A great option generally, but especially for fast DIY. Invitations were not high on my priority list, so doing them myself made sense. Further, given my indecisive nature and busy schedule, instant download was a necessity, as was the ability to customize the text and layout (for fun, I added last-minute a back with a watercolor version of a google map via Stamen showing the walk between our church and the reception). Swell and Grand delivers all of these in spades, along with a charming, well-curated collection of options. There are tons of other options (both on Etsy and the web generally), but none really had the combination of price, customizability, and general stylishness (so many bad designs or passable ones in a limited color scheme). The one we went with (Nightlife) wasn't my first choice, but my fiance loved it because it reminded him of one of our favorite restaurants when we were first dating (similar aesthetic feel), so it was a no-brainer. As I realized when I fell into the black hole of free fonts (I needed to customize a coordinating insert), you could do a lot of it (particularly a text-heavy design like the one we went with) yourself, but it'd be at the end of a lot of days and still be heavily informed by Leslie's design sensibility in the original invitation. Our $25 was money well, well spent, and we were very happy with the invitations (no issues with printing at home).
