Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
It depends on the paper, the design, etc. but that sounds pretty average.

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
it all depends - what are the invites you are looking at?
I am going with a involved invitation (pocketfold) and I will be paying about $450 for 100 invites.
They can be much less expensive though...

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
You can honestly spend anywhere from $150 to over $1500 on 125 invites, it just depends what you want.
Ours was $800 for 150.
Ed: I posted the rsvp, not the invitation accidentally.

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
I'm with eagora, mine were 700 for 100 invitations, and we were told that was middle of the road, so honestly they run the gamut in price range

IF you love it, get them...we weren't shown anything under 500 dollar per 100 and I was a bit pissed, but it was the place we went to, a storefront in my town, we didn't want the hassle

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
I paid $150 for 100 invitations - mine were simple yet elegant and I received many compliments on them. Julz33 raved about Uptown Downtown shopping so I used them too. Very happy with price, delivery and service!

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
Yikes! Now I think we spent too much, around $600 for 150. Oh well it's all done or in progress and it took us forever to find an invitation we really liked. Jean

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
To make you all feel a bit better I work with a girl who is getting married in Aug, and she spent over 2k on hers. She knows she got completely ripped off, but her mother in law was in charge of it, so she can't say anything

Invite price varies greatly based on thickness of paper, kind of paper (handmade, natural fibers, fabric, machine made, etc.), printing style (flat printing, thermography, engraving, letterpress, etc.), quantity and so on...
I definitely say order samples first. There were some I loved online and hated once I felt it in person. Tey www.easiestwedding.com, they have all the online retailers (Rexcraft, American Wedding Album, Elaine, etc.) in one place.
Good luck!

Re: What is the average cost of say 125 invitations??
As stated above, it all depends on the quality of the invitation. I'm looking at less expensive invitations, so we're looking at spending $300 or so for $175 invites. I'm using UptownDowntown wedding too.
