custom invitations are easier to come by than they once were. It’s no longer necessary to flip through a large book of invitations to choose your style, colors, paper and wording. Now, those same printers and stationery outlets or online printers offer hundreds of different options that can be quickly viewed online.

If you’re on a tight budget or simply want the best price possible, you’ll find cheap wedding invitations advertised online. If they offer to send you a free sample, take them up on it so you can feel the quality of the paper and printing. This is one of those routes that is definitely easier taken when you have a referral from someone who used a company with success.

To save time and expense, self inking stamps are good for return addresses on any custom invitation but can also add a unique flavor or create interest. We don’t often receive mail stamped ‘Confidential’, ‘Private’, ‘Top Secret’ or ‘PARTY!!’

If you use stamps, definitely go the route of the self inking stamps for ease and less mess. They also give a more consistent ink stamp to your invitation and don’t have the faded look of an ink pad stamp.
