Thrifty. Frugal. Cheap. Tight. Whatever you call it, there's no question that inexpensive wedding invitations are a savvy investment for many brides. These budget-friendly tips will help you spend less on invites so you can spend more on whatever else you choose.
*Go direct - Some local bridal shops will offer wedding stationery ordering services. It's true they provide the convenience of large catalogs filled with samples you can see and feel. The drawback? Because the shop acts as a middleman you'll pay inflated prices. Cut the extra cost from your wedding stationery budget by working directly with a printer. Don't be beguiled by the direct-to-you prices either. Online wedding specialists offer hundreds of designs to match any wedding theme or style. In addition, many online wedding stationery specialists allow you to create or upload custom designs for inexpensive invites that are uniquely you.
*Become a DIY-er - Wedding stationery specialists offer convenient kits, making it super-easy for brides to make their own inexpensive wedding invitations. These kits offer quality blank invitations, envelopes and matching items such as save-the-date or reply cards. Make your own wedding invitations by running the paper through your home computer for an instant custom look without the custom price. DIY kits are also available for other wedding items, such as programs and thank you notes.
*Make your own wedding invitations - For the ultimate in inexpensive wedding invites, you might want to make your own invitations from scratch. Design simple text invitations with basic word processing software. Or let your inner artist burst forth by using design software to incorporate images, borders, and vintage-looking fonts. Find printer-quality paper through online wedding stationery specialists or at local craft stores. If you're missing the designing gene, consider purchasing a template, which will allow you to print invites from a home computer. Although it can be easy to make your own wedding invitations, take into account the time and energy it will take. Also ask yourself if this type of project will add stress to what can be a challenging time of life.
*Electronic invitations - If you don't want to create your own invites and professional printing is not in your budget, create inexpensive wedding invitations by using the internet. Send invites through email or--for ultra-casual events--text message. Enlist online invitation services to streamline planning by notifying you of RSVP messages or alerting guests to changes, such as moving a garden wedding indoors because of cruddy weather. Electronic invitations aren't generally approved by etiquette mavens, however, nor do they provide guests with a tangible reminder of your wedding day.
Don't let tiny budgets cramp your wedding day style. From warehouse-style pricing direct from the printer to the ease of a DIY kit, by investing in inexpensive wedding invitations you can create a custom--and high-quality--look while pinching pennies.
