The next big to do thing with us is invitations. I've been looking on-line and I've gone to the store to look at a million books. Basically I have not found what I am looking for at all. I want an invite that goes with my theme (winter) and is pretty. I'm not totally looking for budget invitations, but I don't want to spend an arm and a leg either. I can not make them myself either. I don't want to and I'm so unartistic it is out of the question. This is the closest thing I've found to what I am looking for. If I don't find something else soon I'll use this. The wording will be in red ink if I get this one.

Does anyone else know of any other winter themed invitations that they could point me to before I make my decision?

weddingsbydawn.com
type winter into the search bar once you access invitations

This should help, they have quite a few...I'll keep looking for you!

I found a few I thought were kind of pretty. I was trying to keep with your theme.

These are off of www.invitationsbydawn.com (http://www.invitationsbydawn.com) :

Just so you know, when we did our invitations they didn't have ANY of the wedding colors on them and we got so many compliments on just how beautiful they were.

Good luck, although you still have awhile yet...we didn't get ours until just after Christmas.

Thanks everyone for the input. I've looked on invitations by dawn and have not found exactly what I'm looking for there. I'm picky I know. They have some really great fall invites though. That is what I seem to find. I ordered a sample of that one with the red trimming and I didn't like it in person. I am going to check out the mypersonalartist.com site now and see what I find. I like that sparkly invitation.

I was going to give rep points to Becky and say that I loved that one too! It is very pretty!

By the way Kacie, you're allowed to be picky...you're the bride! Good luck!

Let me know what you think. The wording would be in red and the lining of the envelope would be in red instead of that taupe color.

What color would the snowflakes be? I really liked that one with the sparkles in the paper, you didn't like that one, Kacie?

The snowflakes would be that same color. I really like the one with the sparkles on the paper too, but it was more than I was willing to spend on invitations. I have to buy at least 150 of them so the price is a big deal. These with all the envelopes and the reply cards and shipping included will run under $400. I have ordered a sample and I will see if I like the samples as well as I like the pic on-line.

You could send out fall invites. I've seen some really great ones. Have you already ordered yours yet?
