Invitations the easy way

I started looking right away for our invites. I looked briefly into having them printed professionally, at a really nice print shop. But in the end, I really felt for the money saved, I would be just as happy with something ordered online.



First, I sent away to two different online invitation sites, and received samples of the invitations I liked the most. (all Disney themed- there are many Disney styles out there, try: now-and-forever.com and invitationsbydawn.com)

After seeing them in person, I had no hesitations. We ordered our final choice from invitationsbydawn.com, using a custom mash-up of the wording from several of my favorite invitations.

The invitation:

I love them - they came out even better than expected. The card pattern is called "Dreams Come True". It's Cinderella-themed:
