Placecards/Calligraphy

My venue 'Includes placecards', so I assumed they would write the info on the cards. They don't. They just handed me a stack of cards.

Are you writing out your placecards yourself or having them done? Thanks.

Mine too- and they are not super nice looking

I think I might bite the bullet and have 'her' do them to match my invites since my printer is broken

I was originally going to either have my brother in law handwrite them, since he has amazing handwriting (on the ones provided by the venue)

or get printable ones from Staples

I also had this whole DIY idea with butterflies, but it's just too much for me right now.

*she* made a minor mistake on my invites so she offered to give me the placecards for free, so I am going for that!

I made my own placecards and sent them to get hand calligraphy done from the same person who wrote out my invitation envelopes.

What's an average amount to spend per placecard on calligraphy? Thanks.

I did the the calligraphy on my invites (they came out great) so will prob do the same for the place cards. I want them to look nice but to me, its not a huge part of my wedding day so didn't want to pay someone else to do them.

Do you have a pic of what they look like by any chance? I'm trying to figure out if its worth it to buy my own.
