We ordered charcoal grey envelopes for daughter's wedding invitations. They were hand made by a friend of future MIL. When we picked them up she suggested calligraphy which looked beautiful but she wanted $2.00 per invitation. Per a previous posting, we are having to make cuts to avoid going over budget. She said we could also print them on a printer using a nice calligraphy font. Well, there is nothing that shows up on the envelopes, plus the envelopes are fairly thick so they ended up looking pretty mangled after they came through the printer (no direct feed slot). Daughter wants to do labels but unless we put a white label on the address won't be visible (with see through ones). I know future MIL paid a lot for these so don't want to ruin them. I have fairly decent handwriting, I would rather hand write them as opposed to labels. Have any of you brides used some type of silver or white ink pen or marker on dark envelopes? Would love some help!
