Though thrifty, we decided to spend money on invitations, but didn't want to go the traditional route. Instead, we used an online printer -- 4by6.com -- that specializes in business cards and postcards. That way, we could get something 4-color, with a matte finish. Total cost was about $380. The down side: there are no standard envelopes to fit postcards, so we had to slice each invitation by hand. I ripped the design off of an old Mermaid Parade Ball poster.

Those are pretty fantastic. What a great idea for a different sort of invitation (those pristine ones scare me).
