I've always been a bit sceptical about VistaPrint, does the price reflect the quality, is the colour's the same on screen as printed etc etc so as you can imagine I was a bit worried about ordering from them but I did, I ordered my wedding invitation's last week but a few day's later I regretted it. I started to think they will be bad quality, the wrong colour and just look crap basically. It was really snobby of me but my invitation's are important to me, I think invite's set the tone of the wedding and give more information than just the time and date, they give an idea of colour scheme and how formal/informal it will be. So last night I spent a fortune on new invitation's. Paid extra to have them personalised and even more extra to have all the guest names printed. They are beautiful invite's, Steve and I love them and they are perfect quality, so we are happy with them. BUT and this is a big but, the vistaprint invitation's were delivered today and I could of cried when I opened the box. They are beautiful! The quality is outstanding, the colours are perfect and they just look great. I feel so stupid now! I rang my OH and told him but he's put his foot down, we have to stick with the invitation's we ordered last night. So that's that. I'm gutted I was such a snob about vistaprint because they are actually fab and I would highly recommend using them. I can't even use them for my menu's etc now as they won't match everything else I have ordered. Sucks! So ladies, please don't be snobby like me, if you find a design you like on VP go for it, order them, don't worry about how they will look because I'm sure they will look just as perfect as mine have turned out. It's a shame mine are personalised as I'd sale them otherwise!!

Could you call up and cancel the invitations you ordered last night? There should be a cooling off period or some way you could get a refund if they haven't started printing them.
CommentAuthorsarahwasabride

CommentAuthorsarahwasabride

CommentAuthorMrsMelodyWalker
Steve wont let me cancel the one's we ordered last night. He said we have to stick with them now, I am gutted but they are just as lovely. I just feel very silly about it!

I did only order 20 invite's just incase I wasn't happy with them, so I haven't wasted too much money or too much of them so it's OK. But they did send me 100 reply address stickers free! I will make use of them :-)

I just don't want anyone to be like me and be very snobby about VP, when they are actually really good! I know there's been a few threads about them, people questioning what they are like x

CommentAuthorMrsMelodyWalker
It's definitely worth it for the price. I was so wary of them and I really shouldn't of been! Oh well, atleast the new one's are beautiful. I'd be totally gutted if they weren't as good! x

CommentAuthorAli
All my invites, stickers and even h2b Story Book has come from Vistaprint, and i can't fault the quality of them whatsoever and everyone who has received the invites has been really impressed with them. See if you can cancel the ones you ordered last night, as a distance seller they have to give you a cooling off period. x
Happy to be Mrs Holt, love my husband and love the memories

We ordered our save the date magnets, invites and rsvp's from vistaprint - and were really happy with them. We're having our evening reception a few weeks after the wedding, and won't think twice about ordering the invites from them again.
