[blackgreen]

Question mga sis regarding sa invitations. Okay lang ba na by email ko na lang ipamigay mga invite? Gumawa lang kami save-the-date and invite sa weddingchicks.com. Balak sana namin email na lang to lessen the costs.

[deathwatchspider]

^ we did an fb invite lang for our "young friends". especially yung sa mga malalayo. ok lang naman. 

[bzbee]

^ same here sis. we sent digital STD sa viber and facebook lang exactly 1 year before the wedding. we'll print a few invitations for primary sponsors, relatives and other elderly guests. sa friends digital copy na lang din or pag may extra papamigay namin dun sa gusto humingi ng copy

[blackgreen]

Thanks mga sis. Yun sa mga elders sa mga anak ko na lang siguro ipadala yun sa email.

[shygirlme]

Ako sis 30 lang pinaprint ko na invitation. Mostly PS at Abays lang meron. Tapos the rest FB message or emails namin sinend invitation. Gastos kasi tapos di naman nila itatago yun.

Very true... I always throw wedding invitations I receive no matter how pretty they are, or I write on the back of the cards sometimes as scratch paper.

I have to keep remembering this so I don't overspend on invites. I really just want sana letterpressed invitations, and hand-calligraphed. Sighhhhhh... Perhaps Ill still do full hand calligraphy but downgrade to thermograph printing. Especially since most people dont even know that difference between letterpressed, engraved, foil-stamped, and thermography. So why should I pay almost double per peice for letterpress printing just for my own satisfaction? Heheh only like 20 guests will even notice and appreciate the letterpress printing.

[Superjoie]

Any thoughts about cloth invitations?

Chili1113, I'm going all out on my invitations and paper goods haha. I know people will just throw it all out, but I love paper and I know it'll make me happy. It's a small percentage of the overall budget anyway, so I figure it's not that much in the grand scheme of things.

DIY lang invitations namin..im happy na medyo magaling din kasi mga friends ko sa mga kung ano anong design kaya they will help me.

Printsonalities quoted me 380/pc for the invites.  (That's what I'll consider too much siguro)  since I found a cheaper alternative, total expenses ko sa invites is 11,500 lang for 100 pc. (Design and printing included) I'm not sure if they will charge me extra if I requested our names to be embossed or engraved.  Letterpress super mahal na for me.

Whaaaaaaaaa... I can feel you sis!! I am so tempted to go all out with my invitations too =) To the point wherein I am seriously considering giving up my 1st choice coordinator to have extra budget for invitations. I dunno if that's even a smart thing to do but I am trying my very very best to not go overboard Haha

Well the reason why I am so tempted to do letterpress is because I found a supplier who can do it for almost half the price of Printsonalities... but I can't seem to justify paying more than 200 php for each invite. Hay... Bahala na!!!

^Just booked by invitations with Annasthetic Designs. They're not known at all but they had very close pegs to what I want my invites to look like and more importantly, they're only about P100 apiece, with envelope liner, envelope addressing, and seal na yan . No design fee pa and free gift tags for my souvenirs. I cannot yet recommend them any further than this because I haven't worked with them and no one seems to know them. Hehe.

I dont want to spend much on invites because personally no matter how nice it is I also always throw it out after What's important to me is just they are in line with the look that I want and the supplier is easy to talk to.

Passport with boarding pass samin sis, kasi h2b is working overseas. Sabi ko nga i wanted something classy lang, sabi nya he likes daw the passport so pagbigyan na kaya travel theme wedding na.
