Step 9All together now, all together now!
here's photos that represent what it looks like once they've received the invitation!
Be brave, get creative, and don't be afraid to break every single one of my guidelines.
Rules are made to be broken, and if you're particularly a colorful person, then power to you! Make your invitations rainbow colored for gods sake! It's totally up to you.
Most of all, have fun. This is a great project for you and your partner to take on, especially because of all the time you put in, and the more time you do put in, the more wonderful things you should expect from your wedding, and lifelong marriage.
Just one more thing:
After you receive your reply cards, make sure you start a chart and guest list (as if you didn't know that already) and what we did, was color code the separate groups of people that are coming: whether they are friends, family of the bride, family of the groom, family in japan, extended family, college friends, old friends... so on and so forth.
This will help with table placement and planning.
The whole process cost us about $75 for about... 150~175 invitations, which is a good amount cheaper than getting them from some invitation company.
What really was the cost breaker, was that it brought our families together, as we planned and put together invitations, planned location, times, table placements, activities and more. It brought us together which was more valuable than any of the money we saved.
Have fun!

I checked paper-source.com and the Petal Beet Envelopes alone costs $45 for a pack of 150.
