Re: Invitations Questions
I'd say first figure out what style you like, (traditional/pocketfolds/simple, or ornate, colored fonts, lots of embellishment etc?). I was overhwelmed with picking something!!! After that, the card stock, the # you need, and 'upgrades' (like lined envelopes, not required, but look GREAT) will affect the final price.
For an idea, mine ended up being exactly what I wanted, slightly over budget though... Pic 1 looks 'gold' but they were a light ivory with a little 'sparkle' on the outside cover.... The enclosures were printed on Opal Stardream paper. I think we ran about $10.00 per invite, I think I'm slightly over the average on that, but its hard to say, I've seen people on LIW spend as little as $200 or as much as $5000 on their invites, its a huge range!!!

Re: Invitations Questions
We used Invitations and Beyond in Oceanside. They have a whole realm of invites to fit any budget, and they work with you.I think we spent a little over 300.00 for 110 guests. We went simple, and went along with our theme, and couldn't have been happier. I would highly suggest them. Speak to Jessica or Barbara.

We did as well and they were fantastic. The invitations were shipped right from the manufacturer and we had them within a week of ordering them.
