Carlson Craft

I DETEST working with Carlson Craft! They are so difficult to work with. To get my invitations done I had to call them 10 different times. It was agonizing.

Best value for price. Given proofs before printing and shipping was super fast.

Everything went awesome with invitations! They turned out perfectly

We ordered our invitations online with Carlson Crafts and had a great experience. They offered a discount online and had a huge selection of styles. We picked what we wanted, picked the wording, font color and style etc... and ordered it and a short time later they arrived at our door. Very easy and convenient. I like not having to leave my house :)

I only needed twenty-five wedding invitations, so I choose to go with a rather informal “Seal N’ Send Invitation” by Carlson Craft. Through their website you can pick the style you like, then browse colors, fonts, and wording choices. Their site was very user-friendly. You have to e-mail Carlson Craft to find a vendor in your area, and once you’ve done that, they send in the design for you. We did all of our correspondence through e-mail as that was easiest for me. I placed the order with my local vendor and met her at a neutral location to pick up my invitations and give her the payment. I found the whole process to be very easy, but wasn’t thrilled with my invitations when we met. They didn’t look exactly like I had pictured (the font and spacing were off), but I am extremely picky. If you are looking for a quick, simple, rather inexpensive wedding invitation, this might be the route for you. I would just recommend paying extra for the proof.

I liked working through Alfred Angelo for the invites. They helped me out with wording and style and corrected everything that I needed to change at last minute. The invites themselves from Carlson Craft were beautiful and everyone loved them.

I used Carlson Craft for my wedding invitations, and thank you note stationary. I thought my invitations were exquisite! They had so many options for invitations, it was hard to pick a favorite, but I am very pleased with the one I chose.

We had two receptions and the pocket invites were perfect for us. We were able to get really nice invites for almost half of the price, through Savvi. they were a simple black and white, but we were pretty simple. I think they were prefect for us. They had a great balance of class and elegance.

The invitations were nice enough but we had wanted more green options, which they did not have too many of. We also had to reprint the response cards as we forgot to write the dinner choices on them the first time- I feel as though the company could have done a better job at directing us and asking for the menu options. Otherwise, the invites were nice and we received them promptly.

From start to finish, I enjoyed working with my representative in planning and ordering my invitations. When we received them, they were better than expected!

Our experience with Carlson Craft in ordering our invitations was great. It was easy enough to plug everything online. It was just a bit of a pain to have to call them to clarify some things. The invitations came out perfectly though!

We wanted disney themed invitations and accessories for our wedding. We are big fans, especially of mickey mouse. We looked into finding some good stuff, and were willing to pay extra for the extra shipping etc being that we are in Canada, and it is a smaller market here, however we discovered that Carlson Craft felt that Canada is TOO small a market and chose not to get liscencing to sell disney products to canadians. Having spoken to many friends and other brides here in the great north, I know of lots of people who would buy these products should they be available!
It made me a little cranky, as Carlson Craft carries some great quality stuff and they are such a big company but failed to get my business because of a technicality, that I personally think they are wrong about the market. I know I'd be willing to pay extra to get the products I want for my wedding day, and I'm sure most of the other disney fans out there also would, given the chance. Instead of getting another non-liscenced product from Carlson Craft I chose to go with a completely different company and get plain invitations.!

Our invitations took a lot longer to deliver than we were told. Carlson craft did not do a good job of communicating the problems with us. We were told that they would have our initials on the front and they did not. The final invitations were nice.

Very pricey, but turned out beautiful

Invitations were on the bottom of my list of where I wanted to allocate our budget. And after comparing prices, I found Carlson Craft to be the most reasonable option. You can order online or through vendors. Their most simple and cheapest invitation runs $0.77 per card. The most reasonable vendor I could find (even compared to printing them myself).

I knew exactly what I wanted with our wedding invitations, but everywhere we looked it was just too expensive for each one. So when we discussed the invitations with our planner, she showed me from her album of Carlson Craft invitations something similar, and that she had couples before order from Carlson Craft through her and that she put everything else together for us (I really wanted the "present" invitations where you would open it, and on one side was the actual invitation and the other side layered was the RSVP card, map, and etc.) Her discount applied, and we got the invitations at a really great price, and she assembled everything else for us, and they turned out beautiful!

Our invitations came in fast and looked wonderful, but we had a couple of issues dealing with them. We first ordered our STD cards online, and they came perfectly with no issues. However, our invitations gave us such a headache. We ordered them from Sacino's, and I can tell you that my mom, my MIL, and husband AND I all reviewed the form before we gave it to the attendant. I mean, we all looked over it to make sure the wording was correct AND that the spelling was correct too. The invitations were then mailed to my mom because she volunteered to assemble everything and send them out for us so that we wouldn't have to bother. By the time we got our invitation, we noticed that not only was my husband's name spelled incorrectly, but so was my parents names! WTF?? They invitations were beautiful, but I wish we would have been there once the invitations came in so that we would have caught the error in the first place.
