Not from Box vs. MyGatsby...

I want to order invitations through either one of these 2 websites. I have not ordered samples, and probably will not (I want to get these out by the middle of June, prob not enough time).

For those of you who have ordered samples from either of these websites, how is the paper quality? That wil probably be the deciding factor for me..I don't want anything too flimsy...

I have to say that i am in love with Not from a box! I was so happy with their sample and the quality couldn't have been any better if they tried!

I still have my sample and it doesn't take long for you to get it from the website. But if you want, i could send you mine! Let me know.

Thanks so much for the offer, I might just take you up on it. I'm getting married in late August and still have not ordered my invitations yet so I'm getting alittle bit nervous. I left a message with Diane from Pippy's Sweets to see if maybe I can order the pocketfolds form her. Hopefully I'll hear back from her soon.

I'm alittle nervous about ordering online..but if I had to choose, I'm leaning towards Not from a Box only because I find the MyGatsby's ordering site alittle hard to navigate...

I wouldn't worry about ordering from Not from a Box. I had a little trouble ordering with my computer, some foul up on my end and Britta was great to work with. She'll email you to double check things and the orders all go through her, so it's great. Plus Not From A Box sends you two proofs i believe through email. Once you approve, you sign off on it and if you don't approve, you send in the revisions and chances are you'll get the updated proof within the day. I HIGHLY recommend them. I just ordered my invites a week and a half ago and i had no problems at all!

I ordered mine from not from a box and they were great. The service was wonderful and we got so many compliments on the invitations.
I had issues with the outer envelopes, but if you use enough glue stick you shouldn't have any problems.

Yeah, when we wet them, the didn't stick. We used glue stick, but I think some of them didn't have enought on them - one of my BMs got an empty envelope, and a buch of people said the envelope was open when they recieved them. If you put a lot of glue stick, though, it will be fine. That wouldn't deter me from recommending them.
