There is no doubt the the cost of the wedding invitation will not be very high when it is compared to the price of your wedding dress or wedding reception catering.

They would rather make their wedding dress perfect rather than making the invitation special. It is very true that couples will just sacrifice the wedding invitation when budget is not allowed. Taking a case in Hong Kong for example, a single pre wedding photos will probably cost a couple about USD45. Yet they will still purchase a hundred photos. They will do it even if it is out of the budget. However, the couples will never do that when it comes to the wedding invitations.
