Invite help- opinions please!!!

I have to send back my quote for my invites and I seriously can't decide if I want the rhinestone on the corner ribbon. I'm getting mixed reviews from everyone... it will save $100 or so if we leave the rhinestone out. What do i do? I feel like it definitely needs something there but part of me isnt sure.

Pics in my album- i tried putting them directly in but they were too large!!

They look great either way but I say, if you can swing the $100, go for the rhinestone!! otherwise, don't worry about it and get them without!

I personlly like it better with out it. The rhinestone is pretty but to me it lookw bottom heavy with it just on the corner. IMHO. Plus the added bonus of saving money

I personally like it without. But either way you can't go wrong. Like the girls say, on the upside you will save money if you go without it.

I like it better without. I think the ribbon looks really good and why spend the $100 if you don't have to.

It would go without it.

Re: Invite help- opinions please!!!

I like it both ways, but of course I'm partial to the extra bling

Just an FYI - with the rhinestone will be heavier, therefore more expensive to mail. Also, the rhinestone makes it thicker, which also makes it more expensive to mail. My invites were $0.78 to mail, plus an extra $0.20 each because they're too thick to go through the machine. That's $0.98 each to mail!!!!! So I just coughed up over $200 yesterday on stamps.

Just some extra food for thought..........

Re: Invite help- opinions please!!!

i think spending $100 extra dollars on an invitation (plus extra on postage because of the added weight) is not worth it ... save that money and use it on something more 'tangible' like an RH upgrade, or a nicer photographer package

If it means saving $100, don't bother! Invites are great, but no one will notice if its missing. Also, not many people will save the invite after the wedding is over...I wouldn't bother!

Re: Invite help- opinions please!!!

Thank you!! I was worried about the extra cost of them being square, I didn't even think about the thickness!!
