Let’s talk about wedding invitations! If you’re planning a wedding and working on budget details, you’ve probably already realized that weddings are crazy expensive.  After booking the venue, the photographer, the florist, and more, you might start thinking about what can be cut from your budget or components that you can do a cheaper way.
