Re: What is an average invitation price?

I spent about $1400 for 125 invites

mine have ribbon- it cost extra for the ribbon plus for the ribbon to be tied

with the names being printed on the envelopes, hotel cards and matching place cards- the total will be a little over $2000

Re: What is an average invitation price?

just wanted you to have another opinion so you know it doesn't have to be another $1,000 (everything seems to be $1,000 and that adds up!), we spent $300 for 125 beautiful, simple invites and they had response cards, reception cards, return address printed, colored ink, etc.

Re: What is an average invitation price?

I decided on envelopment style invites and opted to assemble them myself. I ordered the inside printed invitations and enclosure cards from Invitations by Dawn then layered in onto cardstock and then the pocketfold. So I spent about $600 for 125 invitations with all the seals (2 sets), inner and outer envelopes, invite, enclosure cards, backing cardstock, pocketfold, and mini glue dots. (This would have cost me at least $800 if I opted to have them made and assembled the way I wanted)

I also saved money by printing the inner and outer envelopes myself with a fancy calligraphy font on my computer.

Postage cost an extra $121.25:
$.60 for each invite and $.37 for each return address.

Re: What is an average invitation price?

depends what kind, how many (sometimes the more you order, the cheaper it is per invite) and if you count all the parts. are you also wanting to included calligraphy? and postage?
