Vistaprint Question

kd1986

Has anyone used Vistaprint for their placecards at the wedding?  They have awesome prices, but if I want to type each guests name on them and order one of each, I don't see how it allows me to do that.  It's all in bulk.  Does this mean I have to order them blank, and print them myself at home somewhere?
Confused!

You cannot customize each one as the entire order must be the same.  So you would have to order them all blank and then write each name on each card.  Most likely any item you choose will be too small to fit through any printer so you would need to handwrite the information.  Plus the paper might be too thick for the printer.

I used blank business cards for placecards at the wedding.  I found a design I liked, then ordered them without adding any tex to them.  I wrote the names and table numbers on them and displayed them standing up on trays, held up by small rocks.

Here's a pic:
(This was towards the end of the night, so a lot of the cards are missing)

I used blank Avery business cards from staples and made my design in word. (Publisher will also only allow you to make a bunch of the same card.) I then glued my business cards to folded card stock.  They look great.  I have to figure out how to cross out names and I will post them.
