Simply Inviting

If you are getting engaged soon, newly engaged, saving the date or looking at wedding invitations, today's GROUPON may be for you! 


They have a great selection of reasonably priced announcements and invitations (a lot include photos! Yay!), but they also have Photobook options. It's $15 for $50, which is unbeatable, especially if you're looking at invitation-y things. 
If you prefer a more "Traditional" invitation, I also looked around on Friday for Invitation sites that offer reasonable prices AND free invitation samples. Invitation samples give you an idea of different types of paper, styles of invites, what the colors look like in person and what design will work best for you and your wedding style. Invitations should reflect the formality of the wedding, but, there's a lot of options out there for both formal, semi-formal and casual events. It's good to look around and get a feel for what you like and don't like. Samples are also great for inspiration and guidance for those brides looking to D-I-Y!

I may have around 50 invitation samples heading to my mailbox, but, it's for research (for this blog and also for my D-I-Y-I hopes and dreams).

The American Wedding (also includes some favor sample offerings!) - Up to 5 Samples

RexCraft - Up to 3 Samples

Invitations by Dawn - Up to 3 Samples

Invite Site  - Send one type of invitation collection, also able to send swatches for ceremony programs

Invitations Galore  - Different Sample rules apply to different products. Read restrictions carefully.

123 Print  - Up to 3 Samples

Ann's Bridal Bargains  - Up to 5 Samples

Exclusively Weddings  - Up to 5 Samples

Jean M  - Up to 3 available by E-mail Request Only

David's Bridal  - Up to 3 Samples


Invitation samples are, of course, not personalized with your information, but, once you receive your samples, if you find something that you like, it is usually between $2 and $3 to request a personalized sample. Not too shabby!
