I bought my pocketfolds from cardsandpockets.com They recommended I use their zip dry glue, which I did, and it worked amazing! You just use a small amount (I did the border and a squiggle through the middle) then position it. You have about 10 seconds to move it into place before the glue holds. If you get any glue on places you dont want it (the nice side, hands, tables etc) just wait until it is dry and rub it with your finger. It will just roll off I dont know where else you can order this glue from, but you can order it directly from cards and pockets
I tried glue dots and found that they were very visible and created an unwanted rise on our invitations. Also, it is nearly impossible to reposition your piece once you have touched the glue dot to it. And when we put the invitation in the envelope the glue dots made noticable impressions in the paper.
double stick tape to attach the invite to the mat. removeable glue dots to attach the mat to the pocketfold. xyron to attach the top cardstock to the middle cardstock for the belly band. double stick tape to attach the middle layer to the back (which traps the ribbon between layers 2 & 3).

On other invitation projects, I've used an ATG tape gun with double sided tape - Really great as well
