Set the Tone With an Invitation That Catches the Light
Every metallic invitation carries a metallic foil accent on the front of a 16pt Gloss Cover card, pressed as part of the print. For a wedding, a gala or a milestone birthday, the foil on the names or the date tells a guest this is an occasion. Sets of 500 start at $317.44 and hold a 4.8 out of 5 across 24 reviews.
One heavy stock keeps every card the same weight, the foil frames a monogram or a name, and full color fills the rest of the design.

Most weddings and parties need the first 500, $317.44. A company inviting every client to an opening, or a venue printing for a season of events, orders in the thousands, where each card costs a fraction of that. Tap any of the 8 tiers below for the set total and the saving at each step.
What Are Metallic Invitations
Metallic invitations are printed invitation cards that carry a metallic foil accent on the front, printed full color on a premium 16pt Gloss Cover stock, in 3 sizes from 4.25" x 5.5" up to a 6" x 6" square. Hosts order them when a plain card would undersell the event: weddings, engagement parties, galas, quinceaneras, anniversaries, and VIP business nights. Because the foil catches the light, the card reads as a keepsake rather than a formality. For an even more tactile finish, the Suede Invitations trade shine for a soft velvet feel, and the metallic sits beside them as the foiled version.
What Size Should a Metallic Invitation Be
Pick the size by the occasion. The default 4.25" x 5.5" card is compact and easy to mail, a natural fit for showers, parties, and save-the-dates. The 5" x 7" is the classic invitation format, the one most people picture for a wedding or a formal event, with room for a full layout around the foil accent. The 6" x 6" square is the statement piece, big and modern, ideal when the invitation is part of the decor. All 3 sizes, both ink options, the coatings, and the corner styles are grouped below the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. Need a shape outside those three? Order a custom size up to 6" x 7" and the price follows the dimensions you set.
What Paper, Ink and Finish Options Are There
The stock is a single, deliberate choice: 16pt Gloss Cover, heavy enough to feel substantial in the hand and smooth enough to carry the foil cleanly. That metallic foil accent prints on the front of every card. For ink, keep it to a full-color front with a blank back, or run full color on both sides when you have a map, a schedule, or a monogram for the reverse.
Then choose a finish. Leave it uncoated for a natural surface, add a High Gloss UV across the whole card for extra shine, or place a Spot UV on the front so only chosen areas gleam next to the foil. Square corners are standard, and you can round them to a 1/8" or 1/4" radius for a softer edge. Add matching White Wove envelopes and the set arrives ready to address. If you want the shimmer worked into the stock itself rather than as a front accent, the Ultra Thick Metallic Pearl Invitations carry a pearlescent finish through a much thicker card.
How Much Do Metallic Invitations Cost
Metallic invitations start at $317.44 per set of 500, about 63 cents a card with the foil accent included, and the per-card price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 25,000. A run of 2,500 is $646.94, 5,000 is $910.55, and 25,000 lands at $3,436.82, roughly 14 cents a card. Drag the slider below to set your count and see the set total and the per-card cost.

Why a set of foil-accented cards sets the tone for the whole event.
Metallic invitations start at $317.44 for 500 cards, each with a metallic foil accent on a premium 16pt gloss stock. Pick a size, print full color on one or both sides, add a UV coat or matching envelopes, and Wally sends a card that reads as an occasion. Order metallic invitations and set the tone before the door even opens.
What Do People Use Metallic Invitations For
Couples send them for weddings and engagement parties, where the foil accent frames a monogram or a date. Hosts choose them for galas, fundraisers, and anniversary dinners, where a heavy foiled card sets the dress code before anyone reads it. They work for milestone birthdays, quinceaneras, and holiday parties too, and businesses use them for launches, openings, and VIP nights. Print the reverse in full color and each card can hold the schedule, the dress code, or a QR link to RSVP. If the celebration is specifically a wedding and you want the foil to carry the whole design, the Foil Wedding Invitations are built around that.

Metallic Invitations: Frequently Asked Questions
Do metallic invitations come with envelopes?
Matching blank envelopes are offered as an option when you build the order, so the invitation and its envelope arrive together. Choose them in the Matching Blank Envelopes step before checkout. The envelopes are blank, so any addressing is handled on your end.
What sizes can I order?
Three sizes: 4.25 inches by 5.5 inches, 5 inches by 7 inches, and a 6 inch by 6 inch square. Custom sizing is available up to 6 inches by 7 inches if your design needs a specific proportion.
Is the metallic accent printed or is it actual foil?
Every card carries a metallic foil accent on the front, so the shine is part of the finished print rather than a sticker added later. It works best framing a monogram, a name, or a border, with full color filling the rest of the card. All cards print on 16pt Gloss Cover stock.
How many invitations do I have to order?
The run starts at 500 cards from $317.44, about 63 cents each. The per card cost slides toward roughly 14 cents as the count climbs to 25,000, which is what makes a foil accented mailing workable on a long guest list.
Can I print on the back of the invitation?
Yes. You can print full color on the front with a blank back, or full color on both sides if you want directions, a schedule, or an RSVP note on the reverse. Coating choices are No Coating, High Gloss UV, or Spot UV on the front, and rounded corners are available.
How far ahead should I order for a wedding or gala?
Standard production is 7 business days after your file is approved, and shipping time comes on top of that, so build in a cushion before your mailing date. Ordering early also leaves room to review the proof rather than rushing an approval.
