No Liners. I would give 50 bucks to every bride who has a guest call and say "Wow those liners in your envelopes were DA BOMB!!"
But then again im a lazy broad, ha.
Not worth it. Seriously. I was hesitant about spending good money on invitations, because they'll just end up in the trash eventually, but I absolutely would NOT spend any money on lining my envelopes--they go in the trash immediately.
I would probably never notice envelope liners. I just rip open envelopes. I think its a waste of money on a detail not many people will even recognize.
It depends on the color of the invitations and if you're happy with anything that may show through the envelopes. We got them for the last wedding, as the dark turquoise blue on the print could be seen and we didn't like it. The person who made them charged only $.50 for each, but we felt it was worth it.
You can add liners as a DIY project and save lots of money. I plan to do this and will use wrapping paper as my liners. Personally the envelope looks sooo much better when its lined.
And people do not tear open a wedding invitation envelope..atleast I dont know anyone who does, I usually open them carefully
no liners here - but that could just be because the thought of DIYing them makes me break out in a cold sweat lol - i do think that they look really nice, though - just not for me
I think they look nice but for me they're not worth the time and expense.
I notice every little detail too. I chose to have them. I couldnt see myself cutting and glueing them into the envelopes. It was a splurge and it did increase the cost. They are definitely not a must-have. I bet alot of our invitees won't notice. But, I always notice liners even on holiday cards (maybe I'm a freak). The liners made me happy so I went with them.
They're SOOO not necessary in the big scheme of things.
With that being said, I'll probably be DIYing mine if I have time.
I wasn't going to use them, just to save money. But last night I priced them out- 8 cents each!!! Totatly worth it.
@bells: Hmmm... how often are you around when people open envelopes and letters? Anyhow, I can't say I ever have noticed liners or not. I am definitely not doing them. Maybe if I have time which I doubt but arghhh.... all these wedding details :(
@keybee: Where? I'd be interested if they are that cheap AND not time consuming.
I love the look of liners, but I decided against them because I feel like they'll just get thrown away anyway so it wasn't worth my time DIYing or the money.
here is a site with a wide inexpensive variety http://www.paperpresentation.com/mm5/merchant.mvc?Screen=CTGY&Store_Code=PPN&Category_Code=ENVLINERS
I wanted liners because they look so pretty, but I decided the cost was not worth it. And I do not DIY 
. I personally DO notice when invites come with pretty liners, but I don't really notice if they are NOT there, and I doubt most guests will.
I think liners are super cute, but i don't think people notice them or care, so not worth the extra expense in my opinion.
Thanks everyone! This is not something that I will DIY so I appreciate the feedback about the fact that this is cheaper, but at the same time it is not me....but I love all the feedback and <3 s to the bees!
I DIY'd liners for our save the dates and I really liked how they turned out. I plan on doing them again for our invites- I realize that people throw them away, but I liked the look of it and it was worth it to me :)
I have made them myself before and plan on doing them for our invitation inner envelope. I am doing them myself, I pickep up the perfect template online. Since you only glue the top, I used a glue roller, really easy.
We did liners because we have taken great care in making our invitations really special. Since our invitation was pretty simple (white and grey writing), we used the envelope to convey the wedding colors (yellow envelopes with grey patterned liner).
Also, it did not cost that much either - for 100 liners:
I think if it's not a must have for you, skip it. For us, FI and decided that our no one is going to hold on to our invites, and in reality they are going to get thrown away. No one is going to keep the envelope, some people may notice it, but I suspect the majority will not. If you feel you could use the money else where, skip the liners.
I DIYed my entire invitation suite. I planned on doing liners the whole time. By the time it was time to do it....I was completely over them. I say it's not worth it!
I've always immediately thrown away the wedding invitation envelope, don't waste your money. There are other "details" that will last longer.

So I am sure that this is a common issue with brides...I am obsessed with the SMALLEST details. This morning it is envelope liners....
I just priced out our envelopes w/ liners vs. with out and it is a significant savings. The price is with mounting so I know I could save $ and do it myself, but I can not picture myself gluing liners into envelopes....
So do the liners really matter?
