So you’ve done all of your planning for your big day, and all you have left to choose are your wedding invitations. You’re excited, but the only problem is… you’ve spent most of your budget, you don’t have much left, and all the invitation designer you’ve visited are quoting you $8-10 per set! If you’re finding yourself stuck in this position, read on for a few tips you can use to bring your cost down:

1. Paper Choices – There are lots of beautiful papers out there, and if you’ve got a paper fetish like we do, it’s difficult to choose just one or two! But if you inform your invitation designer of your budget, she’ll steer you in the right direction of papers that are in your price range. Stick to the non-metallics. If you want something that has a little something extra, a matte (non-metallic) paper with a bit of texture to it often does the trick.

2. Size – if you just can’t find a matte paper that suits your style, the other option is to put together a set that’s a little smaller than the standard 5″ x 7″ size! Some brides like how concise and neat a 4 x 5 invitation looks, and you can get more pieces out of a sheet which requires less paper cost!

3. Printing Method – Letterpress invitations are absolutely stunning, and everyone would love to be able to use this printing method for their invitations, but … you guessed it… it’s out of your budget. Letterpress invitations are individually hand-printed, and each piece is unique, so your invitation is basically a work of art. But a good invitation designer can come up with something equally unique and beautiful by incorporating unique and beautiful design elements into the physical pieces. Maybe a pattern printed on your cards? Maybe adding a few rhinestones would give it a little sparkle? For budget-conscious brides, digital printing is the way to go.

4. Amount of Paper – Eco-friendly doesn’t necessarily always have to be expensive. Ditch your response card in favour of an online RSVP, and you’ve also ditched the expense of the extra 2 pieces (card & envelope to match). Or, if you must have a response card of some sort, what about a postcard? No extra cost of an extra envelope, and you’ve just saved yourself around $0.50 per set!

Ladies, shop around! You don’t need to sign with the first invitation designer you meet, especially if they don’t fall within your budget. You do realize that you get what you pay for in some regard, but that doesn’t mean you’re stuck with the DIY kits from your local craft store (which often amount to more stress that it’s worth)! A good invitation designer will be able to understand your budget and be able to offer an attractive and unique solution to fit in your ideal price range.
