Question
What paper finish works best for RSVP cards?
Answer
Because guests write directly on RSVP cards, the finish needs to hold ink and pencil cleanly. Writable surfaces win here.
| Finish | Writable? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Matte / uncoated | Yes | Ideal, no smearing |
| Linen or cotton texture | Yes | Premium feel, still writable |
| Glossy | No | Ink smears, pencil slips |
Skip glossy coatings for any card meant to be written on. Matte, uncoated, or textured stocks give guests a surface that actually takes their reply.
