Re: I'm sure this has been posted before but...how much did you spend on invitations?

175 engraved invites w/inner and outer envelopes
175 engraved response cards w/envelopes
175 engraved informal note cards w/envelopes
25 extra inner and 25 extra outer envelopes

It all came out to a hair less than $700. We got the extra envelopes in the event that there is an error in calligraphy. Mind you we got a 40% discount on the invites. With the engraved invitations, we needed it. They cost more to start with.

My aunt's sister does invitations, so I got them wholesale. Mind you, they were super simple. I paid $350 (wholesale price) for 125 invites.

I spent about $1500 for 150 invites

That price includes my inner and outer envelopes, the calligraphy by artistic addressing and the custom maps I had made.

I got the invites for 30% off at LA Productions.
