    We got ours from Seven Swans They are based in South Africa but the shipping was super fast. They worked out cheaper than getting them here and they included rsvps as well and we got so many compliments on them as they were so unusual. They're really happy to work with you and come up with something perfect.

    Thanks so much. I'll check them out!

    I got ours from Nowyouprintwedding.ie and was very happy with them. I got 100 postcard style with envelopes for €80 and delivery by courier was free. They're based in Kilkenny I think. I didn't get RSVP cards cos I put a number for texts and email address on the invite but you can get them too if you want them

    Haven't ordered ours yet but after looking at a lot, we're probably going to go with Appleberry Press. Gorgeous designs, but a bit on the pricey side. They do a nice thing where if you pay €10, they'll send you five samples of their designs (you pick the ones you want). This was really helpful for us in deciding.

    Good look choosing! I'm really enjoying picking the stationery (oh god, what has my life become...).

    Nice??
    In any line of business, the company should be bending over backwards to provide free samples / proofs to let the client choose their final one.
    I'd ensure to get the €10 back before you order.
    Yet another example of how businesses take the p*ss with weddings.

    Meh, I liked it, and I haven't seen any other company offering samples (for free or otherwise!). They included loads of little things like colour charts, paper textures and thickness, stuff like that, which were helpful in deciding on the final invitations.

    Thanks for all the suggestions. . Plenty to look through. . Guess what I'll be doing this weekend!?

    I have been looking at this place http://www.jjshouse.com/

    I can not find any reviews except for those on line but they seem to be pretty cheap with print included. Only thing is you must go with what they have. I was all up saying that I would make them and due to not being able to find reasonable priced pocketfolds, I was like mmm.. But maybe planning to get something simple in JJS and then decorate after..

    Is your wedding close or in a while. As id say we will be getting a batch to see if they are good but it would be next month or november

    We got ours from Bride and Groom Direct. They've got a sale on at the moment with as much as 50% off. You can probably Parcel Motel them over as it costs £20 to send here direct, and just 6.95 to send in the UK.

    Oh - and they'll send you two free samples! :D

    How about Minted.com ? Ordered samples from them and they are gorgeous and arrived super fast. Also got two lovely custom notebooks from them. Lovely quality.

    We used Appleberry Press as already mentioned in another post. Yes it was a little expensive but they were lovely to deal with and our invites were beautiful and got a lot of compliments. I will be returning to them for our Thank you cards.

    I can't recommend Daintree paper on Camden Street in Dublin enough. The staff were beyond helpful at all times, super quick with any email queries and best of all the price was WAY cheaper than anything in the places in my local town. We ordered self assembly invites and got daintree to print and cut them. still worked out at less than 2 euro an invite
