place card holders - sad i can't get the ones i liked

I found place card holders i loved but the lady only has 30!
I need 50 to 54. That and she is not giving a great bulk discount on them.

IF anyone EVER sees these please inform me. I want them but i don't want to pay $8.00 for four. I found other shamrock place card holders but fh hates them and they are around 1.25 each which is reasonable to me. I am thinking cards only are going to happen which is fine saves me money but i just loved to have something special and cute like the hats.

Thanks!

Have you checked out an Irish store. I am going wedding shopping with my fiance tomorrow, if I see something I will let you know.

Thanks for keeping a look out. I am doing the Irish shops in a few weeks. I am also going to check out the craft stores this way I get the ones i like and not settle ..otherwise i rather just do a plain card.

THANKS AGAIN!

Re: place card holders - sad i can't get the ones i liked

NOW here is the question. The woman gave me a better price. Now if i get them what about mixing them with the other card holders?

My mom feel the 'formal' ones are nicer and I should just get them alone and not go for the hats because people would actually use the 'formal' ones to hold pictures after the wedding and the hats would just get thrown away.

OPINIONS PLEASE----

MIX THEM? Would give my parents, brother's family, fh's both sisters family the formal ones and everyone else gets the hats.

Forget about the hats and purchase all the formal ones?

Forget about both?

Formal looking ones are these\

Re: place card holders - sad i can't get the ones i liked

I do like the hats...they're VERY cute. But I'd have to agree with the fact that the other ones are more formal and more fit for a wedding. Plus if I remember correctly the 'knot' symbol on the formal ones means trinity love or something right? Which also fits a wedding perfectly too! But it's totally up to you of course! Your day, your wedding, and your money!! And if you REALLY like the hats, get the hats and do the mix! That'll look cute too!
HTH!!
