Hey there! So I have decided to post some wedding tips that I have learned along this journey of planning a very DIY wedding. I may not spill all of my secrets until after the wedding but I figured to post some as I go so I don't forget all of them. And since I am right in the middle of ordering invitations and stationary items, I figured it would be good to talk about that.
Now I am designing my invitations, which is obviously a cheaper option, but if you are not comfortable with that, there are plenty of cheaper options. This site talks about some great free templates online, but there are also some downloadable templates on Etsy like this for low prices. Once you have that all set, all you need is to find the best and cheapest place to print them. Now my automatic place to look is at Vistaprint.com, which has been great for many things which I will talk more about later, but that really wasn't the best option. Actually the best place I found which my sister-in-law actually showed me is www.printrunner.com. This place is the bomb.com! They do all types of printing, postcards, stickers, and all types of sizes for great, fair prices! And they are great to work with, my SIL said that apparently with the template she uploaded some of the design would be cut off, and they contacted her as soon as they caught it. BUT also by being in school I was able to contact my colleges' printing services and they are willing to do it for a very reasonable price also. So, whichever way you choose to do it, think outside the box! With doing it myself, it looks like I am able to have the invitations (including RSVP cards and envelopes) for less than 60 cents each! SO worth it to me :)
Oh so back to vistaprint- the best deal there for sure is the 250 business cards for free. Need an insert to say where you are registered of the location of the reception? Use a business card! They have some decent designs, and its the perfect size for someone to fit into their purse or wallet. They also make adorable small stickers that you can custom design for putting on favors. This place has literally been a life saver!
Are there any other options that you explored! Would love to know!!
With Love,
