Basic Invite is an online store to meet all your save the date needs, save the date postcard needs and more. With over 900 Wedding Invitation Sets, they’ve got you covered. One thing I love about Basic Invite is how easy it is to customize your wedding invitations to your needs. Whether you are picking out a template or uploading your design, they have a ton of ways to modify and change your invitations to look just how you want!

As somebody who loves a good detail shot from a wedding day, I went ahead and tested out the website myself by ordering an invitation set. One amazing thing about this site is Basic Invite allows customers the ability to order a printed sample of their invitation. This was great for me as a photographer, because I only needed one set for photos. For a couple getting married, however, it’s so they can see the card’s paper quality and how it will print before they have to place their final order.

With Basic Invite, figuring out everything you need for your save the dates is pretty darn easy. When I was ordering I was a little unsure of what all I needed to make a full set. I’m the kind of person who gets overwhelmed by a big menu, to give you an idea of my troubles. Scroll a little down and I was able to see more items within the same color scheme/set as well as photo examples of what would go well with my Basic Invite save the dates!

A lot of couples reach out to me right after they have booked their venue, and are still in the planning stages. One piece of the planning stage that some couples love to have set up is creating a wedding website for guests to reference for addresses, details, RSVP’s and more. Not only does Basic Invite meet your stationary/invitation needs, but they also offer FREE WEDDING WEBSITES! Run, don’t walk! They’re mobile friendly and super easy to use. You can instantly upload all of your wedding details, along with images, and a convenient map with directions for your guests.

Almost Unlimited Colors – Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers almost unlimited color options with instant previews online.

Once you receive your order all you have to do is add postage, fold your invites, and secure them with a sticker! Simple and easy.
