For other occasions, your design can be customized to match the event, whether you're creating graduation invitations, baby shower invitations, bridal shower invitations, birthday invitations, anniversary announcements, or corporate event invitations.

For the best printing results, artwork should be supplied as a properly prepared, press-ready PDF with the correct finished size and recommended bleed.

What to Include on an A2 Invitation

The information you include will depend on the type of event. Wedding Invitations commonly include the names of the couple, wedding date, time, venue, location, reception information, RSVP instructions, and wedding website or QR code.

For graduations, baby showers, bridal showers, birthdays, anniversaries, and other events, include the important information your guests need to know, such as the event date, time, location, RSVP information, dress code, or other special instructions.

Because the A2 format is compact, consider using a larger invitation size or an additional insert when your event requires a significant amount of information.
