What Is the Average Cost of a Wedding Invitation?
When you are budgeting for a wedding, you need to make every penny count. One of the biggest challenges is sticking to the budget you initially set, and the last thing you want to be doing is paying over the odds for any of the details. Wedding invitations come in a range of styles, and the quality can be exceedingly high without the need for an extortionate price tag. So the big question is:
What is the average cost of a wedding invitation?
The truth is there is no single answer to this question. There are, however, several key factors that will have an impact on the cost:
-The number of invitations you are ordering
-The style of the print, and the finishing
-Whether you choose a bespoke design or an off-the-shelf one
-Any support cards you require, like RSVP cards, gift lists, etc.
As a general rule of thumb, you can assume that less = more and more = less. Without being too confusing, we mean the more wedding invitations you order, the less you will pay per invitation. This is due to savings made when printing a larger number of copies. The personal design choices you make will be the other major player, and this is likely to apply to every aspect of your wedding.
