Bump!

We are doing the same thing and will need to print my STDs next month, and the rest of our wedding stationery later so I would love to hear peoples' suggestions too.

I designed my own invitations and rsvps and printed them at staples for about 20 bucks. They cut them to size and everything! All you have to do is email them or take them on flash drive in to the store and tell them how many... I had special paper too so I gave them that prior to printing

We went to a local paperie and custom designed them, it was awesome

I did all my printing on VistaPrint. Had some help from another WW lady...they turned out great and noone knew how much I DIDN'T spend on them. :-) lol

Thanks everyone for your input! Here is the invitation set my fiancé and I want but is way too expensive. Can vistprint do something like this? Shiny gold lettering, envelopes, and all the other details?

Doesn't hurt to try a local print shop, not a chain, but a momma nd pop outfit, they will likely be glad to get your business, and will print a sample first... It's what we did,

Beautiful Invite Design!!!!!

I will be designing my own & either printing them here or on a site like vistaprint. If you need the design, you might look on Etsy. I don't think I can put my link on here because it's promotional, but there are many of us on Etsy that make digital designs.

We did our own at home on the HP printer. run a test one through your printer. you might be surprised at how good they look

We used Cards & Pockets, http://www.cardsandpockets.com. They supplied the pocketfolds, the envelopes, and the mats, and printed the invitation card and all the enclosures. We preferred them to Vistaprint, although they were more expensive, because they had more choices in paper colors and weights.

I did my invitations on shutterfly by using one of the photo post card options that allows a photo on top (did a google search for beach wedding images to use) and text on bottom. They look fantastic and were much cheaper than other places. I then ordered coordination RSVP cards and labels from walmartstationery.com.

The "shiny gold print" is foil, which is a high-end process. Carlson Craft or a Letterpress shop would be your best option for that type of printing. For custom printing through Carlson Craft, you will need to locate a dealer in your area at

www.carlsoncraft.com who can handle the order process for you and provide a quote.

I printed 60 sets of invitations on my paper at Staples for $19.08.

A more affordable option would be a printable border card, like this, with black ink. You can add more deco flair with your design and font choices, or you can try a layered style with gold paper and black ink. You can add more gold with lined envelopes, too. Either of these options would offer a similar style at a more affordable price.

BEWARE of Staples. It might just be the one in my town, but I had to get mystuff reprinted 3 times and in the end they still didnt get it right.....
