Question

Does paper thickness really matter for wedding invitations?

Answer

Absolutely. Thickness is one of the first things guests notice, and it quietly signals how much the event matters.

  • Thicker paper feels more premium and gives the piece a sense of importance.
  • A 32pt invitation is rigid and hefty, so the difference is obvious out of the envelope.
  • 16pt, about credit-card thickness, is a strong middle ground when budget is tight.
  • Going below 14pt undercuts a formal look.
