***This giveaway is no longer accepting entries***
When the folks from Two Paperdolls contacted us a couple of months ago about doing a giveaway (like they’d recently done on one of our favorite wedding sites) we knew it would be the perfect Wedding Week prize for you guys. Two Paperdolls – who are on the brink of launching a new e-commerce website with a whole new look – along with their sister site Louella Press are dishing out over $1000 worth of custom letterpress wedding (or party!) invitations. Amazing, eh? So all of you brides-to-be (or anyone else who just wants to throw a party) can cross one thing off of your to-do list.
If you don’t currently fall into the “engaged” category, go tell your nearest wife-to-be, mother-of-the-bride, or anyone else who is ready to give a killer engagement present about this fab little freebie. Or you yourself can use the prize for any other event or announcement that you’ve got around the corner (birthday party? baby shower? anniversary party? just-won-amazing-free-invitations party?). Louella Press designs gorgeous classic-yet-fresh invitation sets that are pretty much guaranteed to make an incredible first impression to any guest who is lucky enough to receive ’em.
We’ve chosen a few of our favorites here, but be sure to click over to Louella’s site to browse the full collection. Just note that these images show engraved invitations (raised ink) but the winner will be receiving equally-beautiful letterpress invite sets (which each include an invitation, envelope, rsvp card, and rsvp envelope). And if your event or announcement doesn’t need the RSVP card and envelope, feel free to convert it to a thank you card and envelope instead. Oh, and you’ll all be receiving an exclusive YHL discount on Thursday so stay tuned…
Here are this week’s full details:
- PRIZE: 50 single-color letterpress invitation sets (including 50 invitations, envelopes, rsvp cards, and rsvp envelopes) on your choice of either fluorescent white or pearl 110 pound paper, courtesy of Two Paperdolls and Louella Press
- TO ENTER: Comment on this post with the words “INVITE ME!” and…
- BONUS QUESTION: … since we’re talking invitations and guest lists, tell us whether you prefer a large family-and-friend-filled wedding or a smaller more intimate event- or maybe even a destination wedding with just a handful of lucky travel companions.
- GIVEAWAY CLOSES: Our anniversary! (Wednesday, July 7th at 8pm EST)
- NUMBER OF WINNERS: One
- PRIZE SHIPS: To the United States of America
- USUAL STUFF: One entry per e-mail address is permitted. The winner will be selected using random.org and announced on Thursday. Good luck!

I love the close family and friend event :)
No Biggie says
Invite me!
I’m not engaged or married, but I think when the time comes, I’d love a destination wedding … my dad is one of 9 children and my mom is one of 7 — holy huge wedding, Batman!
Kristin says
Invite me!
My fiance and I are planning a small winter wedding in portland, oregon… and those invites are perfect!
Nikki G says
INVITE ME! I’d prefer to have a large wedding where all of our family and friends can attend and share in our happiness!
Melissa says
INVITE ME!
Oh I really want to give this to an engaged friend! I got married almost two years ago and much prefer a small, intimate wedding, though ours was a bit larger than that.
katalina says
INVITE ME!
I much prefer a small and intimate wedding with family and close friends.
Katherine says
INVITE ME! For my wedding I’d prefer either a super large wedding in a church or a small destination wedding. Two opposite ends of the spectrum. :)
Sarah McAffry says
INVITE ME!
Laura says
INVITE ME! My fiance and I are having a large-ish wedding to celebrate with all our family & friends in November!
Tori says
Invite me!
I’m not engaged, but if I was, I’d love to have a wedding on the beach.
Erin says
INVITE ME!”
We have a relatively large wedding with 250 guests and i wouldn’t trade it for the world. I loved sitting at the front of the reception hall looking out at all of our guests thinking how cool it was that all these people were here for us! And to see our cousins, parents friends, college roommates, etc. all in one room. I would do it over again in a heartbeat – with the same guy of course :)
Jessica says
INVITE ME!
I’m engaged with a wedding date next May. We are planning a large wedding for our whole family and all of our friends! I can’t wait!!
Sarah says
INVITE ME!
Kelly says
INVITE ME!
I had an enormous family so small intimate gatherings, wedding or otherwise, aren’t really possible. I guess it’s good I find comfort in the chaos!
McKinzie says
“INVITE ME” We had a big friends and family affair but if I could do it all over I’d love to try a destination wedding!
Pam says
INVITE ME! My dream wedding would be an elopement on a tropical island in the middle of nowhere…but I’m planning to compromise and have a smallish wedding on the Sunshine Coast of British Columbia in September.
Megan D says
Invite me!
Small – family and close friends. Only those people who know that if everything goes wrong, it will still be an awesome fun party.
Renee says
Invite me!!! I’m getting ready for a lovely destination wedding myself. We are trying to DIY as mush stuff as possible. It’s just going to be close family and friends but the guest list is over 70 people long. Crazy how everything starts out small but ends up to be big!!!
Cameron says
Invite Me! Looks like our upcoming wedding will be around 100 people- enough to include all of our friends and family, but not so many that we’ll spend all night shaking hands and meeting extended family friends!
Carrie says
Invite me! Most of our parties include about 30 people- our wedding had 21 people, include us and our pastor! So we really like smaller events!
MegM says
INVITE ME! We’re planning a “CANNOT-WILL-NOT-POSSIBLY-EXCEED-100” wedding (aiming for 80), much to the chagrin of the future MIL. So, we prefer smaller but want all the important “someone”s in our lives.
Jess says
INVITE ME!
My fiance and I are getting married in October, and we’re having a mid-sized wedding…about 150 guests. that way, all of our family could attend as well as our close friends from our life in Richmond, Virginia as well as old friends from out of state.
Emily B. says
INVITE ME!!
My fiance and I are planning a medium-sized-ish wedding at my parents home in Maryland for Fall 2011!
Leanne says
INVITE ME!… to my brother’s wedding next year. It would be great to be able to surprise them with this awesome freebie!! My wedding was the close family type of affair which I wouldn’t trade for the world.
keri says
INVITE ME!
my ideal is to have a destination ceremony with family, somewhere warm and tropical…then come home and throw a huge BBQ reception that’s all about fun and down-home goodness :)
Crystal C says
INVITE ME!!!
I’d like a large production. My family is HUGE! I can’t leave anyone out.
Audrey M. says
Invite me!!
If I could go back, my wedding would have been smaller. I guess you live, you learn!
Randi says
“INVITE ME!”
We got married 13 years ago and if we could do it over we would totally have a destination wedding with just a handful of lucky travel companions!
Now we are expecting our first child in August; if we win the giveaway we’ll use it for birth announcements!
Amy Kelly says
INVITE ME! My husband and I had around 150 wedding guests–family and friends–so it was a somewhat large, but still intimate event. I really adore the look and feel of very small, super intimate celebrations as well.
These invitations are so elegant and gorgeous! My husband and I are buying our first home and it would be absolutely amazing to have such beautiful invites for our future housewarming.
Megean says
Invite Me!
I love a small wedding. Everything seems personal and cute!
Kristin Maggard says
INVITE ME!! :)
My fiance and I are both in grad school, and it has been really tough trying to plan a wedding while keeping up with studies. To make it more difficult, we are long distance! But we are so excited for our wedding, which will be in Colorado in September. Love the invitations, love your site!!
Christian says
Invite Me!
A destination wedding with just a handful of lucky travel companions; my family is pretty anti-social and a small destination wedding could side step all of the pressure to entertain guests!
Lori says
INVITE ME!
I prefer small, intimate gatherings with family and close friends. :)
Jessica says
INVITE ME!
Small with just close family and friends. :)
Fallon R. says
“INVITE ME!”
I want a Big Wedding with all my family and friends.
Jenny D. says
INVITE ME!
Wow, I wish you’d had this giveaway last year during wedding week! My wedding is just a few weeks away, but I’m sure I could put these paper beauties to good use. Our upcoming wedding will have about 100 guests, but I wouldn’t have minded it being even smaller, and more laid back. Wedding planning is quite the chore!
Kelsi says
INVITE ME!
I like a moderate sized crowd, full of family and friends.
Paul says
Invite Me!
We would like a smaller more intimate wedding.
christina c says
Invite me! I can’t wait to have a small simple back yard wedding (bunting and all!)
Rebekah says
Invite me! The bigger the better!
Goldie says
INVITE ME!
when I got married I had a very large wedding. Think My Big Fat Jewish Wedding with 500 people
Cassie C says
INVITE ME!
My dream wedding would be [and hopefully someday will be] a small ceremony of close relatives and friends followed by an an all out large celebration for everyone under the moon! {Seriously, I want wedding crashers!}
Christy says
INVITE ME! I want a wedding with many friends and family! These are really beautiful. Our wedding colors are going to be blue and green. The blue and green invites in the second photo you posted would be perfect! What a great deal to get the first 50 free that would be!
Thanks for the chance to win!
Melissa says
INVITE ME! I prefer and am having a wedding full of family and friends. When are you ever going to have them all together in one place again? Never.
Emily says
Taking a que from you guys, we are doing a backyard wedding. Don’t know when or where yet…but it’ll happen. I already have it planned out in my head and on paper…just need a date and our “forever” house!
INVITE ME!
Arianna says
INVITE ME!
My wedding will have just about 50 people, and it will be just right.
Jenny M says
INVITE ME! I have to say that my wedding was a shotgun wedding. I wish I could do it over again. With my husband of course! He joined the Air Force and we only have a little over a week to plan a wedding on the one date we were allowed… September 11, 2004. I was so upset because it was nothing I dreamed of. If I could do it over again… I would love to have a wedding like yours. It was intimate and beautiful. Everything I wish my was. Of course I got the man of my dreams… just not the wedding.
Teeny says
INVITE ME!!!
My man and I chose an amazing winery that looks like a castle. The venue accomodates a maximum of 120 guests on the rooftop overlooking the vineyard.
Tiffany L says
INVITE ME!
I would love to be able to invite ALL of our friends and family to our wedding. The more the merrier!
Elizabeth says
INVITE ME!!!
With time and military constraints, my high school sweetheart and I went to the courthouse to get married, with a promise of a vow renewal before we had babies:) Well, two daughters in two years and a year long deployment overseas-my promise of a vow renewal is slowly in the planning:)
