Give the Invitation a Texture Guests Can Feel
Before a guest reads a single word, their thumb finds the raised names on the card, that quiet catch of texture that tells them this wedding matters. An embossed wedding invitation is the one people keep. A metal die presses your names, monogram, or border into the stock so the design lifts off the card with a clean, sculpted edge, and a set of 100 starts at $220.20, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 5 reviews. It sets the tone for the day, and 4OVER4 has been pressing that texture into paper from New York since 1999.
These invitations do the work that flat printing cannot. The raised effect catches both light and touch, so the card reads as a keepsake instead of a mailer.

What Are Embossed Wedding Invitations?
Embossed wedding invitations are premium invitation cards printed full color on 16pt laminated stock, with real raised lettering or artwork pressed into the paper. People reach for them when a flat card would feel too plain for the occasion: the raised names and monogram give the invitation weight and texture that a printed sheet cannot match. If you want a simpler, lower-cost wedding card instead, the Flat Wedding Invitations cover that, and the embossed version sits right beside it as the piece that stands up off the page.
What Size Should an Embossed Wedding Invitation Be?
The right size comes down to how much you need to say. The 4" x 6" is the classic invitation card, easy to mail and easy to display. Step up to 5" x 7", the most common wedding size, when you want more room for names, date, and venue. Go to 6" x 9" or 8.5" x 11" for a formal, full-detail suite, or the large 11" x 17" for a folded or statement piece. All 5 sizes and the full stock list are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. Need something in between? Set a custom size up to 11" x 17" and the price follows the size you pick.
What Paper Stock Are They Printed On?
The stock carries the embossing, so it needs weight, and all 3 options are a substantial 16pt with lamination included. Silk lamination gives a smooth, low-sheen finish that reads elegant under the raised effect. Gloss lamination adds shine that makes full-color art pop. Velvet lamination has a soft, suede-like touch that pairs beautifully with embossing, since the texture invites a second touch. You set ink coverage to 4/0 for a printed front with a blank back, or 4/4 to print full color on both sides.
What Raised and Finishing Options Can You Add?
This is where an embossed invitation earns its place. Layer foil stamping in gold or metallic over the raised design so it both rises and shines. Add spot UV for a glossy accent against a matte laminate. Die cutting shapes the card into a basic or complex outline, and rounded corners soften the edges at a 1/8" or 1/4" radius. Edge painting runs color along the card's thickness for a finished border, and scoring or perfing prep it to fold or tear. Embossing, foil, and spot UV each apply to the front, the back, or both sides. For an even louder metallic look, the Foil Wedding Invitations lead with foil, and the Velvet Wedding Invitations pair the same soft-touch feel with full-color print.
How Much Do Embossed Wedding Invitations Cost?
Embossed wedding invitations start at $220.20 per 100, and the per-card price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 5,000, so the real cost comes down to how big a run you order. A run of 1,000 works out near $0.31 a card, and 5,000 lands around $0.15. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-card cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.
Wally raises the invitation off the page
Real embossing from $220.20 for 100, texture guests feel before they read.

Embossed wedding invitations print on 16pt laminated stock with real raised embossing you can run a finger across, from $220.20 for 100 and about $0.15 a card at 5,000. Choose a size up to 11 by 17 inch, add foil stamping, spot UV, or edge painting, and Wally proofs it free before it prints.
Can You Personalize Each Invitation?
Yes. Turn on variable data and you can drop a unique guest name onto every card in the run, so each invitation ships personalized instead of identical. That turns a single design into a full addressed set without reprinting, and it pairs cleanly with the raised embossing and full-color print. It is the easiest way to make a formal invitation feel made for one household while the artwork stays consistent across the whole order.
How Do They Compare to Other Wedding Invitations?
Embossed invitations are the tactile pick when you want texture guests can feel, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a foil finish, a soft velvet touch, or a simpler flat card, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up embossed wedding invitations against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.
How Are They Proofed and How Long Do They Take?
Because embossing uses a physical die, getting the file right matters, so you can request a Free Online Proof and approve the layout before anything prints. If your artwork is already press-ready, choose Straight To Production and skip the wait. Standard production for these invitations runs 10 business days once your proof is approved, and every order is backed by 4OVER4's Gold Standard guarantees.
