I loved how easy it was to customize this invitation and they turned out beautifully. I had to take a leap of faith though since there was no way to order a sample prior to ordering the whole lot of invitations. But that leap of faith paid off and the invites are beautiful! They are a big smaller than I imagined they would be and somewhat tricky to assemble. While the assembly price is expensive, it is probably worth it to save yourself from having to painstakingly thread the ribbons and fold the invitations. They do come pre-scored for folding, which was helpful, but there were a couple that just did not want to fold properly despite the pre-scoring. So, I would suggest ordering a few more than you think you'll need and pay for assembly (or get your friends and family to help and bribe them well)!
