Invite opinion

I am putting together my own invites after realizing I wwould not be able to find anything I liked for less than $5,000! Take a look. It is a VERY rough draft I will probably have them printed at a professional printer or Kinkos

I'm thinking about doing that myself too, but don't I have to get the invite paper that it has to be printed on if I take it to Kinkos or a printer? How would that work?

Re: Invite opinion

I am buying all the paper i need online. I just ordered samples of a few last night. Also if you can catch a sale at Michaels or AC moore you could probably get it pretty cheaply. Check out:

Click on DIY invite bio and down at the bottom of the page is a whole list of inspiration souces and paper companies. I am going to have my future FIL print everything for me as he has a friend that works for Xerox then I am going to take it to Kinko's to have it cut. Beware because you will get obsessed!
