Our elegant foil invitations are fully customised for you for the perfect finish. Tweak any aspect of the cards to make them just right for you. Opt for a single card on its own or add additional cards to include RSVP, Gift Message, or other information. We are careful to select only the best quality card so that we can create something for you and your guests to hold and cherish forever.
In order to keep costs down we have a minimum order quantity of 30 for each variation (e.g. day, evening etc.)! The higher the quantity, the lower the price! Please ensure that you order enough invitations and include spares for any late additions to the guest list. RSVP envelopes & matching envelope liners or stickers are also available (without foiling).
VARIATIONS EXPLAINED CARD COLOUR: Card used for foiling has changed over the past year as manufacturers worldwide have struggled with supply. All card used for foiling must be exceptionally smooth and the slightest change in the manufacturing process means some card types are no longer suitable for foiling. We have updated our stock for 2022 to only include the best card types available: Warm White Satimat – A smooth 350gsm card in a warm white colour. It may differ slightly in shade from previous samples. Cream Conqueror – A smooth 320gsm card in a warm pale *cream colour.
Due to a mill going into administration, this has been replaced with an even paler, white CX22. It’s the same card type as before but much lighter in colour. We have been assured that another company has bought up the rights and is hoping to start producing the cream version again in the summer of 2023. Please be aware that samples were all on the original cream so may not match your full order.
Manufacturers make minor changes to their card stock all the time without prior notice so there can be slight shade variations from the samples as they may have been printed on older stock. We will always include a swatch of the updated card type with your sample if this is the case.
FOIL COLOUR: We offer Gold, Rose Gold, and Silver foiling. We have swatches of all 3 colours available so if you’d like to see a sample, please order a Generic Sample of any foiling product. We do not yet have samples of all foiling products available. Please add a note if you’d like us to include additional foil colour swatches.
DAY/EVENING: If you would like different day and evening invitations, please add them to your basket separately. The minimum order quantity applies for each variation including a different language or even a slight variation to the wording.
INVITE ONLY: This is the invitation card on its own, without any additional cards. You can also opt to have printing on the back of the card with or without foiling. You will receive a digital proof so that you can check that you are completely happy with the design and can make any amendments before we send them to print.
INVITE +1 CARD: You will receive a personalised invitation card and one half-sized card of your choice (RSVP/Menu/Info/Gift Msg etc). They are fully customised for you.

You can have the additional cards with or without foiling.

ADDRESSED INVITATION ENVELOPES: To save you the time of addressing each envelope by hand, select this option and have us do the hard work for you. All we need is a spreadsheet or table with all the guest names and addresses. Each line on your spreadsheet represents one envelope. Each column on your spreadsheet represents one line on the envelope. Please ask us for instructions if unsure.
MATCHING ENVELOPE LINERS: Envelope liners can be customised to match your design. Or pick any other design from our website. Please note that they do not come with foiling.
MATCHING STICKERS: We can create matching stickers to add that little extra something to the invitation envelopes. Stickers do not come with foiling.
RSVP ENVELOPES: Opt to have RSVP envelopes to go with your invitations. For full-sized A5 invitations, the RSVP envelopes are C6. These can be personalised with your return address. RSVP envelopes for Mini A6 invitations are C7 and cannot be personalised.
MATCHING RSVP ENVELOPE LINERS: RSVP envelope liners can be customised to match your design. Or pick any other design from our website. Please note that they do not come with foiling.

Once we receive your order a member of our design team will create electronic proofs using the information you have supplied usually within 2 - 3 working days. The proofs will be emailed to you. We do not limit the number of changes you can make to your proofs within reason. Once you are happy with them, let us know and we will send them to print. Nothing goes to print without your approval. If after placing an order you haven’t heard from us within 3 working days, please get in touch.
Foiling orders take longer to produce and are normally printed within 10 – 12 working days after you have approved any proofs but please allow up to 15 working days. The whole process normally takes around 3 - 4 weeks plus delivery time depending on the product and whether amendments are made to the proofs. If you need your order faster than this then please contact us for availability before placing your order.
Please be aware that foil writing is always harder to read due to its beautiful shine. We are happy to put any information you like on the cards but do not take responsibility for them being hard to read. The more text that is added, the smaller the text, particularly on mini cards. We recommend viewing proofs at actual size.
Due to the work involved setting up each and every card for foiling, each invite variation must be a separate order (e.g. Day, Evening, German invites etc). Please email us for clarification if you are unsure.
Please note that once we send foiling orders to print, the order cannot be changed! By sending them to print you confirm that all the details are correct on the proofs. Proofs are final and you are responsible for checking each and every detail.
