writing out the addresses yourself... not in print but in script...
Is that completely cheesy??

if you have good handwriting why not? I think it adds a personal touch...i ran all mine thru a laser printer because my writing is horrible!

Why don't you get clear address labels (Staples) and run them through your crappy printer to see if they come out okay? just a thought.....

That's what we are doing. I refuse to pay someone to write them out or sit at the printer changing envelopes and hoping that they don't get messed up.
I figure the people usually through out the envelopes and most likely the entire invitation so why go through all the trouble.

I wish I had nice enough handwriting to write out the address' myself. It would add that personal touch! Go for it!!

Re: Invitations: What do you think of...
can you print them at work or have access to a good printer? otherwise there are companies that will address the envelopes for you thru a printer...someone raved about one the other day...
i still think handwriting them is perfectly fine also...depends what you want!

Re: Invitations: What do you think of...
i just posted about this the other day....
i think it is so much easier to address them by hand than to sit at a printer...
i refuse to get a calligrapher...
my penmanship is nice, so i am going to buy a good fountain pen and do it myself...
my friend at work said she'd help me with the printer if i changed my mind...

Yes, they're clear so you can barely see them! I do it all the time for my client parties at work. I'm going to also use the clear lables for all my thank you's for bridal shower and wedding ty's.

Re: Invitations: What do you think of...
Personally I think clear labels are ok for bridal shower invites or even thank you notes, but not for wedding invitations (JMO).
I would hand write in pretty script before doing labels. That said, I would 100% run them through the printer before hand writing them ... my hand is cramping just at the thought
So I vote handwrite if you don't want to print them.

I'm writing mine out myself also. I have very good handwriting, so it's okay. Plus my invites are not super fancy where I would have to do it.

I am going to attempt to print mine out on my printer if I can get it to work.
