Give Your Wedding Invitation Real Metallic Shine
The couple’s names shine in genuine gold, silver, or copper when this invitation meets the light. Instead of flat ink alone, a thin layer of metallic foil is pressed onto the sheet, so a monogram or a border shines wherever it sits. A set of 500 foil wedding invitations starts at $421.91, rated 4.5 out of 5 across 21 reviews, and it sets the tone for the whole day the moment it arrives.
Your wording and artwork print in full color first, on 16pt silk laminated or 14pt uncoated cover, then the foil goes on in 1 of 7 colors wherever you mark it: a monogram, the couple’s names or a border. Couples pick foil when the invitation is the first piece of the wedding a guest holds, and many keep it after the day.
Foil invitations start at 500 cards, $421.91 or about 84 cents a card, and the per-card cost falls at each tier toward 25,000, so a larger mailing costs far less per card than a small test run. The tiers below give the set total for each count.
What Are Foil Wedding Invitations
Foil wedding invitations are invitation cards finished with a metallic foil layer pressed onto the paper, so names, monograms, and borders shine in real metal. At 4OVER4.COM they print full color on 2 premium stocks, in 4 sizes from 4 by 6 inch to 5 by 7 inch, with 7 foil colors and foil on the front, the back, or both sides, all chosen on this page.
The invitation is two layers. The full color layer carries your artwork and wording, and the foil press adds shine exactly where you place it, so the names or the monogram read brighter than the rest of the card. If you prefer texture to shine, the Embossed Wedding Invitations raise the design off the sheet instead, and the two sit side by side as the premium picks in the suite.
How Much Do Foil Wedding Invitations Cost
Foil wedding invitations start at $421.91 for 500 cards at 4OVER4.COM, about 84 cents per card. The price scales across 8 quantity tiers up to 25,000, and the per-card cost keeps dropping as the run grows, reaching roughly 27 cents per card at the top tier. Foil coverage, stock, ink, and Spot UV adjust the total, and the price panel shows the exact number before you order.
The per-card cost halves between 500 and 2,500 cards. A run of 2,500 cards is $1,056.56, 5,000 run $1,526.67, and a 25,000 card run is $6,733.08, where each card lands near 27 cents. There are 8 quantity tiers in all, from the 500-card minimum up to 25,000. Heavier foil coverage, full color on both sides, or a Spot UV coat shift the total, and you can also apply 4OVER4 loyalty coins at checkout for up to 10% off the order. Set your guest count on the slider below to see the set total and the per-card cost at that count.
What Foil Colors, Ink, and Finishes Can You Choose
4OVER4.COM offers 7 foil colors for wedding invitations, including gold, silver, and copper, and you can place the foil on the front, the back, or both sides. Ink prints 4/0 front only, 4/1 front plus a black back, or 4/4 full color on both sides, and an optional Spot UV coat can be added to the front, the back, or both sides.
Pick from 7 foil colors, with gold, silver, and copper leading the list, then decide where the foil lands: front only, back only, or both sides. Your ink coverage is separate, so you can run full color on the front with a blank or black back (4/0 or 4/1) or go full color on both sides (4/4) for a printed reverse. An optional Spot UV coat adds a clear gloss accent on the front, the back, or both sides, separate from the metallic foil, so a monogram or border can catch the light even where there is no foil. If you want shine without a foil press, the Metallic Invitations print on a shimmer stock instead.
What Sizes and Paper Stocks Are Available
4OVER4.COM prints foil wedding invitations in 4 sizes: 4 by 6 inch, 4.25 by 5.5 inch, 4.25 by 6 inch, and 5 by 7 inch, with 4 by 6 inch as the default. Two premium stocks are available: 16pt Silk Laminated and 14pt Uncoated Cover, both chosen to hold foil cleanly.
Size sets the formality. The 4 by 6 inch default suits a classic single-card invite, the 4.25 by 5.5 inch and 4.25 by 6 inch sit in the middle, and the 5 by 7 inch is the statement size that fills a hand and gives a foil monogram room. For stock you choose between 16pt Silk Laminated, a smooth laminated cover that keeps foil and color crisp, and 14pt Uncoated Cover, a softer natural sheet that reads more understated and takes a pen for handwritten notes. Both are premium weights picked to carry a foil press without cracking. The chart below lists all 4 sizes, both stocks, and the foil and ink options.
If your artwork is finished, skip the editor and download a press-ready blank. The blank invitation template is built at the real trim size with the bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design and your foil layer stay clear of the cut. Take the size that matches your order below, place your art, and upload.

Foil Wedding Invitations: Frequently Asked Questions
Why is the minimum order 500 invitations?
Foil stamping uses a die and a press pass on top of the printing, so the setup only makes sense across a full run. A set of 500 starts at $421.91, about 84 cents a card, and the per card price keeps falling toward 27 cents as the count climbs to 25,000.
Which foil colors can I choose?
There are 7 foil colors, including gold, silver and copper. You also choose the foil side, so the metallic can sit on the front, the back, or both sides of the invitation. Most couples put it on the front for the names or a monogram.
What stocks are available for foil invitations?
Two: 16pt Silk Laminated, which gives a laminated surface where the foil reads bright against the sheen, and 14pt Uncoated Cover, which is softer and more natural so the metallic is the only shine on the card.
How should I set up my artwork for the foil layer?
Keep the foil elements as solid shapes with enough weight to hold the stamp, and supply them as a separate clearly marked layer from the full color artwork. Very fine hairlines and small text are the elements most likely to fill in, so thicken them before you upload.
Can I add Spot UV as well as foil?
Yes. Spot UV can be applied on the front, the back or both sides, alongside the foil. It gives a clear glossy shine rather than a metallic one, so pairing a spot UV pattern with a foil monogram gives two different kinds of light on the same card.
How long does a foil order take?
Standard turnaround is 7 business days, which reflects the extra stamping pass after printing. Add shipping on top and plan backwards from the date you want guests to receive the invitation, not the date of the wedding.
