About

The exclusive wedding invitations by Formal-Invitations.com feature luxurious layers adorned with keepsake embellishments, designed for the bride who wants high style at an affordable price. We are a family-owned company dedicated to providing beautiful, earth-friendly, cheap wedding invitations that only look expensive. Our invitations are only available directly from us at http://www.formal-invitations.com, providing you the lowest possible price. Formal-Invitations.com was founded in 1991 by Melissa Nyssen, as an alternative to high priced invitations and cheap, flimsy, kits that we found difficult to setup and print. Our mission is to provide high quality, unique, earth-friendly and incredibly easy diy wedding invitations, starting at 70¢ each plus affordable custom printed wedding invitations.

The high-end look of our invitations is achieved by using a heavyweight background card layered with a printable overlay then adorned with a unique embellishment, to stand out from the typical flat announcement. The layered invitations were designed to be made easily using our free wedding invitation templates, just change the wording, print and cut …no tiny sheets to print on! Custom printing is also available for your convenience.

Select from over 250 unique wedding invitations kits, or mix and match invitation components from over 50 premium background cards and 300 unique embellishments to create your own distinctive design. Wedding invitation kits include the heavyweight background card, printable overlay (shipped uncut in standard easy-to-print 8.5x11 sheets), embellishment and envelope. An additional outer envelope, envelope liner, tissue overlay, seals, corresponding cards and custom printing are additional options offered.

We use only high quality, 100% post-consumer recycled papers for the invitation envelopes, white overlays, reply cards, reply envelopes and cover stock. Formal-Invitations.com is an approved business by Green America and has been featured in Bride's 75 Best Wedding Web Sites, Martha Stewart Weddings, InStyle Weddings, Bridal Guide, Bridal Bargains, and on the Style Channel.

Melissa graciously helped me create the invitations for my mom's 75th birthday celebration. The party was a glorious day and key to its success was the tone that the invitations set for the party---elegance with a color & bling pop.

I remain so humbled by Melissa's dedication to her craft. She made magic for my momma and for that, I am grateful.

I ordered some materials for my diy wedding invitations. They arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Unfortunately, one of the items sent to me was wrong but I contacted them by e-mail and received a reply that same day. The correct item was sent the next business day.

I recently bought paper to make my own invitations from their DIY section. They had a huge selection and exactly what I wanted. Teal paper with ribbon and butterflies. The order came quickly and they got back to me quickly on information about my order.

I love Formal Invitations. I wanted something unique and I couldn't find anything until I stumbled across this site. They have a very good and affordable selection of invitations for DIYers or assembled. The shipment was fast and all questions were answered promptly. I did however decide to use another invitation service as I was just overwhelmed when I tried to make my own. I still love the idea though!!

The service was beyond exceptional; I had a short period of time to get my invitations out, I told her what I wanted and she delivered exactly. I am most appreciative for all the assistance you offered. The layered invitations were beautiful, they were just as described and previewed on the site. I would definitely recommend Formal-Invitations.com to anyone who needed the service.

I was looking for diy invitations that could be made on recycled paper but were inexpensive and easy to assemble. I found this site and placed an order for the materials I wanted to work with. After ordering, I realized I had ordered the same color paper in different weights and was worried that I would mix them up, however they sorted and labeled everything in the box very neatly. I was impressed.

I found the diy tutorials on their website very helpful. I also took advantage of their clearance items and some of the paper tools they provide (like the hole punch--how convenient to just have it all in the box ready to go). I highly recommend this company if you want cheap diy invites that look great!

It was awesome to use them for making really good-looking invitations that were super cheap. It took longer than expected to get the text looking good, even though they give you a template to make it easier. my partner and I spent one good day putting the invitations together and that was that. they shipped fast, all super easy.

two other couples, friends of ours, also used them and had great experiences. one of the couples got charged wrong, and they just notified the company and it was quickly corrected, and that couple came out feeling really positive about the company too. big thumbs up.
