I think usually some companies will send you samples of the ones you wish to order. THat's what my DH and I got when we were trying to pick and we basically ordered ours off the internet too! Wait...yes we did! lol. It was over a year ago and like I said, you can request samples and they'll send them right to your home! ;) (most companies!)

I ordered mine online and it was fine. I went to several stores and looked at the books that they had. I picked out my invites from there. Then I went online, found them at 35% less than the store,and ordered them.

I am thinking about getting them online, I found a company on Ebay who will send me a free sample first, and then if I want to order the rest I can

If you are ordering from one of the big names like Carlson Craft or Regency, you should be able to go somewhere local and see them. Then like Lacey said, you can often find them online for a little less.

Many other places will send samples and/or have detailed pictures and descriptions. I've know ppl that ordered online with good results. I would just research the company first, especially on eBay.

Good luck!

My advice is to defiantely get samples. I ended up ordering mine from a store, but I was going to buy some on-line. It just worked out better for me to do it at a store with a bridal fair discount I got. I know when I was looking on-line some looked great on the computer, but once I got the sample they were horrible. It also goes both ways. The one I ended up selecting from the store I had seen on-line and I passed it up. The picture did it no justice.

I was worried about this too. I found a lot of them that I like, but am afraid that they won't turn out the way I want them too.

I ordered mine online because I fell in love with them and they went fabulously with my theme. Well...when tey came I was disappointed because they were smaller and the paper was not as heavy as I would have liked...but now I love them and everyone has said that they are great and loves them. I would definitey get a sample first!!!

I can't even remember. I don't even remember who made mine. I think they might have been Regency. If you just type Regency into a search engine, a billion vendors will pop up. You can price compare from there.

My step mom is a photographer and she took our engagement pictures. We used our favorite picture,( a side shot of us leaning against a tree gazing at the lake done in a sepia tone) as our cover, at the bottom we put the quote, love is not love untill you give it away. We did a note card from Future shop, which we had to order online. But I just ordered one to make sure i liked it, then I ordered the rest after.

I have ordered samples from a online store and I love them!! They sent me samples first in any color I wanted but I did have to pay for them. Hopefully it is ok if I post where I am getting mine. cardsandpockets.com

I found this on the Regency link on this site and I love it! I should really stop looking for more invites because I'll always find something else I like:
