wedding invitations

what style is everyone using for their wedding invitations?

i've spent the last 3 weeks looking at all the wedding invitations online and they are all starting to look the same!

i want something original! ideas?

You can always do the custom route - find someone who will design your vision from start to finish.

might help to know where you have looked already then we can make suggestions

yea, i've tried. a custom invitation would be great, if only i knew what i was looking for.....

The first ones are in the running right now for us.

I actually was browsing again today and ordered a sample of the second one because I thought it looked really interesting.

Thanks - the only thing with the new ones though is that they measure out to be 8.5'x5'... that seems big but I'll see when i get them in person.

Yours are very pretty! I was contemplating using Tessa as well but wanted to see what i can find first before going the custom route.

We're going to do them ourselves.....I want something REALLY contemporary. I'm just struggling to have it contemporary AND still very formal. Kind of stressful!!!!!!!!

we are having ours custom done....
silk box invite...
cant wait!

i'm having mine custom designed. the girl i am working with is fantastic!! we're getting married in the vineyards, so i wanted my stationary to reflect that but i HATED everything i found online.

i haven't started doing the wedding invites, but she created our engagement party invites for us and they're really unique. (i'll post pics once they're completed!)

FM me if you want more info!

Im using scroll invitations from India

pics are in my Invites album

I think her pricing is pretty good. We are doing the pocketfolds which I know is a little more expensive, but she has lots of different options and ways to keep costs down. When I met with her we originally were going to do the basic flat outside pocket to keep down the cost and she ended up upgrading us for free. We are looking at about $6 an invite.

For everything you're getting I'd say that's a really good price. Do you know if her invites are handmade? The girl I'm working with hand makes every invite so I think she's more expensive. Is it bad I don't care if they're handmade? Lol just give me the cheaper price haha

we are most likely getting invitations made from mygatsby.com.

I dont know if you have tried this website, but I remember looking and looking and couldnt find something until I went to this site.

Good Luck!

I am not even looking at them until late summer LOL
