My fiance has just nearly finished making our own invitations. As we were having an intimate wedding it seemed pointless spending lots of money on invitations. In fact we wanted scrolls and we only needed 10, we were quoted $1600 for 50 invitations, so my fiance has been working so hard making them, although he has had to make only 10 it has taken a long time, but trust me it is worth it, and I think it will be wonderful to look at them in years to come and think we made them, or should I say he made them!!
He has made them in a wooden box and has padded them out so that the scroll sits inside. He has put mickey mouse confetti inside the boxes and printed it on silk cotton paper. The best bit is the top of the box which says our names and fairytale wedding. I suggest you try making them...trust me you wont regret it.
