FI and I are finally settled in sunny California, and I can go back to attempting to plan this wedding <tired/>. To cut to the chase, I need to sort out my invitations, and I'm having a hard time. I'm looking for winter themed invites, and they're almost nowhere to be found. I found one that I really liked, but when I got the sample, the paper they used was very thin, and the whole invitation, though beautiful, was pretty fliimsy. Here it is for reference: http://www.invitationsbydawn.com/We_ViewEns.cfm?sItemCode=WedEns7366&sCatalogCode=WedEnsDD&iStartRow=1&lCriteria=244&strcontinue=yes&strsearch=yes&format=WedEnsDDa Does anyone know where I can find winter themed invites? At this point, I think it would be best for me to go somewhere locally to look at samples, so if anyone knows where to look in the San Jose area, I would be eternally greatful. The only place I've been to so far has been Paper Source, and they're pretty expensive. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bringing Brooklyn charm to California since 2008

There's also a 'Cards and Stationery' category. I would browse through the whole bay area not just San Jose. Welcome to the area by the way! I'm up in Mountain View!

Unfortunately, we haven't visited any of the places yet . So, this weekend it's first on the list (I actually made a list), and we're going to look at invitations no matter how much FI wants to go to Costco. Bah! Thanks for the welcome, Violet, I'm really enjoying the area. I can't say that about the heat though <sweaty/>. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bringing Brooklyn charm to California since 2008

Also if you're willing to drive up to SF or Berkeley, you'll find many more options. Check out Gump's for custom invites, and there's a real cute custom letterpress place near the Gourmet Ghetto (right by Chez Panisse) that does nice work.
