I thought these were a bit expensive, but thought they really completed the look for my invitations, so I ordered them. I had ordered a sample previously and it was fine, but when I got the actual product in the mail, the belly bands were about 3 inches bigger than the invitation itself. As a result, I had to cut about 2 inches off of each belly band. It was a lot of work, but I am still happy with the outcome of my invitations.

I was not sure how I would feel about this "belly band", so I ordered a sample to see how it looked with the invitations. Everyone loved them! I liked them too, however, when I bent them to wrap them around the invitation, the paper sort of cracked on the folded part and the white color showed through. That was still not enough to turn me off from them though. I love them and think that add a special something to the invites.

Two issues:

1) Thought that there would be something to 'stick' together the band or hold it in place.
2) When you bend the band the colour immediately begins to fray and you can see the white behind. We liked the style, but this makes it look cheap.

It would be great if there was more information up front (such as the fact that we would need to purchase our own glue or tape or something to hold together the band.). After shipping, we spent $70+ dollars on 100 bands and will not be using any of them.

My fiance and I were extremely happy with our choice. Once again you have wow'd us with your products.

Beautiful!
