Invitations by Dawn

Have you ladies used them? I just got their catalogue yesterday and they have gorgeous invitations. I might have read that a couple of you have used them! Did you order them online or did you fill out the form? Which is easier? Thanks!

I got their catalogue in the mail too... not even sure how! Basically, it looked to me like they carry a lot of the big invitation vendors, including the one my invitations are from. So, I don't know about their prices or service, but the vendors are some of the big boys, not no-name things you might (or might not) be disappointed with. Given the choice, I always prefer ordering online to in the mail, but that's just me. :)

Thanks to your post, I think I may have found my invitations! LOL, Still a ways away, (and now it may be a spring instead of fall wedding) but still love the variety. Prices seem reasonable too. I prefer ordering things online. Too many things get "lost" in regular mail. Is the catalog free? I should order one. I couldn't tell if Save Date cards are in there too, but I may still go with magnets for those. Any opinions on the second inner invite envelope? I can't see paying an extra $50, but if it looks tacky without, I'd like opinions. Thanks. ;-)

tammy- they have save the date cards too and other things like bridal gifts, groomsmen gifts. They will send you a free catalogue if you request it. I probably got mine because I am on theknot.com. I don't think I am doing the second inner envelope. Half of my invites will be hand delivered (Cambodian tradition)anyways.

I'm actually proofing the envelope addressing as we email. I'm just doing the outer envelope because my invites have a pocket folder so I couldn't see why I would want to put the invitation in a folder in an envelope and then in another envelope. I highly recommend my vendor, Earmark Invitations. (www.earmarkinvitations.com) Bridgette has been wonderful to work with. They aren't cheap but the invites are unique.

sok23, Thanks for the info. I should request one. I'm glad that you and kelli both think the second inner envelope isn't needed. (I agree, just needed validation from smart ladies out there ;-) I think the hand delivery is very cool, wish I could do that, but no one coming to my wedding even lives in this state!

It's a hassle but it's one of the traditions that I am looking forward to. Tammy- I hope that during your trips in August you will get your ring =)

Kelly, I love that website for earmark. Those are the most unique and original invitations I have seen.

Sok23- Thanks, I'm hoping too!

Julie-Actually, we're thinking Fall of 2007 at the latest Spring of 2008 (March) I hope that's enough time to save money and plan!
