invitations help

hi,

we have bought some fancy wedding invitations for the day guests which are lovely. we are having the ceremony at the registry office so numbers are limited and we didn't need too many.

now my problem is the evening reception,,,,, we need around 60 invitations and refusing to pay a lot for these. im just wanting the normal paper ones (like childrens party invites). ive searched ebay to no avail. ive looked in our local market but the colours were wrong, my theme is ivory and gold and the invites were purple and pink.

where can I find some cheap basic invites:mad:.

    Print some off in a fancy font? That's what we did. Or they have specific evening invites in M & S but they may be pricey.

    May I suggest vistaprint? We're about to order our invitations off there - we've just customised some of the 'postcards' they have, and it's going to cost us under £20 for 100
    Officially saved enough to cover the cost of our wedding! :A
