Looking for the perfect wedding invitations

Mary, on June 14, 2017 at 09:54 Posted in Plan a wedding 0 17

Hi, girls!

I'm in a very beginning of my planning and now looking for the perfect invitations. There are thousands of options, but they all are basically same. Did you come across any unique ones?

Thanks in advance Smiley smile

    If you're still looking, I stumbled across Cards and Pockets for DIY invitations. I'm waiting on our proofs to see how they turn out, but I've had so much fun browsing the website. Smiley smile Hope this helps!

    I bought mine off Etsy from Pineapple Invitations. They're antler & floral rustic style. I wouldn't say unique LOL but we love them. The quality, customer service, and experience was amzing

    So after checking hundreds of options on Vistaprint and Minted I found invitations where you can add a video to the postcard. I'm still quite unsure how it works, cause it’s an augmented reality or so. However, a person who gets an invitation needs just his or her mobile phone to watch the video on the postcard. Its Postcard Actually company, they are based in Canada. Have you heard of them?

    Cool! It sounds very similar to me making decisions Smiley smile I really love all the options and they all seems nice, but there are some I keep on coming back to. I still didn't make final decision, but all the comments here just make it so much easier! Smiley smile Thanks a lot for the support Smiley smile

    Hi, Zoe! Thanks for the inspiration! I really loved the ones with leaves and with a knot. These are just fantastic ideas! As we plan to make it connected to nature flower power also seems pretty cool. So, I might combine all the options above and make the perfect invitations!

    We looked at A LOT of invitations and FH's reactions and mine were always "oh that's nice" or "that might work" and then we found this one and we kept coming back to it, it was aqua blue instead of gray on the website so we decided to see if they could change the colour for us, since our colours are gray and red and pinks. We were originally planning on using Vistaprint because they have such good deals and have really nice invitations but I am so happy with these! We are actually asking our cake artist to see if she can basically make our cutting/saving cake look like the back of the invitation. Yes I love it that much! Smiley smile Smiley heart

    Haha anything I got was 50% off. We waited for sales to happen when ordering it all. When you order from them, in your package you usually receive a 20 or 25% coupon as well that you can use for future purchases Smiley smile i signed up to get e-mails, that way i always know when there are sales happening Smiley smile

    Your invitations are very cool and personal at the same time Smiley smile We do have our own things as well, so it might be nice to use them while decorating our invitations. So many ideas just came to my mind!!

    Hey, Chelsea! You did a great job, all looks so matching and nice Smiley smile I really love the magnet idea, so I will check the options. Did you get all these for a reasonable price? I mean, I didn't plan to make envelope seals, but they seem very pretty and now I want to make them too haha Smiley smile

    We used Minted, it was more expensive than Vistaprint but we fell in love with these invitations. We met through plenty of fish so the fish thing kind of works for us. it is quirky and simple and perfect. I didn't find the costs unreasonable, we uploaded our addresses and all our envelopes so they not only match but they are also already addressed and ready to go!

    Invitations are here!!!! - 2

    Just like Erin, we used vistaprint! They have several sales a year, as much as 50% your purchase! We used them for our save the dates, invitations, thank you cards, envelope seals and our jack and jill tickets! We did all of ours matching because I wanted a certain style, but they have different types of invitations like magnets, or ones with photos of you as a couple, etc! Here are all of my items from vistaprint below! For privacy reasons I put some fake information on these invitations to show everyone on weddingwire!

    Welcome Mary! Congrats on your engagement!

    I know how you feel about the invitations. I thought I would never find anything but we ended up looking through VistaPrint and found great invitations (see below). If you haven't already looked on their site, it is one to consider. Things are generally reasonably priced and there are frequently sales. They also have impeccable customer service in my experience.

    You could also find a stationary store in your area and see if they have anything to offer that is a little different. If you are feeling really daring you could always make your own! Smiley smile
