How to get ready for your wedding invitations

The first step is to get organized. Don't forget when we suggested a folder earlier? This is where it comes in especially handy! Start by making a list of the people you just can't stand to get married without them there. This will probably be mostly relatives and close friends. Ask your parents and the groom's parents to provide you with a list of who they would like to invite. Make sure you have accurate addresses for your guests.

One suggestion here: don't think you Have to invite everyone you know. If you haven't talked to your senior high school lab partner since graduation, he or she probably doesn't need to be invited. And don't get all caught up in possibly offending someone by not inviting them to your wedding.

Often, people get sick of attending weddings for people they barely know. Unless you talk to them every day, chances are pretty good that they won't give it a second thought when your invitation doesn't arrive. Don't forget, you're trying to save some money on your big day. Extra people means extra expense - cut corners here.

Anytime you have your guest list, you'll have an idea of how many invitations you'll need. Next, you'll need to pick a design.

Wedding invitations shouldn't be a big expense for you. Yes, when it's delivered all pretty in its customized envelope and small tissue square inside, it can make an impression - for about a minute! Most people read it as soon as, note the date, take out the RSVP card and throw the invite away. So why spend a lot on them? Remember, we're trying to save money here!

The obvious thing to do with your invites is to create them yourself on your personal computer. You can take Microsoft Word to create beautiful invitations that are ALL you!

There also are inexpensive programs out there specifically made for creating invitations and greeting cards. The best part about purchaseing programs like this is being able to use it again after the wedding is over! I've had this program save me many times to print out a special occasion card (Birthday, Anniversary) at the last minute if I've forgotten!

You can buy heavy card stock at any office supply or discount store. Consider some pre-printed stationery which is also available at most office supply stores.

Not really hyped up on using up all your printer's ink on your wedding invitations? Take them to a specialized copy store or office supply store. They can usually copy onto whatever paper you want (heavy card stock, pre-printed, etc.) and in color if you choose.

You could also print out simple text of your invitation then use rubber stamps or embossing powder to decorate them. Keep in mind, though, the number of invitations you'll need to embellish. If you're looking at a few hundred, you could be up nights just decorating them!
