DIY'ing your invites, but don't know where to start???
I am trying to start my own little invitation design company and I figgure to get myself started I would offer free wedding invitation designs for the first 5 brides to be that want to take me up on the offer.
If you plan on DIY'ing your own invites, then maybe I can help you out a bit. I can design your invite and email you a pdf of the invite for you to print on your own cardstock. If you want the full service (design print and ship to you) then I will only charge for the cardstock and the shipping charges (for first 5 that contact me). I have a Xerox phaser Solid ink printer which has phenominal quality - much better then inkjet.
I have photoshop and all the fixins and I have many many fonts from which you can choose from. I've posted 4 examples 2 of them that I was going to use for myself (before I changed my mind) and the other 2 are mock ups I did for fun. I've also posted a bunch of fonts that I have (I have more then this, just ask for a certain style and I can send you examples).
If you're like myself, and want something a little different, I've created a "newspaper" invitation, (this is the one I'm actually using for my wedding) with simpsons characters (that look like us) and articles that tell the guests everything they need to, or want to, know about the wedding. (My FH and I are really not traditional at all). If you want to see it, email me and I will send it to you.
If you are interested, email me!! you can just use the "contact me" button on my page. In the email tell me what you theme is, what you're looking for in your invitation, what you want it to say (if you're not sure of this give me an idea of whether you want it traditional, casual, etc) and give me your WBC page address as well as any pictures of invitations you've seen that you like. Also, let me know what you'll need (invite, RSVP card, reception card, name cards, etc).
If you don't know what you want, just send me your page address and let me make something that follows your theme! After I recieve the first 5 requests I will make them, post the designs on my page and see what everyone thinks (don't worry, I won't use your real name/location for the examples I post on my page!!)
email me kohrend@yahoo.com
I just saw the invitation you did for divadan80 and I am completely in love with it. My color is turquoise just like hersssssssss.... so it would be perfect. I know I am a little bit late but I am trying LOL.
Anyway let me know how much you charge for the design and pdf. Thanks
