Hi everyone! I've started looking into invitations for the big day. I received great samples from Invitations by Dawn, but it took me so long to receive them, I'm a little hesitant to order wedding invites through them. Has anyone used them or have any other good experiences with budget friendly online invitation retailors? TIA

I searched a lot for invitations & just found beautiful invitations and great prices by cherished moments invitations in patchogue. The owners name is Catherine & she's excellent to work with! Great customer service & good prices! Check out her website cminvite.com

I ordered invitations online from David's Bridal and am really happy with them. I requested like a million samples and always got them pretty quickly. My invitations came within the time frame they gave me, i think it was about 2 weeks, and I absolutely loved them. If you sign up for their emails you can get some really good deals, I got the response cards free of charge, free shipping as well.

My samples from Invitations by Dawn came fast but I really wasn't impressed. Someone recommended Whimsy B. Designs and I fell in love! It's not an online shop but you can see a lot of their work online. They're located in Deer Park.

I found invitations I loved online! My only question is how far in advance should I order? I need to call and see about that. I would honestly order now but I def don't have all my addresses and final list yet.

I'm waiting for my samples from Invitations by Dawn right now. They shipped on Monday. I might go check out a local shop. Whimsy B Designs does have an Etsy shop if you wanted to look around. I live in the town that borders Deer Park, so it's right up the road from me. I'll check them out in person. I thought at first that I wanted to DIY my invites, but now it just seems like a lot of work. lol.

I didn't know they had an Etsy shop! Thanks for that tip. I have a friend who did her own invites. I just don't have that skill!

I actually do have the skill, I just suffer from this terrible affliction called LAZY and I think if I start, I'll never finish.

Maybe I shouldn't be concerned then if I use them. I guess the mail by me is just super slow. How far in advance are you supposed or order invitations?

I also ordered my invites from David's Bridal. The shipping was fast and I love them. I was just so afraid of messing them up. So I proofread them a million times. lol

I used Invitations by Dawn. I was happy with them. I didn't want to spend a fortune on them and they came fast. They even printed the addresses on the envelopes which was a big time saver.

I'm glad you had a good experience with them. I also don't want to spend a fortune and they had a style I liked. I was only concerned because it took an extremely long time to get my samples. Maybe the mail was just bad on my end. I didn't know they printed the addresses on the envelopes. How far in advance did you order them?

I order everything as far in advance as I can just in case. I would rather have it out of the way and what is the risk? I found nice ones from Kleinfield paper
