>Wedding Wednesday – Invitations
>
The end result, she is worth it! Ben designed our invitations and had them printed with Vistaprint. We are very happy with the result. My only complaint: after spending hundreds of dollars on save-the-dates and this order, they still wanted $10 to not print their name all over the inside of the envelopes. However, they included a king’s ransom in blank white envelopes (in two sizes even!). I would have much rather had their name NOT all over the insides of the envelopes than a lifetime supply of the blank whites. We giggled. But really I shouldn’t complain, because we got what we needed. The invitations look and feel great. I can’t wait to send them out! Almost done, almost done.
Happy Hump-Day! I spent the afternoon on the phone with the woman doing the flowers and she is fabulous. I was so worried it was too late! Not so. Huzzah! So many other things to do, despite my ultra-productive day yesterday. The real question is this: Do I want to put on pants and leave the house on this cold, rainy day? Well when I put it like that, the answer is so obvious! *finds the warmest blanket and a kitty*
>They look wonderful! Ben did a great job, and you are doing a wonderful job putting them together:) I just used vistaprint for something and found that they are cheap yes, but with tricky catches. They wanted DOUBLE the money to have it shipped within a reasonable amount of time, and I didn't pay it, and they sent them to me early anyway. Like you say, I guess you can't complain- just have to watch out for their weird tricks. Glad it's all coming together!
>That purple and burlap combo is SO cute! It's like relaxed country meets elegant royalty =)
>They look GREAT! So pretty. You always come up with such awesome, unique ideas! 🙂
>Thanks everyone for the compliments! We've been trying to make everything look super cute, and I think its working out. So much left to do though!!
>Nancy – Yes we noticed that they have some weird things going on; sometimes they work out in your favor and sometimes not. With our first order (save-the-dates) they included a coupon for 25% off a smaller order.. we should have only done like 75% of the cards we needed and used the coupon for the rest. Oops. I love that they ended up sending yours early though!
>I know. What a "weird coincidence" of them. Haha. I know for the future not to waste money on quicker shipping. It's hard to figure them out for sure- maybe now you can use the 25% off card for something business related?
