Be Our Guest?

So lately I’ve been invitation crazy. I mean, maybe I shouldn’t be this early, but I am. I am flat out obsessed. I have been scouring the Internet high and low for something that fits our theme and feels like us.

I started at the large discount invitation sites, but nothing seemed right. They were all too formal, too plain, too stuffy, or too outdated to really fit the two of us. It was frustrating, to say the least. So I did what I do in every situation like this. I turned to Etsy. That’s where I found these:

57 Hearts wedding invitation suite from Etsy seller lvandy27

iHEARTyou pocketfold invitation suite from Etsy seller LittleSparkCreations

Retro Hearts invitation set from Etsy seller cloudfish

Love and Marriage wedding invitation from Etsy seller charlymouse.

xox Collection wedding invitation and RSVP from Etsy seller orchardandbrown

Now imagine all of them in our wedding colors. Those are the invites that I have samples of in my wedding-planning folder now. At the moment, I have a favorite, but I’m not sure if it’s THE ONE. I know, I know. I picked out my dress with only two days of shopping, but this…this I’ve been agonizing over for weeks now with no end in sight. What’s a girl to do?

(Don’t say DIY my invitations. I floated that idea to Mr. Lox a month or two ago, and he was violently opposed. So we are definitely consumers on this venture.)

Which one do you like the best, or should I look for something else entirely? Help a gal out.

I {heart} the Retrohearts from Cloudfish. So playful, romantic and whimsical. Don’t stress too much, all of these selections are worthy.

I love the iheartyou invites, simple but very cute. Great colors too (I am biased on that one since those are my colors)

Those are so cute! I love how they are not too formal, but still look really really nice!

i LOVE the “retro hearts” design and the “love and marriage”! Etsy is great, isn’t it?? I DIY’ed our invites tho, do you have design skills? Why was Mr. Lox so opposed? I loved doing them because it really made them feel like OURS, you know?

I really like #2, but I think #3 would go very well with your STDs. Whatever you choose will be great because they are all super cute!

I like the 1st one. They are fun and cute but still well made. Are you have a more casual wedding? If not, I would shop around for something a *tidbit* more formal. Like I said though, these are fun and cute.

LOVE the first and second ones! Like you, we will NOT be DIYing. I have no desire to AT ALL.

#3! I’m totally biased, though, because I’m in love with that Wingdings Heart!
