***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!

“Invite me!!” We are planning on having a relatively large wedding (150+ people). Its too hard to cut the list! Since we will be paying for most of it ourselves, any help (like free invitations) definately helps!!!

INVITE ME!
Joy says
INVITE ME! Love backyard cookouts with friends and family…
Joy says
INVITE ME! We’re planning a rather intimate wedding with all of our (small) families and closest friends! Letterpress invitations are definitely a dream of mine, and this giveaway is fabulous!
Erin L says
Invite Me!!!
megan says
INVITE ME! Love all 3 types of weddings! Ours is a combination of all of the above. Its a destination in the since that we as well as most guests will need to fly in order to make it. It’s by the beach and the only people who live near by are our parents. We have a big family so it’s impossible to keep the list under 100. We expect that not everyone will be able to travel, so in the end, it will be a bit more intimate :)
Carrie C says
Invite me!!!! I love a destination wedding. Give me sand, friends and cocktails and I would be HAPPY!!
Amie says

Tiffany T. says
Invite me!
I just got engaged a little over a month ago and as I make plans for my wedding in 2012 (to save money and let my gentleman finish graduate school), I know that I want to have an outdoor wedding with 100 of my closest family members and friends. As for eating, that’ll be inside because I won’t share with bugs ;)
Mary says
Invite me!!
natasha says
INVITE ME! I enjoy large parties with friends & family with games, BBQ, wine/beer, and laughs :)
Laura B says
“INVITE ME!”
I think all are great. We had a medium wedding.
kim says
Invite me! we are planning a “small” family wedding but his family is huge so it will probably still be twice as big as we wanted…
Jessica says
INVITE ME!!
I would prefer a smaller affair, but would definitely do a destination wedding if all my important people would be able to come!
Allison says
INVITE ME! Our wedding (in 2012) will be immediate family, aunts, uncles and a few close friends at a resort in the mountains. I can’t wait. :)
Lenna says
INVITE ME – I like going to weddings that feel like a celebration, not an obligation, with friends and family all over the place!
jamie says
INVITE ME! i am engaged and planning a 600+ wedding. am i crazy? i think so. anyway, i love the idea of a small intimate wedding, but when you are marrying an italian and all your own family has lived in the same area for 100+ years, you kinda have no choice but to go big. so here we are!
Kristin C. says
INVITE ME!
I love having as much family and friends around as possible… so it would have to be nice and large!
Jenny says
INVITE ME! I am hoping to get engaged this month and would love to already have something to cross off my list!!
Ap says
Invite me!!
Emily says
INVITE ME!
We did a sweet wedding just a few short months after getting engaged on a very small budget, so did not get very into a lot of wedding details past who/what/where/when/why, however…
We are planning a party in the (not-so-distant) future for when we pay off all of our student loans. It will be called our “green and black party!” (As in green for money and black for being in the black! No red allowed.) We’re working hard towards that financial goal, and would like to spend the equivalent of one month’s student loan payment on this party. We hope this will be our next big celebration!
M@ says
INVITE ME! We’re doing a destination wedding.
ashley white says
INVITE ME!
i love intimate gatherings- our we had a very intimate destination wedding on the shores of costa rica :)
Alicia says
Invite me! I prefer a small”ish” wedding (probably 100 – 150) guests so the bride and groom can talk to everyone, but it’s still a big, fun party!
Danielle Stratford says
INVITE ME! My fiance and I are in the process of planning our wedding and we are leaning toward the large family and friend filled wedding
Elizabeth in DC says
INVITE ME!
Emily says
INVITE ME!
I prefer smaller get-togethers, although having a large family makes that difficult! At big events, I always feel like I’m missing someone, and I wish I had more time to spend with each person.
Those invites are gorgeous, by the way, and I’d use them for an upcoming baby shower! :)
Brooke says
INVITE ME!
Our wedding was technically a destination wedding, as it was held in my husband’s home town of Albuquerque, NM. (We were living in Los Angeles at time.) So we had a smaller celebration with about 70 guests.
D says
INVITE ME – I prefer dinner and dancing with everyone loved by the couple!
Ashley says
Invite me! Just engaged and having a big ol’ family and friender in NorCal. I’d love to let them know where to go beautifully!
Ash says
Invite me!
Megan D. says
Invite Me!
We had a large-ish wedding with all our family and friends from around the country. If I could do it all over again I would do a small wedding with just immediate family and close friends – something simple and stress-free as possible!
Meg says
“INVITE ME!”
Big–gotta have all the loved ones there. It is a celebration of LOVE.
Michelle says
INVITE ME
I want a smaller, more intimate wedding. I like the idea of knowing everyone that shows up to the wedding and getting to talk to everyone there.
A friend of mine got married last year, and she planned two extra place settings at each of 7 tables so that she and her newlywed husband could eat one course at each table (yes, there were 7 small courses). It was such a great way for each guest to spend some time with the bride and groom on their special day, and also made every guest feel super important.
Tegan and Tage says
INVITE ME!
Best of both worlds– a small, intimate ceremony (maybe just the two of us) and then a huge reception with the whole family (and friends).
Catherine says
INVITE ME!
