DIY Wedding Invitation Kits

Simple Homemade Wedding Invitation Ideas

DIYWedding Invitation Kitsare one of the easiest and biggest ways to save moneyon your wedding.

Not only are they great for saving money. The other great thing is that you can make something really beautiful and really personal at 1/2 the cost of purchasing it

Starting With a Base Design

Papeterie

Papeterie is my personal favorite for diy wedding invitation kits! They're a bit more expensive than what you can get at the local business supply store, but given the quality and design they're also MUCH less expensive than what they would be if you were to have the made for you.

They also provids TONS of personalization options in terms of card stock color, fonts, ribbon color, and motifs. They make it very easy to make the invites your own while still being high quality and easy to do.

Local Business Supply Store

We actually purchased our invites this way and personalized them with Japanese Paper. We thought it was the cheaper solution, but, with the cost of the Japanese paper it probably would have cost us the same amount to get them from Papeterie. If you're fine with something really simple or can find one of the invite kits that include ribbon, this is probably the most affortable solution.

Creative Wedding Invitation Ideas for Simple Business Supply Invite Kits

Interesting Paper

Specialty paper stores carry lovely hand paper papers like Japanese paper! Scrap-booking stores do as well! A small panel of paper in your theme color is a stylish, yet simple and inexpensive way to personalize your invite.

Unique Fonts

Using a unique font is one way to make your invites really unique and beautiful. The font to the left is called Mascara and several of our friends commented on how much they liked it. Go to www.myfonts.com where you can pick from thousands of fonts!

The Professional Touch

Invest in the appropriate supplies!

Get Eyelets for ribbon holes

Get a sharp exact o-knife and cutting board

Use a Glue Runner (like dry white-out, but glue)

Use a stamp on your closing seal

Ribbon

Perhaps the most common way to personalize invites is ribbon. If the kit comes with a white ribbon and your wedding is blue and brown, head off to the nearest fabric or ribbon store. Don't know how to tie a ribbon, get pre-tied ribbon!
