Velvet Bridal Shower Invites

What Are Velvet Bridal Shower Invites

Velvet bridal shower invites are invitation cards printed full color on 16 point stock and sealed with a soft-touch velvet lamination, in 8 sizes from a 4.25" x 5.5" card up to a folded 5" x 7". For a card that opens like a booklet, see our folded bridal shower invites. Hosts order these when a flat, glossy card would feel ordinary: the matte, suede-like surface signals a dressed-up event before the details are read. You set the size, choose one-sided or two-sided printing, and add matching envelopes if you want to mail the set as one piece. If you are printing for the wedding rather than the shower, the Velvet Wedding Invitations run the same finish, and the broader Velvet Invitations cover every other occasion. When the next party is for a baby, the baby shower invitations are the card to order.

What Size Should Your Invite Be

Pick the size by how much you need to say. The 4.25" x 5.5" default is the classic small invitation, easy to mail and quick to read. A 5" x 7" gives a fuller layout more space, while the 6" x 6" square stands out on a fridge or a mantel. For a folded card, the 10" x 7" flat sheet scores down the middle and folds to a 5" x 7", giving you four printable panels for the details, a map, or a registry note. And if none of the presets is exactly right, set a custom size up to 12" x 9". The specs panel below lists all 8 sizes and both print options.

What Makes the Velvet Finish Special

Every invite prints on 16 point card wrapped in a soft-touch velvet lamination that reads like suede under your fingers. The finish is matte, rich, and slightly grippy, the opposite of a shiny gloss card, and deep colors or crisp white type both look striking against it. For ink, print full color on the front with a blank back when the reverse stays empty, or full color on both sides when you want a monogram, a map, or registry details on the back. Add matching White Wove A2 envelopes to mail the set as one piece, or skip them if you already have your own. When the whole event leans into that soft-touch look, the Velvet Thank You Cards match the invite so the follow-up feels like part of the same set.

How Much Do Velvet Bridal Shower Invites Cost

Velvet bridal shower invites start at $251.36 per set of 500, and the per-invite price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 10,000, so the run size sets the price per invite. A set of 500 is about 50 cents each, a 5,000 run drops to roughly 20 cents, and the top tier of 10,000 lands near 19 cents. Count one invite per guest household, add a few for the keepsake box, and drag the slider below to see the set total and the per-invite cost at that number.

If your artwork is ready, skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. Each blank velvet bridal shower invite template is built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design stays clear of the cut and the fold. Pick the size that matches your order below, place your art, and upload.

How Do Velvet Invites Compare to the Rest of the Velvet Range

Velvet bridal shower invites give the shower a card with real weight and texture. If you are weighing the wedding invite, a broader occasion card or a matching thank-you, the chart below lines up the closest velvet siblings with the starting price of each.

How Fast Can You Get Velvet Bridal Shower Invites

Velvet invites print on a 7 business day standard turnaround, and when the date sneaks up you can move that to a 4 business day rush. The rush buys back time for a set percentage on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. The clock starts once your proof is approved, so approving quickly keeps the timeline short. And 99.8% of 4OVER4 orders land on time, with 82% shipping early, so the shower date is not a gamble. Compare both turnaround options below and see exactly what the rush adds before you pick.
