{Deals} Invitations for you & invitations FOR you.
Picking out wedding invitations just got cheaper. No, easier. No, greener. Wait, all of the above. Have y’all seen this bizniss? Cocodot.com is a pretty new but super rad resource you can use to search for and buy lovely and affordable wedding invites, engagement announcements, and thank you cards. They offer customizable, fresh, and stylish electronic invitation suites (they’ll offer printed options this summer) and their website seems superdy duperdy easy to use. Not only are you getting chic invites, they are cheap wedding invites as well and don’t everybody lurve that? They are the perfect invites for your budget wedding!
Palm Springs perfect.
They feature a wedding package for just $149 smackeroos – all inclusive with coordinated themed suites including your engagement announcements, engagement party invitations, save the dates, rehearsal dinner, bridal shower and wedding invitations, and thank you cards, with the option of creating your own, and customizable greetings for specific guests or specific events, fonts and colors. And they boast communication and guest management tools as well as a wedding home page and gift registry linky features. I’m like whoa, that’s a lot of goodies in one bag. Had this been around when I was planning, I’d be all up in there.
Um, yum.
So here’s the loot: to celebrate the official launch of Cocodot, they’re rocking a sweet promo code for the Premium Membership (18 months of unlimited cards and invitations, yo) at just $59 bones (saves ya $90, holler). Enter the phrase “cocobride” when you checkout. For just a taste of the site before using it on all of your invites use “cocoEarth2010″ for one free party invitation and try before you buy.
Methinks its a pretty sweet deal. Anyone out there trying it? Let us know if you do!

Just checked out Cocodot – they have some beautiful designs! Thanks for the tip!
They have some gorgeous designs! Unfortunately for me, most of my family is still in the stone age and doesn't have the internet, so we have to stick with paper. I'm keeping it to a minimun though…
Wow, I should check this out!
Too bad, I'm not getting married
Is there a deadline for the Cocodot coupon codes?
Nope! The codes should remain valid for several months!
Wondering if they have more designs coming out or if you can customize….
I have to comment on a sweet Minted deal (that we are using)-
If you're referred by a previous member, you get a $25 credit.
After singing up- if you use this deal to start referring your own friends and family, and they buy things, you start getting $25 credits for each of them.
So, if you have 11 members of your bridal party/family buy things you might use on Minted for (let's say 2 journals with free shipping at $16 each)- they pay $3.50 for each journal, and you have $300 in credits.
Which means you got $300 stationary for $77. (With 22 journals to boot!)
Here's a link if you want to start out with your own credit. (And be sure to check out all the positive reviews of Minted on weddingbee!
