… the vintage Savannah postcard! They’ll be customized with our information on the back, a circle around the square we’re getting married at in the front, and will be super easy to send (just a stamp, and they’re off!).
The voting was very close between the Funky & Fun STD, and this one. In fact, the Pose Print came in first with 40%, while the postcard garnered 38% of the votes. I really appreciate everyone helping me make a timely decision.
I ended up going with this choice for a few reasons. First off, I was already leaning towards it before the voting even began. I just wanted people to ease my mind on the idea of such a different STD. Then, I found out right after I wrote the post that the seller was willing to negotiate the price! As soon as I found them on Etsy, I sent a message to let her know that I was on a tight budget, and she wrote back to say that because I was ordering so many, she could offer them at $.85 each! So, that definitely helped seal the deal.
Finally, some of you gave me a good idea as to how to essentially have all three designs throughout the wedding process! I get the postcard for the STD, I can use the Pose Print for a shower or party invite (which does seem more appropriate), and I can use the damask print for the actual invites and other wedding paper (menu, program, etc.)! I’ll have my cake and eat it, too! 
So hive, thank you for all the help! I’m sure I’ll be coming to you many more times before November.
Did you have a hard time picking between 2 (or more) drastically different design elements for your wedding paper?
These are so cute! I love the Savannah saying on them too! Are you customizing them or is the Etsy maker putting your info on them and then shipping them to you? We’re using postcards from our venue…they’re are four different postcards each has a picture of the historical mansion or one of its rooms on the front…its $1.39 for a set of four.
@D.Marie: The Etsy seller offered to come up with a design and print it on the back of the cards with all of our info, but it would have been an extra $30. I figured I could do it myself (thus making them a semi-homemade project) and save myself $30 in the process! Good deal on your postcards!
Oooo, yea! This is the design I voted for — and yes, I’m having a crazy tough time right now on invitation designs…but I’ll be posting way more details about this some time soon!
