Greeting Card Wedding Invitations Frequently Asked Questions

What is a greeting card style wedding invitation?

A greeting card wedding invitation is a folded style of invitation. The standard option is for a wedding invitation that opens up to measure 210x148mm. If you have lots of details to share, add a pocket and a couple of inserts – the biggest insert is 130x95mm and the second insert is 130x85mm to stack nicely in front of the bigger one.

When closed, the invitation measures 105x148mm and fits into a C6 envelope, which is supplied with your invitations.

I like this design but my wedding colours are different, can I change the colours?

• In short: Yes!
• There is a lot of flexibility for changing the printed colours of the invitations and information cards themselves, as they are digitally printed. There is no extra charge for this, however you may wish to purchase a printed proof, so you can check the colours are exactly what you want before we print the whole set.
• You can also opt to change the mailing envelopes to complement your colour scheme. White or kraft envelopes are included at no charge, or you can upgrade to a coloured or metallic envelope. There are also RSVP envelopes available in a wider range of colours depending on the size needed.

What card options do I have for my wedding invitations?

I’m so glad you asked – we have detailed information on each card option here. A lot of the character and vibe of your wedding can be conveyed by selecting a different card option, for example an organic earth feel with a kraft brown card, or a luxe event with a metallic card option. You can also purchase a wedding invitation sample pack to help you make your decision. The cost of the sample pack is redeemable against your future wedding invitation order.

When should I send out my wedding invitations?

We’ve covered off our recommended wedding invitation timeline here.

Do I have to assemble the invitations myself?

Your greeting card wedding invitations will arrived very nearly ready to hand out to your guests! They’ll be folded closed, and if you’ve chosen a pocket, you just pop in the insert cards. We do not add on any embellishments that “close” your invitations. That’s because you’ll need to see what guest name is on each invitation, for when addressing and stuffing envelopes.

How should I word my wedding invitations?

We’ve compiled all our tips, tricks and some free checklists and worksheets here: How to word your wedding invitations.

Our designers are happy to help with wording your invitations though – we will suggest tweaks and can advise on appropriate etiquette if required.

What’s the turnaround time for my personalised wedding invites?

The entire process from design to revisions, printing and posting your wedding invites takes only around two weeks. That means our design team will be working on your mock-up invite shortly after you order. You can expect to receive your digital mock-up within a couple of days, to let you check it before we have your invites printed.

Once you’ve given us final sign off, your order will be printed and ready to send within 3-5 business days. All our stationery items are printed on a high quality commercial digital press and trimmed to size with a commercial grade guillotine. If your order includes any embellishments or assembly, we will complete this once the stationery has been printed. This will add 2-5 business days to your order (it varies depending on the size and complexity of your order). More information on wedding invitation turnaround times is available on our FAQ page, here.
