STD and Invitation Budgets

They are business card size but they are cute. I did postcards and magnets from Vistaprint for $90 total. We used our own picture for the postcard but one of their pics for the magnets... let me see if I have as picture for you...

Here are our magnets - they are business card sized:

I did my first save the date through Magnet street for about $150 and my postcards were about $70 from Kinko's, I did my own invites and probably spent around $300. Then postage makes that another $200 or so.

I used Prim and Pixie for my

save the dates. I am trying to take some cute pics to post. They were $2 ea. Also, they told me if I purchase invites plus save the dates and 2 other items (menus/programs) they would give me a discounted package price. Not bad IMO.

My STD magnets were about $65 for 75 magnets and looked like this:

They were about the size of a business card, very cute and totally reasonable.

My postcards to remember to rsvp to the STD website were $30 for 100 and also were better than I could have imagined for the price for sure. I designed them myself.

My invitations were priced individually at $4 each set and I totally love them, good quality, and very fast. I kept changing designs and fonts and got to see like 5 proofs before I chose the final one. I do calligraphy so I did my own on the envelopes.

I wouldn't spend too much for something most people throw away, but if you're big on having the best of things it may be worth it to you. My co-worker spent $12 per invitation and they were amazingly beautiful - it still ended up in the trash can though

I used VistaPrint as well for the STD and Postcards. 100 postcards, 80 large magnets, 100 envelopes and shipping for $70.

Postcard

All that for $80? That's great! Quick question about the postcard - I haven't heard about sending postcards. Is that something new? Are they for RSVP purposes?

I used the postcard as a way to have people save the date and check out our website. I've gotten a good idea of who's planning on coming who isn't based on conversations since the cards were sent. The formal RSVP will go out with the invites.
