Buying Guide
- Paper Weight And Texture: Linen-textured surfaces add elegance and readability. Consider 80 lb for durability and 200 gsm for thicker invitation stock. Heavier weights resist bending at the table and look more premium.
- Size And Layout: Common sizes include 4″ x 9″ for rack cards and 5″ x 7″ for invitations. Larger formats like 4.25″ x 11″ provide extra space for longer program descriptions or meal choices.
- Printer Compatibility: Check if your printer handles the chosen weight and thickness. Some high-gsm cardstock may require manual feed or specialized settings. Laser printers typically print well on heavier cards; inkjet is versatile but may bleed on some stocks.
- Envelope And Hosting: Ensure envelope compatibility (e.g., #10 for 4″ x 9″ cards) and consider whether the cards will be mailed or displayed on tables. Rack-card-ready options fit standard holders for easy display.
- Color And Finish: Cream vs. white affects legibility and wedding theme. Cream tones pair well with warm color palettes; white offers crisp contrast with dark ink for readability.
- Durability And Finish: Linen textures hide minor printer imperfections and maintain a premium look. If cards will be handled aggressively during seating or transport, choose thicker, sturdier cardstock.
- Cost Per Card And Quantity: Plan based on guest count and the number of program inserts required (e.g., menus, place cards, and programs). Bulk packs reduce per-card cost while meeting exact needs.
- Sustainability: Look for recycled content and responsibly sourced fiber to align with eco-conscious wedding planning.
- Adaptability: Blank stock offers flexibility for handwritten elements or printable designs, enabling on-site customization as needed during the event.
