DIY Wedding
The Invites

Wow! I can't believe we just finished all 180ish of our invitations. They are stuffed, addresses, stamped, and ready to mail out next week. I'm really happy with the way they came together. I ordered the main invitation from The American Wedding and the black pocket folds from MyGatsby. Our local Staples did all of the inserts and it was much cheaper than any other website I found online.

At the last minute the FH decided to add the sticker with the website address & honeymoon info. Kudos to him! I sent out business cards with this info when I mailed the Save the Dates, but several people said they accidently threw it away with the envelope because they didn't realize it was inside. Hopefully they'll see this one!

There's a previous post about the envelopes. The FH lined them himself with pink/black damask scrapbook paper. Very cool!

@leeann - no problem!

I ordered the black pocket folds from MyGatsby. They are the 6x9 Gate Folio Pocket and here's the link:

The actual invitation with the damask came from The American Wedding. I couldn't replicate their quality myself so I just gave in and ordered these. Here's the link:

I created the inserts and the label with the registry information myself using Microsoft Word. If you send me your email address I can send the files. Staples printed 200 of each insert and cut them to my specified sizes for only $60! I printed the labels at home.
