Invitations from Fairytale Visions have arrived!!!!

Invitations from Fairytale Visions have arrived!!!!

Postby MrsG2b » Tue Apr 15, 2008 3:36 pm

My invites arrived today - I was not expecting them for another week. :o)ll

I got them from www.fairytalevisions.com and I cannot recommend them highly enough - especially Jennifer who is the main person that you deal with.

She is super efficient and friendly despite my editing the drafts 4 times (nothing they did wrong but me being fussy) :o0

These are the invites:

They look even nicer in my hand - I cannot stop looking at them. It is so much more real when your own name and details are there in print!

Overall they cost me EUR360 and 60 of that was postage. I think I would have paid at least EUR1000 if I got them in Ireland so I am thrilled.

Hi

I love your invites, they are just what I would like. Not too fussy but enough detail on them to make them stand out. I like the bit of colour on them.

Can I ask a question, what did you do for the evening invitations, did you use the Reception cards that they offer. Did you also get Thank You cards and reply cards for the full cost. I have done a few templates but have not ordered mine yet. I hve plenty of time, not getting married till June 09.

What is the name on your invite so I can look it up if you don't mind.

Sorry for all the questions but I really like them.

Hi MrsG2B
Love your invites. I got mine from Fairytalevisions also and would really recommend them. I changed my mind 2 or 3 times about the wording and as you say - Jennifer was lovely about it.
We got 75 invites, 75 rsvps and 75 thanks yours for 170 euro including postage.

Hi Silent Bride

The name of the range is Inflorescence and it is on page 62 of their catalogue on the website.

I am not having any evening invites but if I was, I would have used the Reception card and got an evelope for it. You can change the wording on the top of those cards.

There are no thank you cards in this range ( or I did not notice them if there were) so I think we are going to make our own and send them out with our Xmas cards this year.

I got 125 invites & envelopes with nameplates for the invites, 125 respond cards and pre-printed envelopes, 75 Accommodation cards and 75 Direction Card all for €300 plus postage of €60.

I didn't bother with the samples - I just took a chance.

However, that was only after a lot of glowing recommendations from everyone on this site that had used them as well.

I got them delivered to work so I did not pay anything yet. Does anyone know if they follow up with you for customs afterwards or do you have to pay at the time of delivery?

I got mine from fairytalevisions too & I paid €37 in customs. They were still a lot cheaper than here! I didn't order samples either, just like another poster said, trusted all the good reviews on this site! :wv
