Question

What paper thickness works best for wedding invitations?

Answer

For wedding invitations, 16pt is a strong baseline and 32pt is the luxury move. Anything below 14pt undercuts a formal look.

18pt uncoated cover is a step up from 16pt for a heftier feel. Weight and texture are hard to judge on screen, so order a sample pack before a large run.
