Ideas For Cheap Wedding Invitations

Ah, wedding invitations... cheap wedding invitations. You open your mailbox and there...a special envelope, so neat, so pretty, you know right away what it is.

Writing them out takes a bit of doing. First get organized. Make sure you have everyone's full name or title and their correct address.

Next, get your supplies together. Now you're ready to hand-write the addresses on your envelopes. You might consider a professional calligrapher (very expensive) or you might just enlist the help of a friend or family member with beautiful handwriting.

Don't forget, your invites should be mailed out six to eight weeks before the wedding.

You need to give your guests plenty of time to RSVP so you can get an accurate head count at least a week before the event.

Ideas For Cheap Wedding Invitations:

It used to be proper etiquette to mail them in two envelopes. The inner envelope protected the invitation. But that isn't necessary nowadays and is an added expense.

Consider using a postcard inside for the RSVP. You'll save on postage

You can check online for wholesale or discount invites. There are lots of sources on the net.

Check out places like Kinko's. They have very reasonable prices

A very cheap alternative is a kit- this allows you to make them yourself right on your computer

Cheap wedding invitations can be beautiful. Do some searching, make the hand-written addresses elegant and pick pretty stamps. You won't sacrifice style; you'll just save money.
