***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!

suzanne says

lms52 says
INVITE ME!!! I prefer a small party with family and close friends…
Nicole says
INVITE ME! My husband and I didn’t care where our wedding was going to be, we just cared that all of our friends and family could be there….our invite list was 275.
Kim T says
INVITE ME!
Have been trying to decide between the two for a while… and still going back and forth
Laura says
INVITE ME!
Small Event. With the people that really know us as a couple. Except with my Big Italian wedding, i think just aunts, uncles, and cousins it can already be at 75. ha!
Nina says
“INVITE ME!” Would love to win…I’m organizing a baby shower for a friend and could use some beautiful invitations for the occasion.
Our wedding was very small only close family attended.
Erika says
INVITE ME!
We are getting married in October and I’m trying to decide on invitations now, so the timing for this particular giveaway is perfect! We are doing a destination wedding in the city my grandparents were married, with just family and close friends, but throwing a big bash at home when we return. I would say for the wedding ceremony, a small gathering is my preference.
wendy says
INVITE ME!
I think small and intimate…
thanks!
Shannon M says
INVITE ME! – I’m getting married 8.20.10 and these would be perfect invites for our rehearsal dinner. Our wedding is small – about 100 people so I guess close family & friends is our preference. :)
wendy says
INVITE ME!
ok…i already commented but forgot to say INVITE ME! so there it is! Thanks! Oh…and it was: would love a destination wedding but will probably be able to afford the friends and family party!
Melissa says
Invite Me!
I’m actually getting married in a little over a year. We are planning on going to the courthouse, then having a huge party. I don’t mind big parties, just not fond of standing in front of a lot of people, even people I know.
Lindee says
Invite Me! My BFF is getting married and would LOVE the pink ones!
Meredith K A says
INVITE ME! I went medium-sized for my wedding, with a nice mix and about 150 people.
Jennifer says
INVITE ME!
Gorgeous work! I am a small event person who likes to plan large events for other people. For me, a good dinner party beats giant groups, but I am so type-A, I love to be the puppeteer moving the strings of a large, complicated shin-dig.
Felicita says
Invite me…
I like small intimate events with close friends and family.
Cindy says
INVITE ME! :)
I prefer a large family-and-friend-filled wedding because I have a huge family and tons of amazing friends!
katie says
Invite Me! I like something in the middle, with family and close friends but still a fun vibe! I would love something outdoors. These invites are sooo beautiful!
Meredith says
INVITE ME!! I like larger events! Ours is for 200 guests!

INVITE ME! My husband and I had about 120 guests at our wedding, including friends and family. It was wonderful, but if I had to do it again, destination all the way!
Amanda G says
INVITE ME!
My fiance and I just got engaged and would LOVE to be able to check one thing off of our to-do list…we’re inviting approximately 100 guests of friends and family! :)

There is no small event with my family! My mom is 1 of 7 kids and I have 40 cousins on that side ranging in age from 29 to 1!
Carolyn C. says
INVITE ME! I would prefer the small event please….. or a smaller party!
Thank you!!
Allison H says
INVITE ME!
I prefer small, intimate gatherings whether I am hosting or just a guest. Big parties with loud music and small talk with strangers aren’t my cup of tea!

INVITE ME! i am getting married next year and NEED this! yay! Would love a small wedding of about 80 ppl… Will prob be more like 100… still a nice size!

Kimberly says
INVITE ME!
We had an intimate small ceremony and then a much larger party reception. The best of both worlds!

It’s a large (to me, anyway) wedding. 150ish folks, but lots of dancing and fun!

INVITE ME! These invitations are just so beautiful!
Kali says
INVITE ME
Destination wedding bar none!
Gab says
INVITE ME:)
We are getting msrried in 3 months, and having a small wedding. We love the idea of having people in the room sharing the personal celebration with people that are a part of our everyday thoughts.
Sarah P says
INVITE ME!
I think both types of parties/weddings are wonderful. They both have their positives. I guess I lie somewhere in the middle..not too big and not too small.
INVITE ME! says
We are having a large family and friend filled wedding of 170 guests for February 2011!!
Kelly says
INVITE ME!
We are in the wedding planning stages now- and I think it could potentially be around 300 people. We want to celebrate and honor those people that have invested so much into our lives.
Erin says
INVITE ME!
For our wedding in May, it will be a large family and friend filled day! Trying to get the guest list to 300…
Brooke says
INVITE ME!
I prefer small events with close friends/family
nicole says
INVITE ME!
We just got married on Friday (July 2)! And we had 160 people – perfect size for a great gathering! I would love to win these for my brother, who is tying the knot on March 26th!
Kelly says
INVITE ME!!
I like a semi-large wedding…~100 people. Just enough to make it a party, but still have an intimiate feel!
