Does anyone have personal experiences with those companies? Pros/cons? What company or vendor have you used for save the dates and/or invitations? Show me pictures too if you have them! Love see real examples! Thank you!

    I actually designed mine myself from scratch and uploaded it to vista print. I had them printed on heavy linen card stock. I saved a fortune and was able to add some personalized touches that you can't always use through Minted or WPD. If you have a creative touch, I recommend this route.

    We've heard great things about MOO.com as well.

    WPD was absolutely amazing. We used them for our invitations. We got pockets, invites, belly bands, and 2 inserts and I could not be happier.

    We just received our save the dates that we ordered from wedding paper divas and they came out great! They did accidentally leave out 8 envelopes but they were really cool about it when we contacted them today - sending us 10 and they should be here in 3-4 days. If you haven't already, I would recommend getting the sample packs from both sites.

    I used WPD and got invites, address labels, response cards, and envelopes from them. They all came out so perfectly. I was super pleased when I received them.

    I've heard amazing things about both, so I don't think you could go wrong! I liked Minted save the dates better so that's where I got mine. The free guest addressing really sold me too. The envelopes looked SO good!

    Our invitation suite will be from an Etsy seller! She's been amazing so far, very communicative and helpful and she just listens very well and seems to get me! The invitation suite is the third product I've ordered from her, she also customized my Mom's "will you be my Matron of Honor" and FSIL's "will you be my bridesmaid" cards. I did find a suite I absolutely LOVED on WPD, but it was out of budget for us. The photo shows the first pass and is just a sample, but I love that they're personalized totally to what FH and I want!

    STDs we got from Vistaprint, they were magnets and we got 30 (just enough for the VIPs and OOT) for $28 including tax and shipping.

    I actually used Vistaprint for STD! They turned out great but I was thinking of WPD for something a little more "wedding"-ish.

    I got a sample kit for free through WPD so that way you can feel their quality and see some of their designs. Highly recommend that from both sites (if they can) so that way you can feel the one you like the best!

    You can order free samples through Minted, that's what I did and they come in a cute little kit

    Both will send you samples of their paper, and personally I thought WPD was higher quality, especially for printing photos. Both will send you coupons with the sample kits. We got STDs from Minted, and invites from WPD. WPD runs some good sales a couple of times per year - 25-30% off.

    I got my save the dates and invited from wedding paper divas...they're awesome. You can customize your invite and they'll send you a proof (online) to approve so you can what your invite will actually look like. Plus, if you order their free samples, they'll send you coupons. By signing up for their email list, you also get coupons every couple of weeks. Depending on what you get, they tend to ship pretty quickly in my opinion.

    I used WPD for our save the dates and invitations. We are very pleased with how everything came out and their customer service is great. I chose them over Minted because of price/style. However, I will be using Minted for our place cards since they offer free name printing. I don't think you can go wrong with either.

    Order the free samples! They help alot! And don't forget to use a coupon code. You can't combine the groupon with the coupon code (I tried). I actually saved more using the code.

    Oh and...if you are on the fence about adding the pearlization...go for it. It's about .20 cents per invite, but it is so worth it! I only did it for the actual invitation, not the other enclosure cards.
