DIY Wedding by Lorraine: Easy Invites to make (Save Lots of Money)

Welcome to my DIY Wedding & Reception

We are having a simple Justice of the Peace ceremony & later having the Big Reception! We have changed our minds and are now going for a Western style Wedding, but I'm leaving the beach theme wedding posts on here.
All ideas are Welcomed, as I'm kind of a DIY kind of person & can't see pouring tons of money into just one day of our lives, when we have so many years ahead of us (God Willing). We are both Christian. He's Latino & I'm a lil bit of everything, mostly white. We want to cultivate both of our customs into our reception. Please feel free to browse & leave a note of advice! Thanks!

The Big Day

We all want our Wedding Day to be Extra Special, that is just a given, but how do we get there? What are the steps to achieving our Dream Wedding & being able to afford it, without debt.
1st We need to think of where we are willing to Splurge our funds & where we would like to scrimp.
2nd How do we pull this off?
3rd What can we do ourselves, our friends & family do (Do NOT include jealous people!) & our fiancee do? Who do we know that may be in a business that could help us? Networking!!!
4th Where do we start?
I've been researching for about 11 months & I have a good grasp on things. I want to Share what I've learned & want more ideas, too. We can help each other!

Easy Invites to make (Save Lots of Money)

Determine your wedding theme, style & colors. Google pictures, browse for a few favorites, & save to your computer. I used my Microsoft Office 2007 edition to edit the image with details. This saves you from buying anything except paper & ink or taking it to a copy place for lots of copies. It took some playing around to get it just right but they look great! And I know I saved a bundle! Photoshop Elements would work well, too. Just practice and don't give up. For help, feel free to email me: diyweddinglori@gmail.com. I have no problem helping, if I can.
