Default Need to buy envelopes!!

Hey Everyone,

I have to get my invitations out (last week), and really need to purchase envelopes. I need inner and outer, and was hoping for lined, but don't want to break the bank on them. Any suggestions? I feel like I've been searching the net for days with no luck!

The sizes are A9 for the outer (5 3/4 x 8 3/4) & A8 for the inner (5 1/2 x 8 1/8)

I would really appreciate any help you can give me!

Thanks!!!

Try www.mygatsby.com or http://www.paperandmore.com/index.html. I bought my invitations from one of them and vellum from another one for my ceremony programs.

Hope that helps!

Thanks! I looked into them, but they don't seem to have the right size combination, but on the bright side, I do need vellum, so I can get that from the site.

Go to an office store like Office Max or Staples. I had to buy mine there after I ruined the ones that came with my invites. Just bring an invitation with you so you can size it properly.

Also - if you're trying to save cash, don't use the inner envelope. They're really not that necessary unless you must list out who is invited other than to whom the invitation is addressed.

Check office supply stores and also paper wholesale places. You may even be able to find them at a store that carries scrapbooking supplies.

Thanks I'll check them out today. Looks like the invitation size is about 5.1 x 7.5

Maybe I would be able to use a different size envelope, but I was just going by what they told me (the girl who did the invitations for me)

I would check with your local printers. We actually had our invitations printed at a local printer and she also supplied the envelopes. I'm sure you could buy whatever size you needed. She also said that you couldn't get non-gummed envelopes unless you ordered them from the wedding invitation companies and that would cost a mint.
