We realize that by doing this somewhat last minute, we need to get invitations out to at least out-of-town family ASAP. I looked into the common discount sellers- VistaPrint, 123 Print, etc. and really couldn't find anything below $130 for 80 invites (and that was just the invites!). Jason and I took a walk over to Office Depot today though, and noticed that even the small store in Hyde Park had a few wedding invitation kits which were fairly cheap- $35 for 50, and that included invitations, envelopes, note cards, etc. That led us to investigating the whole "kit" option more seriously. I have an inkjet printer that works fairly well (other than it jamming roughly 25% of the time, but I can deal with that to save money!), so we should be able to print them at home. I looked at Staples and Office Depot online, and most of their stuff was pretty standard- silver/gold borders, hearts, etc.- which didn't appeal to us. But then I thought, I wonder if Target has anything. And it turns out they actually have some really pretty designs for good prices.
These are the ones I am currently leaning towards, because for $34 for 30, it includes invitations and response cards, and envelopes for both. And I feel like the plant theme goes well with our forest BBQ idea.

This one I really like as well, and goes a bit more with the colors I'm thinking (blue being the main one). It's cheaper- $29.99 for 40, but it doesn't include response cards.
