My Quote for Menus and Programs!

So I just recieved a quote for $550.00 shipping and tax included for:

300 menus
75 Booklet style (folded paper) Programs
15 Drink Menus

It seems a little expensive too me or is that normal?

Any advice, vendor recommendations or special info. I should know about?

Help me please!

I may just do it on Vistaprint.

i bought paper on paper-papers.com and made all my stuff myself. program fans im working on, direction cards im doing, menu's i was going to do but then i found out reception hall does them, petal cones. the paper is cheap and reallly nice. i like the stardream mettalics best.

$1 per menu seems like a lot of money

IT DEPENDS ON THE PAPER AND HOW MANY COLORS YOUR DESIGN IS....

PROGRAMS SAME THING AND IF THEY ARE BEING ASSEMBLED?

It seems like a lot of money to me. If the menus are $1 each at 300 then that's obviously $300 so the 75 programs and 14 drink cards are $250?? That is seems steep. You should def try to DIY. They have really pretty card stock paper at Michael's. Try inkspun, I think they do that stuff for a lot less. It's def worth checking out their site, they give the prices on their site. Good luck.

To me it sounds a little high. Would you be willing to do the menus one per couple instead of one per guest?

Funny that you say that- it's actually from them!

I can't believe how expensive it is- I would love to work with them- I love their stuff but I don't think FH is okay with the price He said it was a lot and now in retrospeect- it seems like a lot.

Should I ask them to work with me?

How about doing menus for every other person? our own liweds Kim told me that there was a menu for each person at twoty and it was wayyy too much that ended up crowding the tables

Wow that is alot for them. See if they can work with your price, if not check out some Etsy vendors or maybe even try to make them youself. I am attempting the programs myself! (not going to be pretty)

Try to contact Kendra Berry from Berry Ink/Berry Design. She's doing my programs and a bunch of other stuff for me and it's not that expensive. she's really sweet and helpful too.

IMO that's very expensive...especially since you can do them as a diy project for so much less...!!

Does your RH provide menus? Some do, some don't. It might save you some $ if you can work it out with them.

Just thought of this...why not print only 1-2 drink menus per bar and put them in a pretty frame.

I feel like that's right on target for the amount you're getting. 300 menus could cost that much alone!

I recommend using vista print.
