Invitations and Coupons

Wedding invitations can get pricey, but my thrifty couple came up with a great money saving idea. Nicole made her invites by using a blank template from BRIDES, and a kit that she bought from Michaels.  Each kit included 30 cards, 30 envelopes, 30 response envelopes, 30 RSVPs, labels and flags.  Each kit was $39.99, and she found a coupon on-line for  40% off.  With the coupon the kit was about $25.00 each, which means she spent about 25 cents per card. She did spend a lot of time picking out the font she wanted and assembling the cards, but the price was worth the time.


If you are having trouble finding the time to make your own invitations, I encourage you to host a small party with your girlfriends and make them while drinking wine and listening to music. As I am sure you know already, women can get a lot done while drinking wine and talking.


If you are interested in making your own invitations I found some great websites that offer coupons and discounts.
