One suggestion is that photographers frequently offer the service and will give a discount if the photographer is used. Other suggestions made were the following: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 2 Feb 89 14:45:29 -0500 (EST) From: David Nichols We ordered ours from the paper shop on Craig St. It's in one of those buildings with a bunch of stores in it (on the right as you head toward Fifth, I think). Anyway, they did fine. We also got our napkins for the reception there; your need for those probably depends on how fancy your reception will be.

A couple of my friends ordered their wedding invitations through the mail and were happy with them. -Amy --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Thu, 2 Feb 1989 17:06-EST From: Marion.Kee@A.NL.CS.CMU.EDU Marjie Allon, the stationer on Walnut St. in Shadyside, did my wedding invitations (Crane paper, standard formal invite specs, I supplied a calligraphed master copy) and they were courteous, on time, and charged me the standard price for such things. I could have paid the same or more to have it done at Kaufmann's, without the nicer service I got at Marjie Allon. Also, Kwik Copy (or is it Qwik Print? Something like that!) here in Oakland, on Forbes, printed the return address onto my (expensive Crane stationery) envelopes, and they did a very good job--only messed up 2 out of 200 envelopes. They were fast, too, and pretty cheap. --Marion
