Any advice for cheap invitations, DIY ideas or printing costs for copies of...

Vistaprint! X

Make your own and use The Range for supplies :)

Definitely vistaprint

I made
My own & bought all the bits off eBay came to about £20

My partner and I designed our own invitations and save the dates and used printed.com. Cannot fault them, they did an excellent job. I also got most of my design inspiration from Pinterest

Just ordered ours through vistaprint! Received our save the date cards today and very impressed with my design work, look great and fab price!

I used zazzle.co.uk for invitations for my son's birthday party. They arrived in 5 days and were very good quality. I paid about just under £15 for 10 invites. You can choose different papers and different finishes,and you can change the wording to suit you

Vistaprint! Really great quality, pretty designs with envelopes... ordered 70 for about 55 pounds.

I made my own, got all the stuff in poundland lol! Printed wording off and cost us £15 all in

I spent ages trying to find a company who would do hot foil type invites for a reasonable cost, as one of our colours is copper. If you want letterpress/ hot-foiled invites you'll probably be looking to spend £350 upwards depending on quantity but I found a lovely lady who does something called digital foiling and it was amazing! You have to have it printed onto white but we had ours backed in another of our colours and couldn't be happier - we paid just a shade over £200 for 25 day/ 25 evening/ 35 RSVP/ 35 info cards plus envelopes. I know it's not cheap but a fabulous 'budget foil' option :) www.thegoldenletter.co.uk xx

We used eBay and they are beautiful. Not expensive at all xx

my mum made our invites from different pastel coloured card (our theme) and used some lace of her dress :) i just uses word to write info on and printed them and stuck in :)

I got mine from hobby craft , brilliant price xx

Amazon has a good range and aren't too expensive at all

I ordered mine from Vistaprint. It cost £30 for thirty invites. I used a template and uploaded my own images. They also have save the date and thank you cards

I bought some templates from etsy, you can change the wording and print it for yourself :) xx

We made ours

We used Vista Print - cheap as chips and they looked nice x

I had mine made by someone on ebay, cost £30 for 150 invites (day and evening) and some rsvp cards

I have designed my own in canva.com and then printed them on optimal print.
Depending on what you want you can design your own on optimal print also about 25.00 for 40 invitations xx

I used this site free templates and you save as PDF then print them off on card

I made my own. Designed on publisher, printed then added ribbon etc. Super easy and super cheap xx

Noah's nuptials did ours and they were amazing and such a good price x

I was told about an app called freeprints. You get 30 free prints a month from it and all you have to do is pay postage. So I used a picture from mine and my fiancé's engagement photoshoot (it can be any picture not necessarily a professional one) and edited it with "we're getting married so save the date" at the top, our names bottom right and the date on the left side of the picture. It cost me £1.99 to get them posted to me. I then bought a pack of card off ebay for £1.50, a reel of ribbon in the range for 99p and 100 charms (ones that suited our theme) off ebay for £1.99. I already had a hot glue gun but you can buy them for £5 in Hobbycraft. So in total it cost me £6 to make 30 save the dates! (we've got a lot more guests but this is how many it works out for by only sending one to each family!)

So £6 for the save the dates, aiming on £10 for the actual invites! :-)

You can get everything you see in a craft shop, online for a lot cheaper so don't be afraid to look around :-)

Vista print and 40% off at the moment. They're also super helpful on the phone. Just make sure you go for matte paper not glossy otherwise it curls

I ordered all the bits off the website below and then made them with my best mate. There's templates on there which enabled me to print the invites at home on the pre-cut cards I ordered from them. It's not as cheap as some people on here, and I wanted to do it cheaper but work got too busy and it's still several hundred cheaper than ordering professional ones. Good luck! http://www.pocketfoldinvites.co.uk/

I've ordered mine from www.pureinvitation.co.uk - they're sending me all the bits after I designed them on their website, printing my inserts for me, and then I'm assembling them myself :) I got free RSVP's on their special offer too!

Hobbycraft

Etsy have loads of fab ideas mine came from there and weren't expensive. X

Vistaprint! They are pretty awesome x

I bought mine off eBay. Seller is littlexmissxclare paid £88.50 for 85 full sets of these invites with an extra 15 RSVP cards. The man is incredible, so patient and kind and was brilliant when I had a spelling mistake - sent me full replacements for free when it was my fault!

We printed save the date style invites via Vista Print (50 for £20) and then designed a wedding website on the knot.com for free and included on the invites the website address and that our guests need to RSVP via that. Saved us a load of money and it allowed us to include loads of travel and accommodation (links to local hotels/taxi companies) as our venue has no accommodation and is in the middle of nowhere.

I used a site called Greetings Island where you can design and print your own from their templates. Then stuck them on card with some ribbon.

Echoing many others - Vistaprint! Don't forget to go through Top Cashback and make some money from your wedding

Got my printables from TK Maxx, obvs it's always a gamble as to whether they have your colours, or enough in stock, but I got lucky, so it's worth looking

Forget me not designs amazon, really pretty and she was very prompt

Vistaprint are doing 40% off invites/save the dates etc at the moment x

We bought the card part from Ebay (£4.80 for 150!), decorated them with ribbon from a local fabric shop, and made the inserts with information, RSVPS etc. ourselves. All printed and assembled at home so costs were minimal, just paper, printer ink, and extra strong pritt stick :)

We got our save the dates for http://www.occasionsinvitations.com/ they are brilliant and very cheap!

Vistaprint

for my invites we just brought brown card and made the invites on Microsoft Word. we took images from the Internet they looked amazing and where cheap to make and print of

Vista print. I did up 50 invites with inserts and envelopes for abut 100 quid

Made my own, used a site called weddingchicks to create the information inside and the rsvp cards. You input the information and download and print it yourself. Very cheap. And easy to do.
