invite envelopes

where did you girls get your outer and inner envelopes printed? did you do handwritten or printed? Any recommendations?

Re: invite envelopes

I'm having them done - computer calligraphy. They match the font and color of the invitations.

I printed all of mine on my printer at home. I used microsoft word and created a document that was the size of my envelopes (inner and outer) and typed each one on a separate page and printed them one at a time. (Same with the inner envelopes.) It worked out great and was free!

Handwritten calligraphy on the outer envelope only. Preprinted return addresses

Re: invite envelopes

I think handwritten is nicer and more personal.

I was thinking of doing this but I fear the envelopes will get jammed in the printer so I just bought clear labels and I am going to print on them instead.

Re: invite envelopes

We are in the middle of doing ours- We downloaded a calligraphy font and are printing them on our laser printer. Initially it was a PAIN IN THE @ss b/c Microsoft word would not recognize the custom envelop size but once we fixed the problem it was really easy. I think they look great and we saved some money. I would have LOVED hand calligraphy but I was trying to save some $$.

Re: invite envelopes

I have those same labels and am going to use them to pre-print my thank-you envelopes.

So did I! My handwriting is terrible and it took me about 2 hours and a few envelopes to figure out how to make it look right on the envelope but once I did it was perfect and people said they thought I paid to have it done. My sister hand wrote hers and they also looked just fine.
