Memorial Printing for Programs, Cards and Thank You Notes

Memorial printing here means four pieces for a service: Funeral Programs in six sizes from 5.5 by 8.5 to 11 by 25.5 inches, Memorial Cards and Sympathy Cards in 14 sizes from 2.5 by 2.5 to 6 by 11 inches, and Funeral Thank You Cards at 4.25 by 5.5, 5 by 7 or 6 by 6 inches. Every piece offers production up to 3 business days and lists a same-day option, so a program can still be printed when the service is days away.

Memorial printing, start to finish

Pick the pieces the service needs, upload a photo at 300 DPI or higher at print size, add the name, the dates and the words, and approve the free digital proof. On a memorial order the proof is where you catch a misspelled name or a wrong date.

Memorial prints by size and stock

Programs print on 100# silk/matte or gloss text, 70# uncoated text or 14pt gloss cover, flat or folded in half, from 50 for $57.11, with a perforation as an option for a tear-off response. Memorial and Sympathy Cards print on 22 stocks from 10pt to 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice, from 50 for $16.48, and Funeral Thank You Cards on 20 stocks from 25 for $19.77, with matching white wove envelopes as an option.

A memorial card for each guest

The piece guests take home is the memorial card: a photo, a verse and the dates on a 2.5 by 2.5, 3 by 4 or 4 by 6 inch card, small enough for a wallet or a prayer book. Order enough for every guest plus extra for the family. Variable data can print a different name or verse on each card in one order.

Traditional Services and Celebrations of Life

The service sets the size. A traditional service suits an 8.5 by 11 inch program folded in half and 2.5 by 2.5 or 3 by 4 inch memorial cards in a quiet palette. A celebration of life can run warmer, with 4 by 6 or 5 by 5 inch photo-led cards. For a first anniversary, the same design can be reprinted with an updated verse.

Photos, Words and Paper Weight

Start with the highest resolution photo you have, so nothing looks soft. Keep the words simple: a name, the dates, a short verse and perhaps a brief biography, in a clean, readable font. Keep the same palette, fonts and photo treatment across the program, the cards and the thank you notes. An uncoated stock feels quiet and takes a signature; High Gloss UV gives a photo more color.

Memorial Printing FAQ

Which program size suits a funeral service?

An 8.5 by 11 inch sheet folded in half gives four 5.5 by 8.5 inch panels: a photo on the front, the order of service inside and a verse or biography on the back. Larger sheets up to 11 by 25.5 inches are available for a longer program.

What paper stock works best for memorial cards?

A heavier card such as 16pt or 18pt uncoated feels substantial and takes a pen, while 14pt or 16pt gloss suits a photo-heavy card. The 22 stocks run from 10pt to 26pt Metallic Pearl Ice.

Can each memorial card carry a different verse?

Yes. Choose variable data on Memorial Cards or Sympathy Cards and send the list of verses or names, and each card prints its own text from the same design.

Do I need my own design, or can I use a template?

Upload your own design or start from a template and add the photos and words. Upload images at 300 DPI or higher, and check every name and date on the free digital proof.
