Preparation for Invitation

Over the years I have had the pleasure of being invited to friends and family's weddings. So far, most of the invitations looked the same. Very simple and sweet. Usually one page with a ribbon bow at the top. Even though this is very nice, I knew I wanted something different. Maybe a bit more complicated, so I started searching for inspiration.
Miss Sloth
A increasingly popular invitation is the kind that is similar to a concert poster. Mixing and matching colors and fonts easily make these invitations appealing. We have seen these from a few brides on the weddingbe; such as Miss Sloth and Mrs. Sand Dollar.

Then there are some invites that are more simple but still styled differently from those I have received before:
Mrs. Argyle
Mrs. Beagle
An then there is the wonderful letter press:
Mrs. Scissors
Last, but not least, the pocketfold:

Mrs. Apple Cider
Once I saw the pocketfold invitations, I new exactly what I HAD to have. I could keep the design of the invitation simple while making the invitation as a whole more exciting.

Next, a cost breakdown.

Where did you seek invitation inspiration?
