Did you mention anywhere how many invites you actually bought? Also, just fyi for anyone else, a good way to pick up gold leaf is with an old makeup/paint brush!! This way you don’t have to get your hands dirty and they’ll also brush off extras too. My wedding is in 2 years….. and I’m already doing wedding prep. 😅
I think i bought 60 invites but only made around 40.. and yes such a good idea!! I was trying to figure out the best way to put on the gold leaf and was struggling with that for sure!!
💍 this was so helpful! We’ve been struggling with wrapping our heads around how expensive weddings can be during this process and this is exactly the type of tutorial I’ve been searching for. Congratulations of your wedding ♥️
You are so welcome! I am so glad it was helpful to you!! It was mind blowing how expensive weddings are so i wanted to cut costs as much as possible but have the guests know i was cutting costs!! :)
💍 Thank you for this video!!!! Your wedding invitation are absolutely gorgeous, very elegant! My niece is getting married in a few months and I’m trying to give her ideas on saving money and this video is so much help! Thank you! I’m definitely watching all of your wedding videos since I found this a year after you posted it. Thanks again and God bless. ♥️
💍 super helpful! I didn’t realize how much wedding invitations cost, and like you can’t understand spending that much on paper that I know as a guest I didn’t pay much attention to! This is very helpful thank you!
As a designer pt use Odd numbers so wrapping your invitations do 3 wraps and/or decorating odd numbers in a bouquet, table arrangements ect count everything in the grouping counted as 7 individual things the eye see’s ❤😊 which is an odd number. Hope this makes sense
LOVE YOU FOR THIS! Even with trying to find ways to DIY, I’ve only been able to find invites for minimum $450! Now with the amount of invites I’m making, I can do it for about $130 ☺️ Love it!! 💍💍💍💍💍
This was my plan for my invites before I even saw your video. After watching, I know for sure that’s what I want to do. They look great and I love DIY-ing stationary. 💍
Hey girl! Thank you so much for making this video!! I used your links and everything is perfect! My fiancé and I are very impressed with the finished product! I used the “Devoted Delight” invitation with the envelope color in kraft on Truly Engaging. For 70 invitations is was $86 with shipping!
CONGRATS!!!! I am so glad this video helped you!! I plan on making a bunch more before my wedding but make sure you check out the ones I have already posted too!! :)
I loved the gold leafing, I’m celebrating my 50th Wedding Anniversary and that a great idea, I think I will be doing that to my invites. I stayed the whole video! Good video!
💍this video was so helpful, thank you!!! I’m scouring the internet for DIY wedding invite ideas that don’t look “DIY” and this totally fit the bill♥️ excuse me while I go watch your save the date video😊
I ADORE This. I hate the idea of spending 1000 on invites. I love the idea of putting love into invites. (I have like 135 so may be work but I’m committed to making this not a huge expense)
💍Currently designing my wedding invites for my wedding in December! I am trying to DIY most of this process and your video was so helpful! Thank you for sharing!
So beautiful! I am currently looking for invite designs that I can do myself and this looks like something I could definitely get the hang of! Thanks for an idea! 💍
💍 thank you so much for posting this! We’ve been stressed with how expensive the invites are going to be but these are absolutely gorgeous and look expensive! I’m definitely going to use the majority of these tips. 💖💖
Good job! You are so smart to save money and make your invitations look beautiful yourself. Your husband to be is a lucky guy😉Congratulations on you wedding💞
So happy I stumbled upon your tutorial! I have been thinking of doing wax seals for my invitations, but was a little intimidated by the process. Your invites look so beautiful I'm definitely going to try it out!
Loveeee this video! You worked so hard on your invites & they came out beautifully. It looks like the wax seal stamp link isn’t working. Can you please provide a new/updated link? Thank you!!!
I used to sell wedding stationery & also diy’d lots of invites, holiday cards, etc. and found your video to be excellent!! Great tips & beautiful work! 💍 💛🎉
Love your creativity! Personally I would have stopped at the gold leaf but I love the wax seals. You actually gave me some ideas for another project too lol
💍 💍 so beautiful!!! I loved the idea of using the details page on the back side of the envelope. I used truly engaging for my save the dates and they came out great. Thank you for the tip!! Also, congrats on your wedding girl ❤️
Thank you so much! I am so glad this was able to help you in your wedding planning journey!!! Truly engaging is the best bang for you buck in my opinion!! so happy i found them!
these are beautiful! i am definitely interested in using some of your ideas, but out of curiosity, how many invites did you have to make? i will need about 100-115 cards and with my save the dates, even just stamping/enveloping the cards took me like 2 hours! just trying to gauge how long this DIY would actually take and if its worth it for me or not haha
I’m so happy you liked it!! I personally didn’t have to use extra postage but maybe mail a trial one to make sure everything is good before sending them all
Hey girl I’m in love with this video you gave me so many ideas ! I have a question about the wax stamp, did you get regular 2.5cm or did you upgrade the size ? Thank you 💛
💍thank you! Beautiful video. My wedding is next year and I’m wondering if paper invites are really worth it? We have a destination wedding and we did the e-save the dates. Not sure if I want to do paper invites, I feel like all the info will be on the website which we already shared on the save the date. Looking for suggestions 😊thanks
I definitely don't think paper invites are necessary but it is a nice little keep sake!! Also is a nice thing for photos for the wedding photographer. I think doing cheap DIY invites is a good middle ground so you don't spend too much of the wedding budget!
Hi there!! Your video inspired me to make my own Save the Date cards! I bought the wax sticks and the Gorilla Glue gun you listed on the box description. Did you struggle to fit the wax sticks into the glue gun?
💍💍 did you use your new last name for the wax seal design? Also do you have a link to the etsy shop? Thanks for this super helpful video; I hadn't thought of using wax seals but it looks so easy and elegant!!!
If you are going to be doing last names I would recommend your new last name. I did our first initials. Here is the wax seal I used: www.etsy.com/listing/843267181/personalised-wax-seal-stamp-custom-your?ref=shop_home_feat_1&pro=1&frs=1

💍 Congratulations!!! This video was very helpful for my upcoming wedding in October! 🖤I absolutely love the wax seal idea!
Thank you!! Congrats to you too!! :) I am so glad the video was able to help you in your wedding planning process!!
@@SarahPopolo I’m a little nervous about the wax 🙈how long did you leave the wax stamp on the wax?
Only about 30 seconds or so! It helps if you put the wax stamp in ice for a second before stamping it. It will come up super easy that way.
💍Thank for the great ideas! Blessings on your wedding!
You are so welcome! I hope you found it helpful!!
Those are so beautiful! Definitely something to keep in my back pocket when I get engaged! 💍💍💍
Definitely!!
Thank you! 💍 Currently doing mine as I watched lol

Thank you so much! I am so glad this was able to help you in your wedding planning journey!!! Truly engaging is the best bang for you buck in my opinion!! so happy i found them!
💍Gorgeous Invite!
these are beautiful! i am definitely interested in using some of your ideas, but out of curiosity, how many invites did you have to make? i will need about 100-115 cards and with my save the dates, even just stamping/enveloping the cards took me like 2 hours! just trying to gauge how long this DIY would actually take and if its worth it for me or not haha
I really only needed around 30-40 invites! Since so many people we invited were families it really cut down the invites we had to send and make!
Hey did you have to use extra postage? I LOVE this idea and im going to do something very similar. 💍💍💍
I’m so happy you liked it!! I personally didn’t have to use extra postage but maybe mail a trial one to make sure everything is good before sending them all
💍 I am so excited… I even subscribed to your channel. The invites look so beautiful 😍 😍😍😍
Awh thank you so much!! That means the world to me!! 💕💕
Hey girl I’m in love with this video you gave me so many ideas !
I have a question about the wax stamp, did you get regular 2.5cm or did you upgrade the size ?
Thank you 💛
Thank you so much!! I did the regular size!! 2.5cm!! :)
Perfect thank you so much ☺️
💍 💍 the invites look amazing
Thank you 🥰
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
💍wow! that was amazing!
Thank you so much!!! :)
Thank you for sharing this website!
What kind of paper and thickness did you choose? I’m a little overwhelmed with all the options they have.
You are so welcome! I am so happy you found the video helpful! I used the standard paper options!
💍thank you! Beautiful video. My wedding is next year and I’m wondering if paper invites are really worth it? We have a destination wedding and we did the e-save the dates. Not sure if I want to do paper invites, I feel like all the info will be on the website which we already shared on the save the date. Looking for suggestions 😊thanks

Thank you so much 🥰🥰🥰
Such a helpful video!!! Also could you let me know what type of paper you got ?? 😅😅
I used the premium smooth paper!
Do you have a copy of your exact template? I love how simple and straightforward it is.
I am so happy you like it!! I actually just used a template straight off of Magnet Street!!
@@SarahPopolo did it have that whole back with the details and everything?
I love your video! Thank you for sharing. what type of paper did you use for these? TIA
Thank you!! I used the premium smooth paper option!
Hi there!! Your video inspired me to make my own Save the Date cards! I bought the wax sticks and the Gorilla Glue gun you listed on the box description. Did you struggle to fit the wax sticks into the glue gun?
I’m so glad you found the video helpful!! And no the wax size fits perfectly in the glue gun!
💍💍💍 This was actually very nice! Thank you for sharing.
of course!! I am so glad you enjoyed!
Hello! These look beautiful 😍 how would people open them? The wax seal holds down the string right? They would need to remove the seal to open?
Thank you so much! i found it easiest to just slide it out but I’m sure some people also pulled the wax string to open it too..
Or maybe removed the wax seal? i am honestly not 100% sure how most people opened it but I always just slipped it out
💍💍 did you use your new last name for the wax seal design? Also do you have a link to the etsy shop? Thanks for this super helpful video; I hadn't thought of using wax seals but it looks so easy and elegant!!!
If you are going to be doing last names I would recommend your new last name. I did our first initials. Here is the wax seal I used: www.etsy.com/listing/843267181/personalised-wax-seal-stamp-custom-your?ref=shop_home_feat_1&pro=1&frs=1
