Guys… I cannot wait to share my wedding invitations with you all!
Wedding planning has been pretty easy going so far. Either my fiancé and I are just used to planning amongst the chaos (teacher life) or we just have been super lucky! Either way, we feel super blessed. Honestly, the hardest part has been finding products and services that truly fit our theme, color scheme AND budget. Soooo, I’m a little picky?! We are going for a desert-chic, but sort of vintage, but still fun, boho and botanical kind of theme (if that all makes sense… haha!)
Ultimately, we have a vision for our wedding, and we don’t want to settle for “almost” or “close enough” for anything.
When it was time to choose our wedding invitations, we couldn’t find anything that really caught our eye AND fit within our tight budget. To be honest, everything began to look identical. It was the standard white card-stocked, silver foiled text and a little fancy swirls here and there. Sure, they were all lovely, but not what we wanted.
Then I found a true gem. BasicInvite.com
Basic Invite is a printing company that helps you create and customize the perfect invitations for your special occasion. Birthdays, graduations, weddings, babies… anything goes with Basic Invite. Oh, and their invitations are unique and stunning!
From start to finish I got to create our wedding invitations with ease! They turned out better than we could ever imagine. Like, I’m in LOVE with our invitations. Keep reading on to see why Basic Invite surpasses all invitation companies and to see what beautiful design we went with 🙂
6 Reasons that Basic Invite Tops all Wedding Invitations
1. Hundreds of Customizable Options – Gone are the days of settling for wedding invitations that only kind of match your wedding theme and colors. With Basic Invite, you are the designer from start to finish. There are over 180 colors to choose from, allowing you to meticulously customize every small detail. They even include foiled colors in silver, gold and rose-gold. You heard me ladies, ROSE-GOLD. Best of all, you can edit and preview the invitation right on their website. No more crossing your fingers and hoping for the best like with other invitation services.
2. Samples! – Concerned about the quality of the invitations in person? Or, are you indecisive on which invitations to order? No problem! Basic Invite is one of the few invitation websites that allow you to order a sample invitation. This is perfect for the bride-to-be with specific color schemes. Better yet, order a few samples of different styles to help you decide if you are feeling torn between a few designs.
3. Envelopes that Make a Statement – Sure it’s what’s inside that counts, but that doesn’t mean your envelope has to be a “plain jane”. With over 40 different matte and shimmer shades, you can choose an envelope that will wow your guests from the moment they open their mailbox. You can even customize the inner envelope lining to have a photo of you and your fiancé. Think of how pretty your styled wedding photos will look with a statement envelope!
4. They are Anything but Basic –Basic Invite has over 800 stunning wedding invitation sets! You can coordinate your invitations, save the dates, enclosure cards, menus, programs and thank you cards all in one. Not only that, but they also have modern styles like wooden, clear and the eco-friendly Seal & Send invitations. The hardest part for me was decided which beautiful design to go with! Best of all, they have a Love It Guarantee! They want you to be 100% happy with your order, or they will re-print/refund you. To me that shows how much they love what they do and care for their customers.
5. Convenience & Time Saving – Basic Invitation provides a free address collection service to organize and print your guests’ addresses. Just share a link to all of your guests, they will add their address and then you will have them available to be printed onto your envelopes in any font and color that you choose. All for free. Classy huh?!

Invitations and MORE – Basic invite is not just an incredible company to order wedding invitations from, but they have guest books, bridal shower invites, belly bands, place cards and FREE wedding websites that can all be customized to match your theme and colors. You literally can get more than half of your wedding errands done on one website!

Our Invitations from Basic Invite –
I cannot express my LOVE for these invitations. They came out better than we could ever have imagined!
We went with these “Laurel Crown” Seal & Send invites. I love how it is an invitation, envelope and RSVP card all in one! Not only are they a unique style, but our wedding budget definitely enjoyed the savings. My guests will simply fill out the perforated RSVP card and mail it back to us. (Address is included on RSVP card, however I blurred it on the picture for privacy purposes.)
Like I mentioned before, the editing and customizing process was so easy. I was able to change the fonts, colors, background and even add in some rose-gold foil and preview it online. I got to choose my exact quantity, order them and within a few days they were printed and shipped out!
For the quality, customer service and price, Basic Invite is unbeatable!
