FH informed me yesterday that he would like to send out STDs even though we previously decided to skip them (don't ask). I'd like to order them now to take advantage of any special holiday discounts. Aside from Shutterfly, do you have any websites you would recommend for STDs?

Depending on whether you want to do a postcard or a magnet, some popular sites are weddingpaperdivas.com, magnetstreet.com, agiftfulheart.com (I used that one and my magnets came out really nice), or vistaprint.com

We did Vistaprint. Used our own design. We paid about $1 each + postage. Also, you will need to buy envelopes so take that cost into account.

I used Wedding Paper Divas, but I've been getting a lot of emails from Zazzle with coupons and sales lately. I used them for address labels and they have really great customer service. I recommend both.

I used magnetstreet for magnet STDs. They were about a dollar each which includes envelopes.

Haha that's funny, we were going to skip them as well and my fiance' last week mentioned that we probably should just send some out because people are constantly asking us when the date is again. Granted, we are sending our invites out in like, March. But I figure a reminder doesn't hurt, especially with teachers & their Winter breaks/vacations getting all messed up.
ANYWAY, we just ordered through shutterfly and I am so excited to get them in the mail & see them in person!

I used agiftfulheart.com and they came out great. Have received many compliments on them. Picture is in albums. There were coupon codes you could use and the whole process was easy. They came with envelopes too.

Edited to correct the name of the website.

Me too. It's a great option if you want magnets!

MagnetStreet for magnets, magnet cards plus free envelopes. I made the seals and calendar stickers (last minute) myself. Pictures in album.

Re: STD Help

Thanks, ladies. So, turns out we won't be doing them. FH wanted to send STDs to just a handful of people, mostly his friends who have a hard time remembering stuff like weddings. Once I told him STDs were an all-or-nothing proposition, he decided he didn't want to do them.
