Custom Die Cut Wedding Invitations and Printing

Current trends favor pocket-style invitation suites, laser and die-cut decorative panels, foil-stamped accents in metallic and jewel tones, and multi-level sculptured embossing for tactile detail. Couples increasingly want a cohesive, hand-assembled presentation that includes the invitation, RSVP card and inserts in one elegant folder.

Die lines should be supplied as Adobe Illustrator EPS files. This format allows the steel rule die to be built accurately in-house, ensuring the pocket, decorative apertures and score lines all align correctly during the die-cutting pass.

Embossing raises a design into the paper using a copper or brass die to create a tactile, dimensional effect without ink or foil. Foil stamping applies a thin layer of colored or metallic foil to the paper surface for a reflective finish. Many invitation suites combine both techniques for added visual depth.

Yes. Custom die-cut pocket folders are engineered to hold the invitation, RSVP card, reply envelope and any insert cards together as a single suite, rather than as loose pieces, keeping everything organized for mailing and presentation.

Foil stamp dies and single-level embossing dies typically have a 2-3 day lead time. Multi-level or sculptured brass embossing dies require more complex tooling and are quoted per job based on design complexity.

As a trade finishing house, the die-cutting, embossing and foil stamping services apply to invitation sheets already printed by you or your commercial printer. Printed sheets are supplied for converting into finished pocket folders and invitation components.
