DIY Wedding Invitations .......Doing It Yourself

Wedding invitations can be a little pricey. If you are on a serious budget, you may want to consider making your own wedding invitations. There are many do it yourself wedding invitation kits that you can find at many stationary stores. These kits make nice invitations.

As indicated in a few of my other pages, I am not the creative, crafty type. If I had to choose between making something and buying it....You got it, I would choose the latter, if my budget permits. However, I have seen beautiful invitations made by my sister who is very creative. She created a very beautiful invitation with regular white and colored card stock. She used ribbon to bind the two card stocks together to make a beautiful invitation. The ribbon on the invitation coordinated with the colors of the wedding.

Do it yourself invitations tend to add a personal touch to the occasion. They are appropriate for most weddings except one that is very formal.

Whether you decide to buy...like me, or do it yourself, make it enjoyable. Choosing invitations should not be the stressful part of this event.
