Give the Invitation a Cover Worth Opening
Behind the cover of a folded invitation, the real details wait on an inside spread, with a back panel to spare, so a wedding, a shower, or a milestone gets a proper reveal instead of a one-glance flat card. A set of 25 starts at $38.22, rated 4.8 out of 5 across 106 reviews. Whether you are mailing a formal wedding suite, a bridal shower announcement, or a milestone party invite, the fold gives the piece weight and a small sense of occasion.
These cards do more than a flat sheet for a reason. The fold hides the details until the guest opens the card, it gives you four printable panels instead of two, and it drops neatly into a matching envelope you can add to the same order.

The price rewards a bigger run. A set of 25 starts at $38.22, and the per-piece cost keeps sliding as the count goes up, so a full guest list for a wedding costs far less per card than a small first batch.

What Are Folded Invitations?
Folded invitations are scored cards printed full color and folded along a crease, offered in 3 sizes, from an 8.5" x 5.5" card that folds to 4.25" x 5.5" up to a 12" x 6" card that folds to a 6" x 6" square. People reach for them when a flat card would feel too plain: wedding suites, bridal and baby showers, milestone birthdays, anniversaries, and formal announcements. Because the card opens, the cover can carry the artwork while the inside holds the date, time, and address, so the design and the details never fight for the same space. If you want a single flat card instead, the Invitation Cards cover that, and the folded version sits right beside it as the piece with a little more presence.
What Size Should a Folded Invitation Be?
The right size comes down to how formal the event is and how much you need to say. The 8.5" x 5.5" sheet folds to a compact 4.25" x 5.5" card, the everyday pick that drops into a standard envelope. The 10" x 7" sheet folds to a 5" x 7" card, the roomy classic most weddings and formal events reach for. The 12" x 6" sheet folds to a clean 6" x 6" square when you want the card to feel a little different on the table. All 3 sizes, both finishes, all 12 stocks, and the ink and envelope choices are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. If you are printing a wedding specifically, the Folded Wedding Invitations are tuned for that, and the Folded Bridal Shower Invites handle the shower.
Here are a few easy ways to make a folded invitation feel like an occasion.
Pick a stock that sets the tone
The stock is the first thing a guest feels, so let it do some talking. The default 14pt gloss cover keeps the color bright and the price low. The white and cream linen stocks add a woven texture that reads formal and expensive, and the four metallic pearl finishes in ice, champagne, silver, and gold catch the light like foil without the foil price. Prefer a soft, writable surface for a handwritten name? The recycled uncoated covers, including a 100 percent post-consumer waste option, take pen ink cleanly. A High Gloss UV Coating on top makes a cover photo or monogram snap.
Add the matching envelope
A folded invitation is only half a mailing without an envelope. Add matching white wove A2 envelopes right on the order and the invitations and envelopes ship together as a set, ready to address the moment the box lands. If you need envelopes on their own or in another size, the Invitation Envelopes cover that separately.
Grab a press-ready blank
Already have your artwork? Skip guesswork and download a press-ready blank built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design never crowds the fold or the cut. Grab the size that matches your order below, drop your art onto the right panels, and upload.

How Much Do Folded Invitations Cost?
Folded invitations start at $38.22 per set of 25, and the per-piece price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 100,000, so a cheaper invitation really comes down to how big a run you order. A 100-piece set runs $93.58, our best-rated quantity, while 300 land at $146.30 and 1,000 come to $363.79. 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.
Do the Invitations Come Folded or Flat?
By default the card is scored along the fold line and ships flat, which keeps it crisp for hand-assembly and lets you insert any extras before folding. If you would rather it arrive ready to drop into the envelope, choose the option to fold it to the finished size, and it ships closed. Either way the score is done for you, so the fold lands clean and square instead of cracking the stock. Before anything prints you can go straight to production, request a free online proof, or order a next day hardcopy proof to check the color and paper in your own hands first.
How Do Folded Invitations Compare to the Rest of the Range?
Folded invitations are the pick when you want a card that opens, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a wedding-specific suite, a shower invite, or a single flat card, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up folded invitations against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

Words only go so far. Want to see how stock, color, and finish come together on a real folded card? The gallery below collects work our own customers printed in-house, across different sizes, stocks, and finishes, so you can borrow ideas and see how a choice actually reads once the card is open. Tap any print to see it larger.
How Fast Can You Get Folded Invitations?
Folded invitations print on a 5 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move to a faster rush tier, down to Same Day production. Each step buys back time for a set percentage on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same Day orders must be approved by noon EST to ship that day, and anything approved after that is treated as approved the next business day. Pick the speed from one dropdown and you are set.
See the Rest of Our Invitations
Folded invitations are one stop in a much larger lineup, and you can scan the full invitations printing range any time. If a wedding suite, a shower invite, or a flat card would serve the event better, the rest of the family is one tap away. Each option shows its own starting price and links straight to its product page, so finding the right fit takes seconds.
