    It's been very difficult for us to find invitations that we like.  Through our DOC we get 50% off of a certain site, so we've been trying to choose from the site. At the start I didn't really like any, but now I've searched more and found a few that we like. Which do you like the most out of these four? I can't wait to receive them in the mail and see them in person!

    The 5th one is on recycled paper and has a real leaf.

    If you're having a more modern wedding I say go with the first, they are really cool. If your wedding will be more traditional then I'd go with the last.

    Whats the theme/setting/vibe you want for your wedding? I think that may help us pick. Some are more elegant others are relaxed, what are you going for?

    Wow thanks for all the votes so far! I am surprised that #1 is winning! The wedding venue is a very pretty hotel next to the Hudson River. The ceremony is outside in the garden, followed by passed hors'dervs and then a nice sit down dinner inside in the banquet room with a live band. It isn't a super fancy wedding, nor is it terribly casual. My colour theme is green and white. At first I was trying for sage green and white, but then found it difficult to find these colours in invitations so I decide anything similar is fine as well. Thanks for all of your suggestions! I appreciate it!

    i don't really care for the first one...it looks a little "hipster made this on photoshop to advertise a weird art gallery opening" to me. the third is my favorite, followed by the fourth (and it's great that it's on recycled paper!!). the second is nice but a bit bland.

    I like the first one.  But I think it's mainly because I tend to like more modern looking invites.

    My top two picks are definitely 3 and 4, personally I like number 4 the best! Not a fan of the first one and the 2nd one is very simple...

    I love the first ones but think they might be a little casual.  For something more formal I love the last one.

    I think they're all quite lovely and what a deal 50% off, kudos to the DOC getting you a D-E-A-L (that was supposed to be funny but after having written it, it sounds a bit cheesey, oh well!)

    I wonder if the samples will look the same as they do in the photos above? I especially am curious about the shade of green. How many times have you seen one shade in an image online and then ordered that item only to receive a totally different colour than you expected? I am impatiently waiting for the samples in the mail! Eeek!

    I like the third one! It's good that you ordered samples, since they definitely could look different in person!

    @penga The 3rd one got more votes than I expected! It's covenient that's for sure with being a self mailer and having a rip off RSVP!

    I love the third ones because they have an air of elegance to them.  The first ones are a little too whimsical for my tastes and the other ones are too plain.

    OK I'll finally admit...my favourite is the last one...and I can see pros and cons too all the others...although I am really not that fond of the first one bc it seems too messy...maybe it's nicer in person?

    I like the last one best.  I agree that the first one is too modern for what you'r doing.  And I PERSONALLY think the rip-off rsvp is tacky.  THAT'S JUST ME!!  :-)  And I think the second and fourth are the same?  Those don't catch my eye as much as the last one.  Good luck!  Let us know how they look IRL!

    Maybe everyone sees something in the 3rd that hasn't hit me yet...

    I am still anxiously waiting for the samples. Seeing as they are getting sent internationally it'll take longer.

    I love the 3rd because of the design, it's practical...hello self sealer AND tear off RSVP card. That is the type I'm going to get!
