Wedding Forum - How elaborate are your invites??...

My invites are quite simple and Im designing some at the moment for work, and I love them, but i dont know if they are too simple.

What sort of designs have people gone for??

I made my own kept them simple and ave tied them in with the rest of my wedding theme. I think simple is best make life easy for yourself! x

I love your invites! Did you cross stitch all of them? It must have taken you ages! xxx

You are mad!! lol I love cross stitch but never in a million years would I be able to do what you have done, it would have driven me mad! But they do look lovely, and I hope the guests appreciate how much time and effort has been put in to them, well done :D xxx

In my head, mines super elaborate, whether they turn out looking like a dogs dinner remains to be seen!

-is going to nosy at your invites-

i am crazy, but i gave myself plenty of time, and as OH works evening/lates once little legs goes bed, i pretty much have the whole evening to myself.

Even more crazy I am thinking of doing different designs in the cross stitch to sell through the business.

mine we quite simple we designed our own chocolate bar wrapper printed them off brought loads of galaxy cookie crumbles bars of chocolate took of there rapper leaving the foil rapper on then just wrapped our one round the chocolate and pritstick them back on.
they went down well with our guests !
Pic in my photos on the back we had are venue details asking guests to go to our website for more info and to RSVP.

I haven't done my invites yet, but done the save the date cards on a good site, which i Highly recommend it. will fill you in on my wall. oh and I will upload a pic of them once i get the hang of this. i'm pretty new here :) xx

These r mine, got a great deal 30 for £9.99 on the bay there all handmade but the sent me thm in the wrng ribbon colour should have been navy n i got royal blue instead so she redid my order so basically got 60 invites for £9.99! woop! i love ur invites! i did a lot of cross a couple of yrs ago when i had surgery n pretty much couldnt do anything else!!!! x x x

those are different, I love em

aurora theyre amazinng! x

Mine are super simple and super cheap. Quite basic ones from vista print. We're on a tight budget but even if we weren't I don't think I'd go too elaborate, it's just not my style.

Ours were quite simple and in the same design as our save the dates. We ordered both from Vista (not got a pic of the invites).

I really like your invites. They're unique because of the cross stitch. Id be chuffed to get one like that it shows a lot of time and effort went in to it x

Mine were elaborate! check out my album called Invitations! But my whole day is going to be elaborate! A real fairy-tale princess wedding, fireworks, live band and acoustic duo singers.

Everyone has loved them including people who weren't invited. they just wanted an invitation! It made us feel really chuffed! Everyone's really looking forward to coming to our wedding! Unlike our friends wedding on friday where a lot of our friends are just boycotting it because the lads didn't get invited to the stag do. at least ant and I aren't that horrid! I told Ant if anyone did that to us I'd kill them! xx we are still going to our friends wedding and we are looking forward to it

I only had the invitations I had because my parents have paid for everything! I'm very lucky! I'm sure yours are lovely GabyS xxx

You have your invites how you want them. At the end of the day they are card with info on them to tell me when and where etc. It doesn't matter how simple, fancy they are or how much money was spent. Its your day.
