Invitations and Save the Dates

So we sat down last night and went over our wedding budget yet again. LOL! Fun times. So we have our venue covered and our catering. We know the price of my dress and have an approximate time of purchasing it. So now we are onto the invitations and if we want to do Save the Dates. We went to Micheals(picture below) last night and saw some really cute one's for 40.00 for 30 so we would need 5 sets of them. They include everything including the rsvp, envelopes, etc. My parents have a great printer we can do them off there. I'm still going to search around. 

Save the dates we don't even know if we are totally going to do. Only reason I want to do them is because as we all know May is a busy month for everyone weddings, baby showers, graduations, vacations, and all. So I would need a really inexpensive way to print those. Also, I wouldn't want to put them out till November or January. Or maybe we can incoporate it into our Christmas card who knows.

Also, we need to find officiant. We are having an outside ceremony and us being two different religions we don't want a religious ceremony. Just the basic vows and the here's Mr. and Mrs. Thiel! lol! 

If you have any tips or advice I would love to have some. Thank you all so much for all your love and support and happiness for us. It truly means so much to us since this is something that mean the world to us. =)
