    Check out anchorpaper.com They are AMAZING! Great selection, Great prices, and even BETTER customer service (the best I've dealt with anywhere)... and you can order your paper pre-cut (which I HIGHLY suggest doing since they are so cost effective)

    I got tons of samples everywhere online.  Try http://www.paperandmore.com/ or envelopemall.com.  I ended up using linen paper from Office Depot because I was in a time crunch, but I liked all the choices at paperandmore.

    i made my own invites too! I had them printed by Vistaprint.com and it saved a tone of $ and the headache of printing myself and finding the perfect cardstock.  They also send a free sample wedding kit with lots of paper options and 25% off order coupon.  THey did a fantastic job, we just uploaded from our computer and ordered!!! They turned out really well

    Oh yes... Vistaprint is great too!

    We had pocketfolds so their sizing didn't work for us BUT I used them for our Save the Date postcards (only paid shipping for 100) and have used them for our business cards. =)

    For a simple invite they're definitely a great option!

    @amnystik:  So through vistaprint you did not pay for the actual postcards, only the shipping? I am looking on their site and do not see that deal. The postcards are about twenty something then plus tax

     The peeps at catprint.com sent me a sample packet at no cost. Maybe you could look into that as well?
