How would you expect to pay for 100 personalized wedding invitations with envelopes, 100 matching reception cards and 100 matching response cards with envelopes? Depending on the invitation, that can be anywhere from $250-$700! How about all 500 pieces for $80? I know – how awesome is that?

I found this deal on Favors For You. They offer custom printed invitation sets with cards, rsvp cards and envelopes all printed to match. Below are a few of their snowflake designs, though they do have designs for any season.

The invitations are very simple – and make a beautiful invitation on their own but there are plenty of ways you can dress them up as well. Here are a few of my ideas:

1. Add a second layer – trim the invitation down on the sides, and then mount on colored cardstock for a 2 layer invitation. Very simple, and the cost would be about 25 cents extra per invitation depending on where you get the paper.

2. Add a 3″ wide strip of paper around the invitation and then wrap a ribbon with a bow around that (see a photo here). The extra cost would be about 30 cents per invitation, and would have stunning results.

3. Create your own folding invitation. Start with a 8 1/2 X 11 piece of colored cardstock. Place it landscape, and fold each edge in at 2 3/4″ – leaving a 81/2 x 5 1/2 space in the center. Attach the invitation in the center, then fold the side panels in to close the invitation. Close the invitation with a seal, ribbon, etc. Extra costs can be as low as 50 cents per invitation depending on what you use to seal it.

Those are just a few ideas, I am sure you can think of more:) Even if you do the folded version, with ribbon to close it, you are still only going to be spending $2 or less per set for your complete invitation set!
