I ordered a sample kit (I HIGHLY recommend doing this for any paper vendor), then two invitation sets. We had a spelling error, make sure you have some one OUTSIDE of your family and wedding party proof read, I had SEVEN people proof the invites and there was still a mistake. That's my only caveat about mygatsby.com, no proof reader - but they explain that several times before you order. Ordering was very straight forward, and the online tools for formating the invites were AWESOME!
Since mygatsby.com is online, there wasn't a need for me to speak with anyone. From order placement to standard delivery, it took about 1 - 1.5 week for arrival.

MyGatsby was such an AMAZING value for the price. The invitations were so much cheaper than from other sources, without a huge drop in the quality. Although they were not the most elegant or the best looking invites I have ever seen, for the price, they could not be beat!

This site was one of the few that I found that had the invitations with the pockets in them, so that the invitations were more visually appealing...they had the style and color that I wanted (red wine-tough to find). Everything came in on time and correct.

I absolutely loved my invitations. They were one of a kind and exactly what we were looking for. The website is really user friendly and allows you to get a really good sense of what the invitations will look like. We ordered gold leaf paper and it was really lovely. The delivery was very prompt. The invitations were a little on the pricey side, but that is my only criticism. One word of caution - I ordered way too many invitations because I forgot that a lot of my guests came from plus ones, and that I only needed to send out one invitation per couple.

We were very happy with My Gatsby.com. We were able to make our own invitations through their online tools and it was great to customize for the look we wanted. We ordered and got our materials in less than two weeks! We assembled them ourselves in order to save $1/invite, which was great. They have an excellent selection of colors and styles to work from.

I *LOVED* my invitations for our wedding. I kept ordering samples from other vendors, only to be disappointed by the flimsy paper and plain-look of the invites. I wanted something unique and colorful...something formal but also reflective of our beachy theme. Mygatsby.com is perfect for this! I was pleased with their color selection. Despite it saying it would take about 4 weeks to get my final printed invitations in, they were delivered within 1 week! Everyone LOVED the invitations and I know that they really set the tone for our wedding. I spent more than I would have on plain-jane invitations, but I also got more bang for my buck. And I was able to order matching Thank You notes, which have really come in handy after the shower and wedding.

After pouring over tons of websites, going to countless bridal shows, and receiving tons of invitation samples, I was about to give up on finding the perfect wedding invitations. Then I ran into mygatsby.com and their evelopments. I ordered a sample pack, and was able to find colors that matched my wedding perfectly. I am not afraid of DIY, so I was excited to get all the information. I had them professionally print it (because I can do a flat print at home, I wanted something special), and I assembled them at home. The response was unreal-- people thought they were professionally done, and were asking what designer I hired. The extra weight of the card stock made the invitations seem more polished and finished. I then was motivated enough to order more plan card stock to help make the place cards, programs, and menu/table cards. Then with the leftover paper, I made thank you notes to my bridal party and vendors that matched the wedding. The ordering time was short, but the processing was a little longer. They also sent extras of everything (which helped on addressing the envelopes). I loved my invitations, and how they are uniquely mine.

We only ordered folders for our invitations from my gatsby then a friend that does printing professionally made the rest. They came really quickly, they were packed well, and were true to the color and texture that was dipicted online.

After searching around to a number of local paper shops and not wanting to spend thousands of dollars on paper, we were recommended to check out MyGatsby. They print using a variety of processes. We went with thermography, which produces raised printing similiar in engraving. Our invitations turn out spectacular. We absolutely loved them and were perfect for our event. We ordered paper samples to see colors and materials. Our invites were addressed by a calligrapher, so we wanted to make sure the ink would not smear on the paper & envelopes. The online design program is great. Allows you so much flexibility in designing & laying out your invite. Some of it a bit rigid and if you don't like the font styles or art work they have then you are out of luck. The customer service was great. Always responded to email inquiries or phone calls. And the best part was the invites were totally affordable. And with the left over invitations and paper, we re-used for our table numbers/names, and favors. Instead of favors, we did a donation and simply printed at home (reusing the invite paper) where our money went. Another bonus was some of the papers at MyGatsby are available at paper & craft stores like Michael's so if you wanted to coordinate more things, the options are available.

Great Website/Service. Be prepared to make your own invitations. You have to do the fonts/layout/etc on your own if you design from scratch.
Everything came packaged great, no issues no problems. Very satisfied with the site. Oh, make sure to order a color pack sample of their colors before placing your order. It changed my color scheme after I saw them in person.

Highly recommend!!! They have so many options that it took me longer to select our invitations than it did for me to choose my dress! LOL!!! We actually purchased separate color schemes for our two different guest lists which went with our place settings. Everyone really seemed to like this. They were very nice and I usually received a reply very shortly after requesting help. I also changed my mind twice and they couldn't have been nicer or more accommodating. If you haven't selected your invitations yet, you have to at least take a look at what they have to offer.

This was one of the things on the wedding list that concerned me the most. Our guest list was for over 300 people and I decided that we needed to get good quality invitations so we can get people excited about the wedding. I shoped around a few places and was referred to this place by the stores I actually visited. They offered a wide selection and variety of invitations and favors. I decided to spend a little more and we got some favors attached to the invitations as well. A lot of the guests were excited and eager to find out what else was in store. It seemed like all our guests loved our invitations and the hubby even liked them too! I will recommend this place to my other friends and they were awesome. Great customer service and wide selection of invitations. They will have something for anyone! Thansk again!

I searched around a lot for a place that allowed me to mix and match certain parts of my invitation. MyGatsby.com was perfect! The website was really easy to use. The invitations arrived fast and turned out better than I had imagined. Compared to other invitation sites I was able to get the exact look I wanted for half the price. I would highly recommend this site!
