Today is the 6 week mark, guests should be recieving their invites in their mailboxes today! Yay!
Unpredictable bride created them for us & we printed them at Staples. Printing them was a much larger (& annoying) task as I had planned.
If you plan on DIY your invites, keep a few things in mind...
- Know your exact dimensions if someone is designing them for you (Unpredicatable bride was GREAT throughout the process).
- Pay attention to the cost for postage AND what's available. We chose to use a postcard for our RSVP cards. BUT, didn't realize that the only 28 cent stamp available from USPS is a polar bear!!!!! I refused to use a polar bear stamp for a June wedding so we ended up using the 44 cent wedding bands instead---total waste of money!!! But ordering from zazzle would have taken too long & cost even more. Plus, we used customized stamps for our STD's.
- we ordered our pocket folds from paperandmore.com they had SUPER fast shipping and great prices.
*Now let's hope people start sending in the RSVPS =]
