Question

What paper stock works best for graduation invitations?

Answer

Thicker stocks make the biggest impression, and graduation is a moment worth marking with a card that feels substantial. The right weight depends on how formal you want the invitation to feel.

StockThickness feelImpression
16pt card stockAbout as thick as a credit cardSturdy and professional
32pt ultra-thickRoughly double the weightPremium, luxurious keepsake

Match the stock to the formality of the occasion: a lighter card works for a casual open house, while ultra-thick stock suits a milestone celebration.
