    I bought the kits from Michaels and I love them.  Super easy to put together and they looked perfect. :)

    I'll haven't purchased mine yet but I will be getting mine from Michael's as well. They are very reasonably priced, cute, and you can get coupons online or in the newspaper every week!

    We are considering Love, Jessica (http://www.lovejessica.com/) for our invitations.  She is located right outside of York, PA.

    we are going to try to make our own seeded paper- then design and make our own. We both love to garden and hes a chef- so we want to give our family & friends something to have at the start of our celebration-we are also going to try and make ALL the paper products in our wedding seeded, in order to also make the enviroment a better place ( figure invite, program, menu x200....thats a lot of paper being thrown away!)

    I went through Invitations by Chrissy in Mount Joy. She was fantastic.
    Her website:
    http://www.invitationsbychrissy.com/

    She custom designed a great invitation for me. (I can send you the PDF to view! PM me) She came up with a few ideas and we narrowed it down together. She e-mailed me her designs back and forth and let me tweak certain things.
    She runs her business from her home and it's not cheap (mine were up to $9-10 a piece but she can lower that with paper type, inserts, and the invite size.)

    I'm a graphic designer (with no time to design my own) so I was really picky and she was such a great help/did a great professional job!


    If you are looking for a cheaper alternative, I got my STDS from www.magnetstreet.com. They were really good!! The quality for the price was great. I think they have better quality than www.vistaprint.com. Don't let the name fool you, they also have invites and not just magnets.
    One last thought, my co-worker used someone from Etsy.com to do her invites too. They turned out great too! Just make sure you get a sample before you order.

    E & K Printing in Lancaster did DD#1's invitations.  Met her originally at a bridal show- she had unique invites at good prices. Will most likely go there for DD#2 as well.

    My daughter used Tipperary Square in Campbelltown. It was too hard to look online. We wanted to see the invitations, compare them side by side and have someone to talk to about our choices. Making our own seemed way too much trouble. We had a great experience at Tipperary Square. Harriet is so sweet and patient. She never complained when we sent the proofs back numerous times for revisions.

    I'm making my own using Mountain Cow softare with cardstock purchased from Cards and Pockets.  I didn't think I'd be into the paper products but it has been so cool to make my very own, unique invitations.  Plus, since I'm doing the pocketfold style I'm saving myself tons of money.

    I ordered mine from Zazzle.com. I found a design I loved and worked with the woman who originally made the design and she helped me with the fonts and even helped create a Mad-Libs style RSVP card...the quality was nice and I even got custom stamps to match!

    It's been fun getting the response cards back!
