wedding invites: who has awesome envelopes?

i'm going to be designing and printing my own wedding invitations on my own paper. i would LOVE to have a really unique envelope to go with them (without having to make them myself)... paper-source.com is no help and the other envelope sites i found are just really... generic...

i love the envelopes that include a pocket on one side for the response card but have been unable to locate them online anywhere....

i know this is a pretty vague question, but... any ideas?

That particular type seems to be called a 'pocket fold invitation' by one place, and I did see a few 'gatefold envelopes with pockets' from smaller manufacturers/resellers(eg this 'beachy' themed place.).

I ordered my wedding invitations from invitesite.com a few months ago. They have really beautiful paper. While it doesn't look like they list envelopes for sale separately, I recommend contacting them directly and asking them if they have what you're looking for. They were really nice to work with, and when the order came it was padded with strips of all the other invitation papers - awesome stuff!

If it is pocketfolds that you're looking for, I like Cards and Pockets. That's who we're using, I think. I haven't seen the actual pocketfolds in person, but I just got samples of their card stock that they use for them and the paper is pretty nice, as far as I can judge. Paper and more seems to have pretty much the same thing, but have less selection for color and I think you have to buy in units of 50. Cutcardstock.com has some neat envelopes like the petalfolds linked here.

I have spent way too much time scouring the internets for pocketfolds and suchlike, if you want a link dump of the various wedding invitation supply places I've found, feel free to mefimail me!

Oh, I got my invitations from Indian Wedding Card and they were just amazing (and definitely unique designs). I'm sure you could email them to get just envelopes or pocketfolds, they were super flexible about everything when I was ordering my invitations.

Other places - mygatsby.com, www.lcipaper.com (I got paper for my programs and table numbers from them).
