Cheapish wedding invites

becca0417

Where have you all got invites from?
I haven't got time to make them and the ones in the shops I'm not keen on
I haven't got a massive budget so just wondered if you have any recommendations x

We're doing ours pretty cheaply using cards from Hobbycraft, but we're only inviting 35 guests. We've found some nice templates online, and so it's literally just a case of typing in the name in a nice font, printing them off and glueing them onto the card. It'll probably take me the same length of time as handwriting all the names on. We're only having a flat card, not one that opens, so no need to mess on designing and making a cover for it.

we got our from m&s you print the inserts for them and it was really easy and cheap.

we used Marks and spencer, desighn your own and have them printed ( the insides) the price goes down the more you add , esp if you get them all sent to your home address so although it looks pricey they get cheaper as you add! they turned out lovely keep sakes

We've gone for special day invitations .co .uk (am too new to post links apparently) - they work out really affordable. I was quite bad and took the picture (we're going for purple diamond flat invitations) and made my own save the date fridge magnets and will use it as an RSVP card too so we have a matching set.
That site lets you order samples for £3 that they take off your cost if you order invites and we did that and they're nice, good quality. They work out at about £40 for 50 invitations so really good I thought (compared to some!!!)

Not sure if they have what you like, but www.vistaprint.co.uk used to do postcards/invites etc very cheaply. I used them for advertising purposes - templates which you personalise etc.

Here's the link to the wedding page: http://www.vistaprint.co.uk/event/wedding.aspx?xnav=LeftItem&xnid=_Wedding

Hope this helps.. may be worth a look. Homepage shows 30% disc on all products in August too.
good luck!

Vistaprint is driving me up the wall at the minute! can anyone help?
I have made a design on photoshop including all the text i want (specific font) and tried the upload your own image thing. It says it needs to be 300dpi, which i have updated the image to be in photoshop, but when i upload it again it still says low resolution and looks awful, yet on photoshop it's exactly as i want it! any ideas? i'm not a fan of the template ones so was hoping this would be a way round it

We used vistaprint but weren't keen on the wedding section ones so we adapted something else from the general announcements as the colour theme on it was perfect for us. We managed to get day invitations from the announcements, evening invites were actually save the date cards, and we also used their business cards to serve as drinks vouchers

I used vistaprint too, i used folded thank u cards for wedding invites(10 for free), flat thank you cards for evening invites(10 for free), business cards for RSVPs(250 for free). £5.02 P&P i will keep doing sperate orders of 10 and pay the postage as it will be cheaper then getting a larger qty, P&P is cheaper for less orders also £3 for just 10 invites
