My MOH's Mum is doing mine so all I gotta do is buy her the card, paper, ribbon and buckles. She said she'd do it as my wedding pressie but i'm going to get her a rose for her garden to say thank you as she's green fingered and loves her garden x

Hmm mine seem ridiculously expensive compared to everyone else! Mine at all hand made by a lady from the book of face (she was the cheapest and the best quality I could find)... For day invites, evening invites, guest book, postbox and table names it's £215. Although I think we have over-ordered, luckily she isn't making them for another 6 months so we can reduce the number of invites we need xx

I beat you Sarah, I'm too lazy to make so I got 70 day, 30 evening and 30 save the date fridge magnets for £230. They are beautiful but when I see how little everyone else paid I feel a bit extravagant. I did order favour boxes to match from the same company and they were 25 for £3 but they are such a blinkin faff I'm going to get some that are easier to put together from the place that puts a little light in your box.
I can't wait until 29/06/2013
The day I marry the man of my dreams!

ive made mine and them and the favours have come to £50, (so 80 favours and 50 cards)
CommentAuthorsarahjo89
You ordered a lot of invites! We're only having a small do so only needed 25 invites for the day and 25 invites for the evening. But yep I'm also far too lazy to make them myself ha but looking at everyone else I'm like hmmm could have saved a lot of pennies! Xxx

I feel like I'm being rediculously extravagant now my save the dates are £1.70 each and invitations almost £6 each and I will need about 60 of each of those...and that's before I think about evening invites, place cards etc....looks like I may have to remortgage the house :p x

I've made mine and the cards, inserts and envelopes for 75 has cost £20. Bit more when you add on ink for the printer but I had some amazon vouchers so made good use of those and got cheap ink. I really think doing it your self is reall worth it. It was a bit stressful at the start deciding what sort of style to go for but after having a really good look around the good old internet it was easy to find lots of good ideas to re-create. When you add up how much you good save on buying them i'm all for a days work! x p.s it's even nicer to think when people compliment them it's your own work!! lol. xx

Ive got mine from a lady off the book of face and they are costing about 3 pound each for day and 2.50 each for evening but after months of trying to find what I wanted with no luck and having a go at making them myself (made about 20 lol) I think she is worth it as they are exactly what I wanted! Shes doing ALL my stationary for me :-)

I made my invites, rsvps and save the dates for about £60 and that 80 of each. It was I could have them the way I wanted them (control freak!! rofl) and I like sitting in the evening making stuff.
CommentAuthorsarahjo89
Lula the book of face lady has a selection already but she is constantly adding to her range, and she will mix and match any designs/details so they are perfect for you. I'm sure if you messaged her with an idea she could let you know if she could do it? Worth a shot! If you want her name let me know xxx
