Ordering Invitations Online - Bad Experience

Hello All:

I figured I'd pass this on -- and since it's about a vendor that's a direct competitor to LI Weddings I bet they won't mind...

Just teasing LI W....but since I wrote the initial Designer Limos post - I hope you'll indulge me...Anyway - on to business...

I ordered my invites through Wedding Channel -- Long story short - they didn't look as amazingly great as they did on the sample photo on the site, but they were fast, cheap and easy to get & overall I was satisfied...until I had to mail them out to the calligrapher. I noticed that a lot of the envelopes (out of all of the outer & inner envelopes - at least 25) were damaged in some way - mostly small stains and/or rips. I'm not super-anal about this stuff either - the damage is definitely noticable. And I don't think this happened in transit, since the damage appeared on random envelopes (not just the ones on top/bottom of the box that was shipped to me).

Luckily for me, I ordered a lot extra - so it didn't affect me one way or the other -- but someone else might not be so lucky...

Dora,

Thanks for your post. It's a good idea to check everything you receive from online vendors to make sure everything is fine.

I'm sure your invitations are beautfiul.
