My bestfriend had her invitations made by Global Invitations last year. They were ok naman. Maybe nag-increase ng bongga ang volume ng orders nila this year kaya nagbago ang service.

Possible... in my case kasi, I emailed them 2nd week of Sept  regarding the datails of my wedding, then after 2 weeks i called them to asked for an update, then they told me after 2 weeks max they will send me my layout. Nung dumating na [textspeak!] day, wala rin akong narcieve na email , so awaited for a week again before i call them back, then she told me they will "try" to send it with in the week but unfortunerly wala pa rin, so i called them again to update, then after 3 days ata yun. they send me my layout. Then i called them to inform them i will drop by, para sa minor revison( like colors, and other minor details), kasi  ang tagal nilang sumagot ng emails, and evey time i called them parang parate namamadali. But they told me next week na lang kasi she is out na daw. Sabi ko khit secretary na lang kausapin ko thats fine. Kasi yun lang rin yunh available time ko. I just want see the actual color ng mga pwede kong pagpilian i only have very minor revision. Then she said okay. So pag punta ko doon nagulat ako she is there lang  pala talga. (note: Im not an OC type of person, as long as it looks good, then im good with it na). Then we talked, na sa mga revisons... Everything is settled na, then she told me she will just send me the final layout then if i gave them go signal na they print it agad na.. So i did what she told me. I waited again for thier reply, but like before, i didnt recieved any reply. I waited for a week before i call, then they told me just to email again, so i did what they told me, and finally i recieved an reply... I emailed them again, requesting them to text me or emailed me when i can get my invites. Kasi ang usapan namin i need it before ng 3rd week of dec Then again i recieved nothing. So ito nanamn ako, i called them again( 2nd week of dec na), with irritated voice, they told me to call back again after few days to check if i can get it na...so i did again what they told me...and finally im relief  the secretary told me i can pick it up....

Ayun... Fiy, nung pumunta ako doon for my minor revision, i waited for almost one hour and We talked only for less than 20 min

^ printcity is our invite printer. printer lang kasi i had my invites layout from somewhere else.

based from our transactions, hassle-free sila ka-deal. mostly all of our transactions were done thru email after booking them sa bridal fair. pero smooth tlaga. they reply promptly and so far wala kaming problema. our package had a free mockup and since malayo kami sa office nila, the owner suggested to have it sent via LBC na lang (charged to us symepre). as soon as i gave the go signal, the next day, i got my mock up na. 

in terms of price, id say they are one of the more affordable ones. pero quality ang gawa. matte print lang naman ang pinagawa namin pati we just got their very basic package. so mas nakatipid pa lalo. another thing, when we got them sa bridal fair, andun mismo yung owner ng printcity and he helped us choose the most value-for-your-money na package. katuwa lang, unlike other suppliers who will suck all of your money for all its worth, hehe.

right now, they are currently printing our formal invites, 100pcs. cant wait!

Thanks sis. i will wait na lang siguro sa next bridal fair nila. Yes mabilis nga sila mag reply. How much quote nila sayo?

Mga sis question lang paano ba ang gagawin ko if gusto ni h2b na ilagay sa invitation iyong name ng mother at brother nya na maghahatid sa kanya sa altar? Paano ang wording nun sa invitation kasi iyong final draft ko  is parang kami lang ni h2b ang nag-iinvite sa mga guest walang nakalagay na "together with our parents" since inisip ko na super matured individuals na kami at kami lahat ang gumastos kaya parang kami lang ang nag-invite pero it doesnt mean na itsa pwera sila ha. Kaso nga hayun gusto ilagay ni h2b iyong name ng mother nya at brother nya same with mine. Parehong mother at brother ang maghahatid sa amin sa altar. PLEASE help mga sis! TIA!

[danda]

^ sis ganito kaya..  Before sa names ng mga entourage ..

To walk with her down the aisle
<brother's name> - Brother of the Bride
<Mother's Name> - Mother of the Bride

hindi ko maisip ang word for groom. haha.

[sevenstars]

imprincessfiona, I agree with danda that the neatest way is to include them on the entourage card.

If your fiance really wants their names on the main card mismo, maybe you can try something like this? It's quite cluttered, unfortunately, but maybe you can refine it:

Jane and John
request the honour of your presence
as they walk down the aisle

together with their mothers
MOB and MOG
and their brothers
BOB and BOG

[mamey]

[jheajen]

Hello Ladies!

Merry Christmas, it's christmas and yet, I am busy with wedding preps, buti na lang kahit na busy month for suppliers, most of those na we asked to meet with were available.

Anyway, I would like to ask here, I need specialty papers/boards and envelopes for our invite. Kasi our supplier's envelope is too big for our passport invite, eh ayaw ko naman na kakalog kalog ang passport. May kilala ba kayo or know where to buy specialty paper, envelopes?

Thanks!

Thanks sis sevenstars! We decided not to include the names of our brothers, we put the name of our fathers instead. Our brother will act as proxy.

Any feedback po kay kenneth uy invitation?

[vitug.annie]

2 weeks to go it'll be my design schedule na with moki gray

[hallerski]

Any feedback po kay kenneth uy invitation?

sis, we got our invites from kenneth uy sa bridal fair.. wala pa samin ang print-out kaya di ko pa masabi.. pero sa bridal fair nila, maganda naman ang samples nila

[f878]

hello mga sis,
need your opinions/advice lang..

ok lang ba i-include ang ninong or ninang na hindi makakapunta sa invitations?
we want kase all our aunts and uncles on both sides to be our principal sponsors pero meron pa sa kanila na di sure kung makakauwi sa pinas on our wedding.
actually, kahit di man sila makauwi, gusto ko pa rin sana ilagay sa invitation yung name nila para kumpleto. parang off kase na lahat ng kapatid nila nakalista tapos may isang wala dahil di makakauwi..
ok lang ba yun mga sis?

[yannuh]

^ako sis if nasabihan mo na sila and umOK sila however biglang di makakapunta, lalagay ko pa din sila sa invite. Kasi parang me agreement na kayo na kukunin mo sila, regardless kung makakapunta sila or not. unless sila ang tumanggi na kunin mo sila as your primary sponsors:)

[jentotmd]

^^hi sis f8.yes ok lang yun.that's why yung iba nagpapa *proxy* kung hindi makakapunta. ako all my friend are listed as honor attendants, isa sa kanila bigla nagabroad for work.nakalist pa din siya.ü

[vitug.annie]

That's what I'll do sis.. I have sponsors who can't come but since I've notified them before, I'm happy to include their names parin on our invites

[f878]

thanks sisses yannuh, jentotmd and vitug.annie!
lahat kase ng principal sponsors sa side ni h2b ay manggagaling sa abroad so medyo up in the air pa kung sinu-sino ang makakarating pero i really want all of their names listed.

invitation detailing naman next month! weeee!
