Just get engaged and looking for wedding ideas? First of all, congratulations. What an incredible time this is, where you get to pick out all the things you dreamed of having at your wedding. Perhaps by now you have come to the realization that all those amazing things cost quite a bit of money. Sad, but true.

From flowers to cake to decor, not to mention the dress, weddings can be incredibly expensive. Many brides these days try to counter this problem by making as much as they can and cutting corners on some things that might not matter quite so much. When I first thought about homemade wedding invitations, I thought “no.” When I looked at the possibilities for DIY wedding invites, I was both surprised and inspired. Some of the most lovely invitations I have seen, (and I’ve looked at lots!) handmade invitations give an extra special touch to your celebration because you took the time to make them yourself.
