There are a million and 1 ways to save money, especially on weddings – all you have to do is take the time to look for them.

Addressing invitations can quickly take a sizable chunk out of your budget, but it doesn’t have to. I thought about printing folks addresses on clear labels and then applying them to the envelopes … a good idea, but not very classy.

We are still working on our invitation designs, but once we are ready to send them out, I plan on using Jenn’s nifty calligraphy trick to save money yet maintain a considerable amount of style.
