Wedding Invitations & Save the Date Cards
Your wedding invitation is often the first glimpse your guests will have of your special day. Whether you're planning an elegant formal wedding, a casual outdoor celebration, or something completely unique, professionally printed Wedding Invitations and Save the Date Cards can help set the tone for your event.
Discount Printing Service offers affordable, high-quality Wedding Invitation Printing in several popular sizes and formats. Choose from flat or folding invitations, matching envelopes, and Save the Date Cards. We can print your existing artwork or help you create a professional, press-ready design from your ideas.
Save the Date Cards
Save the Date Cards give your family and friends advance notice of your wedding date before the formal invitations are mailed. They are particularly useful when guests may need to make travel arrangements, reserve accommodations, or plan time away from work.
A Save the Date Card generally includes:
- The names of the couple
- Wedding date
- City or general location
- Wedding website, if applicable
- Optional QR code linking to your wedding website
You do not need to include all of the formal wedding details on your Save the Date Card. The formal Wedding Invitation will provide those details later.
Our Save the Date Cards can be mailed as postcard-style self-mailers or paired with a matching A6 Envelope.
Choosing the Right Wedding Invitation Size
Discount Printing Service offers several A-size invitation formats. Each provides a different amount of space and presentation.
A2 Wedding Invitations
A2 Invitations have a finished size of 4.25" x 5.5". Their compact size makes them a good choice when you want a simple, attractive invitation without a large amount of information.
A2 invitations work well for:
- Simple wedding invitations
- Small ceremonies
- Bridal showers
- Engagement announcements
- RSVP cards
- Other wedding-related events
See our A2 Announcements & Invitations - Flat Cards and A2 Folding Cards.
A6 Wedding Invitations
A6 Invitations measure 4.5" x 6.25" and provide more room than an A2 while maintaining a convenient size for mailing.
A6 invitations are a versatile choice for wedding invitations when you need additional room for event information, graphics or photographs.
See our A6 Announcements & Invitations - Flat Cards and A6 Folding Cards.
A7 Wedding Invitations
A7 Invitations have a finished size of 5" x 7", making them one of the most popular choices for invitations. The larger format provides plenty of room for wedding details, photographs, decorative elements and other information.
A7 is an excellent choice when you want a traditional invitation size with a generous design area.
See our A7 Announcements & Invitations - Flat Cards and A7 Folding Cards.
A8 Wedding Invitations
A8 Invitations provide the largest format in our A-size announcement and invitation selection. The 5.25" x 7.875" flat format gives you additional space for photographs, graphics and detailed wedding information.
A8 can be a good choice when your invitation design needs more room or you want a larger presentation.
See our A8 Announcements & Invitations - Flat Cards and A8 Folding Cards.
Flat or Folding Wedding Invitations?
One of the first decisions when selecting your wedding invitations is whether you want a flat invitation or a folding invitation.
Flat Wedding Invitations
Flat invitations provide a clean, simple presentation and give you one primary design surface. They are especially useful when your invitation information can fit comfortably on one side or when you want a photograph or other design element to be the main focus.
Flat invitations can also be printed on both sides when additional information is needed.
Folding Wedding Invitations
Folding invitations provide additional panels for organizing your wedding information. They can be especially useful when you want to include more details without making the finished invitation larger.
Depending on your design, different panels can be used for:
- Wedding ceremony information
- Reception information
- RSVP instructions
- Directions
- Wedding website information
- Photos
- Additional notes for guests
Our A2 Folding Cards, A6 Folding Cards, A7 Folding Cards and A8 Folding Cards provide several options for creating a more detailed wedding invitation.
Wedding Invitation Envelopes
A professionally printed invitation deserves a quality envelope to complete the presentation. We offer matching A2, A6, A7 and A8 Envelopes for our announcement and invitation sizes.
Our envelopes can be ordered blank or printed with your return address, depending on the product options.
Matching envelopes are useful for maintaining a consistent appearance throughout your invitation package and making your wedding correspondence look polished and professional.
See our A2 Envelopes, A6 Envelopes, A7 Envelopes and A8 Envelopes.
Wedding Invitations, RSVP Cards and Envelopes
A wedding invitation package may include more than the primary invitation.
Depending on your needs, your mailing may include:
- Wedding Invitation
- RSVP card
- RSVP envelope
- Reception information
- Directions or accommodations information
- Wedding website information
- Other inserts
An RSVP card gives guests a convenient way to respond to your invitation. You can include the requested response date, meal selections, number of guests, or other information you need to collect.
If you need a separate card for RSVP information or another part of your wedding stationery, contact us to discuss the best format for your project.
What Should Be Included on a Wedding Invitation?
The information on your wedding invitation will depend on the type and formality of your wedding, but most invitations include:
- Names of the couple
- Wedding date
- Ceremony time
- Ceremony location
- City and state
- Reception information, if applicable
- RSVP instructions
- Wedding website, if applicable
You may also want to include:
- Dress code
- Reception address
- Accommodation information
- Transportation information
- QR code
- Special instructions for guests
Try to keep the primary invitation focused on the information your guests need most. Additional details can be placed on an RSVP card, insert, wedding website or other enclosure.
Wedding Invitation Design Ideas
Your wedding invitation design can reflect the style and personality of your wedding.
Popular design elements include:
- Wedding colors
- Floral or botanical artwork
- Elegant typography
- Photographs
- Decorative borders
- Monograms or initials
- Venue illustrations
- Maps or location graphics
- QR codes
- Custom artwork
When preparing your artwork for printing, make sure the final design includes the appropriate bleed and keeps important text and graphics safely away from the finished edges.
If you already have your wedding invitation artwork, we can print your press-ready PDF. If you have an idea but need assistance creating the finished artwork, graphic design services are available.
