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.
| Thickness | Feel | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| 14pt | Minimum for formal stationery | Do not go lower |
| 16pt | Solid, everyday premium | 0.016 in thick |
| 32pt | Bold, rigid, luxurious | About a credit card |
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.
