X-post from 2014 Brides...HELP!!!!!

Ok girls, I'm panicking a little bit...

I thought I'd be able to print the addresses for my invites on the envelopes using my dad's printer at work. Now that I got the invites, the envelopes are lined, and I'm scared that the printer will ruin the envelopes. I need to send the invites at the beginning of next week, since our RSVP date is April 2nd. (We made it very early because we are having a wedding during peak season, and want to make sure people have plenty of time to plan, book hotels, OOT guests to make arrangements, etc.)

I went into Staples today to ask if they did invitation printing, since I had heard that they did it, but they don't do it if you have your own envelopes, and they send it to an outside service which would take 7-10 business days, even if they had envelopes that worked.

So my panic is about how I'm supposed to get the addresses on the envelopes. I definitely don't want to hand write them, and I think it may be too late to get a calligrapher. Even if we found one who could somehow do it in time, I fear it may cost a fortune. We were trying to do invites inexpensive because I promised FH I'd cut the budget somewhere.

Does anyone have any suggestions?! HELP!!!

I've heard of minuteman printing. Maybe link is? Any printing service.

I'm using wedding ink to do my envelopes. It's worth a **** I know she usually takes 10 days but doesn't hurt to see.

i TOTALLY think you could just go the clear label route. From what I've heard they are very easy to use & not too hard to put on straight

Exactly this! Go to staples, target Wal-Mart it's by Avery. Get the cost labels print them, peel and stick!! Easiest fastest way to do it! I used them for my parents anniversary party invites!!

Totally go with the clear labels. That's what I did and it was super easy and very cost effective!

I did Clear labels, and they were super easy to work with, and looked super pretty on the envelopes :) I hope this helps
