Wedding Invitations

I LOVE pretty wedding invitations and I kind of have an idea about what I want for our wedding, but i'm not 100%. For this reason, I have recently started ordering some sample invites from websites.

I received one lot of samples today from Exclusively Weddings in the USA.

I had ordered 3 samples from them, all of which were free.
Unfortunately, I did have to pay for the postage to Australia.


This invite was sheer. I think it is okay, but not right for me.




I love the pocket in this invite for the extra cards, I think it makes it look clean and stops the extra cards falling out.
 I am also a huge fan of ribbon.


 This invite is really cute and different, but I don't think it will go with our theme.


All in all, Exlusively weddings make good quality invites and they are so much cheaper than those from Australia.

Unfortunately, none of them are exactly what I am after.

Lucikly, I still have a long time until our wedding :)
