Why even get print invitations? There are many reasons, such as their irreplaceable charm, which you can learn more about in our Gold Image Printing Blog post: The Need for Print Invitations.

4" x 6" - Compact

The smallest of the standard invitation card sizes, this also makes the perfect smaller wedding invitation card size. With invitations printed in this size, you'll be able to include everything you need, from the host and theme to the venue and starting time. Whether you're looking to keep your corporate event invitations sleek or want your private dinner to have die cut invitations that are compact but still personal, this is the right choice of invitation sizes for you! Order now!

5" x 7" - Common Standard

While there are always some exceptions to the rule, this is the choice of invitation sizes you'll find at virtually any wholesale invitation retailer. From business anniversary invitations to wedding invitations, you'll be hard-pressed to find a function for which 5 x 7 invitations don't work! This is a popular standard wedding invitation size, but that doesn't mean it is always the best option for you. Please bear in mind that some of the other common invitation sizes may work better for you depending on the amount of people attending your event, its level of intimacy, its theme or mood, and more! Get yours today!

5.5" x 8.5" - Standard Plus

From among the standard invitation sizes, this is one that frequently makes its appearance on a wedding invitation size guide. That's because it offers that same familiarity of our Common Standard invitation sizes, while also providing that bonus space to really flush out all your creativity to be printed onto the paper. You can go wild with illustrious designs that will pull people in and let them feel the excitement of your upcoming wedding. Standard Plus is also a fantastic choice for luxury or exclusive events such as gala invitations. Order now!

Custom Size & Shape

For many if not most of our invitations, you can also get customized invitation sizes. Completely personalize your open house invitations for example, or go for ultra thick wedding invitations whose invitation sizes fall completely off the (above) chart! 

Not satisfied with the standard rectangular or square shape that standard invitation sizes provide? Request a custom quote and let us know you're interested in die cutting. With the die cut lines you provide, we'll create any shape under the sun!

Fold or No Fold?

This is entirely up to you of course! We recommend going for a folded design if you want more room to personalize or add a fun note to guests by hand. It also helps with the humor of birthday cards or adding a surprise element of others.

Specialty Printing for All Invitation Sizes

No matter what your invitation sizes are, you'll be able to take advantage of our specialties! With a quick custom quote you can let us know if you're interested in soft touch laminate, embossing, debossing, foil stamping (using our foil color chart), or digital foil (limited colors)!

With all the big decisions made about your desired invitation sizes, the last thing you'll need to choose before proceeding is your quantity. If you have 100 guests, the knee jerk reaction is likely to order 100 invitations at your desired invitation sizes. However, things happen sometimes and you may accidentally miswrite an invitation or lose a few as you go about the enduring process of personalizing. Even if you're very careful, you may find yourself wanting to make some last minute invitations or to keep a handful of invitations as keepsakes for yourselves. We generally recommend ordering 10 to 20% extra. So instead of 100, maybe go for 120! Get started on your order of invitations now!
