Some people don’t like the word cheap so let me change my wording…

If you are looking for discount, low cost, or inexpensive wedding invitations I have a few suggestions for you.

Anns Bridal Bargains is a site that’s always mentioned on the wedding forums as a place to check out. The have
some very affordable invites starting at around $60 for 100.

Another site that’s mentioned is Invitations By Dawn I don’t know much about the company except that a lot of brides on the wedding forums seem to ask about experiences with them. Either they’ve piqued a lot of people’s interest, or they have one heck of an Internet marketing campaign going on. The prices are comparable to Anns Bridal Bargains.

And being that I use this company for everything…from business cards for my multiple ventures, to postcards, to magnets…and yes, even invitations. Good old VistaPrint. I was a little nervous, because I trusted their quality in terms of business materials, but I wasn’t quite sure if it would be classy enough for wedding invitations.

F.Y.I .you have a choice of using your own template or using one of their designs. I chose to modify one of their designs and I was pleased with the result. If you are wondering about envelopes and R.S.V.P.’s- their invitations come with plain envelopes, or you can get nicely designed ones for an extra cost (that’s what I did). As for the R.S.V.P., I always planned on offering 2 options- phone and via our website so it worked out great that I could just design a business card that matched the invite and use that to distribute the R.S.V.P. information.

As for the quality, if you decide to go this route I recommend you upgrade and get glossy paper for everything. I don’t think they would have come out as nicely if I had used matte.
