Hi Ladies!!

Has anyone started looking at invitations? I've started to look around and I feel like they are REALLY expensive. The average cost for an invitation card, with response card and envelope etc. is approx. 6.50 per card. Does this sound right to you? I really don't want to spend a lot on invitations. I feel like people won't keep them and I would rather use the money towards something else.

That sounds about right. Mine were nearly $10 each, but I added an accommodation card, a pocket and 4 crystals.

That sounds right for custom invites. Mine are around $9 each.

Thank you ladies. It sounds like what I've seen is common pricing.

Yea mine were around there too. You could go the non-custom route or DIY to save money.

WOW - for some reason I was under the impression invitations weren't this much. Looks like I'm in for a rude awakening when I start pricing them out in a few months
