    I have a cheap ($10) exacto cutter. It does a really good job, but it will only do 8½" max cut. For larger cuts, I use an exacto knife and a ruler! =)

    My invitation is about 4.5 x 6.5 so 6.5 is the largest I will have to go.

    @ Rubylee L- Could you send me the name of the black one and where would I be able to purchase one?

    Here's the one I use while scrapbooking and papercrafting. http://www.amazon.com/Carl-12200-Professional-10-Sheet-Trimmer/dp/B00007E7M4/ref=sr_1_20?ie=UTF8&qid=1327085614&sr=8-20
    It's a little more expensive, but the blades last twice as long and cuts much nicer.

    Why not go to kinkos and use the one they have out on the floor?

    @Rubylee L- Thanks so much!

    @ Hayley C- I didn't know they do that there. How much do they charge? I need invitations, rsvp, thank you cards, menus, programs, table numbers, and escort cards cut.

    I don't think they would charge you to use the kinkos one.... but I could be wrong?

    It is just out on the floor. They have a little station set along the wall. It has a paper cutter, glue sticks, highlighters, tape, paper clips, etc. Is there Something you can copy so you can say "Hey, I'm a paying customer"

    Or even check your local library. I'm sure they have a paper cutter that you can use for free.

    That sounds like a lot to cut.

    Maybe you will want to just have one at home so you can do it at your own pace?
