14 pt. Glossy Paper
The most common cardstock for modern photo invitations, 14 pt. Gloss offers rich color saturation and high durability. High-gloss UV coating protects the surface from scuffs. Note: Glossy paper is not writable, so avoid using it for RSVP response cards or thank-you notes that require handwritten messages.

For an elevated, modern aesthetic, 16 pt. and 18 pt. Premium Matte cardstocks feature a soft, non-glare finish. The writable surface makes them the premier choice for RSVP cards and thank-you notes. Additionally, matte cardstock supports luxury specialty upgrades like gold foil, silver foil, rose gold foil, and 3D raised UV spot gloss.
13 pt. Woven Linen Paper
Linen invitations showcase a subtle cross-hatched texture that adds tactile elegance without bulk. Ideal for classic monograms, calligraphy, and minimalist typography-focused wedding invitation suites.
