Reception Stationary

MonBon2011

I'm looking for designs to use in my reception for placecards, menu cards etc. Does anyone know of any site that caters to Indian weddings? I know wedding paper divas has some cute designs, but it's a bit expensive. I'm looking for a design that is indian-inspired yet modern.

thanks!!

I usually just go to the microsoft site and look for templates, or make my own -

I did find some places that inspire -

Menu cards: http://www.musthavemenus.com/category/indian-menus.html

DIY it - http://diy.weddingbee.com/category/menus

If you have a JoAnns or a Michaels or a craft store, take a look at their card stock and see if they have some inexpensive card stock with henna motifs

This instructions is my absolute favorite, and so very easy to do, and the possibilities are endless!!!!!

Also you can design something and upload it to Vistaprint. I did some custom things for a Charity Event that way. It all turned out wonderful (Invites, Donation cards, RSVP, and programs) plus I knew they were custom and all matching.

Thanks girls..this is helpful. Only thing is that I'm not very creative..not much of a DIY person. I don't have the patience and I'm pretty sure I'll ruin it! I'm willing to try though. Quick question - if I go the VistaPrint route, are you able pick thicker paper stock?

You could always try to find a vendor on Etsy that would be willing to put something together for you. I have heard of a few girls who have done this with great results. Search around to see if you find something you like?

I think the vista print route you can request thicker card stock....
