Wedding Postcards

These flat cards do a lot of quiet work. They print full color on heavy stock, they skip the envelope, and the right paper turns a simple announcement into something that feels like the day itself. Want to see how wedding postcards sit next to the rest of the range? Browse every style on postcards printing, or stay here and build yours from the choices below.

The price rewards a bigger guest list. A set of 50 starts at $16.48, and the per-postcard cost keeps sliding as the count goes up, so a full mailing for a large wedding costs far less per card than a small test batch. Tap any tier below to see the live set total and exactly how much each step up saves before you commit.

What Are Wedding Postcards?

Wedding postcards are flat, full-color cards printed in 14 sizes, from a 2.5" x 2.5" square up to a 6" x 11", on any of 22 stocks. Couples reach for them across the whole timeline: save-the-dates, formal invitations, RSVP reply cards, direction and detail cards, and thank-you notes after the day. Because a postcard mails without an envelope, it is quicker to send and simpler to keep, which is why so many land on a fridge and stay there. If you want a smaller keepsake format instead, the Mini Cards cover that, and the wedding postcard sits right beside it as the version built to mail.

What Size Should a Wedding Postcard Be?

The right size comes down to how much you need to say. The compact 2.5" x 2.5" square works as a token save-the-date or a slip-in detail card. A 3" x 4" or 4" x 4" gives an invitation room for the date, venue and a line of instructions. Step up toward 6" x 11" when you want a jumbo announcement that fills the mailbox. There are 14 sizes in all, the default is 2.5" x 2.5", and every size, both finishes 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. If you want a foil-finished announcement, the Metallic Foil Postcards go that route, and the classic Standard Postcards cover the everyday sizes.

Here are a few easy ways to make a wedding postcard feel like the day.

Pick a stock that feels like the occasion

A heavier, textured stock gives a wedding announcement real weight in the hand. White or premium linen reads classic and formal, soft touch feels velvety, and the metallic pearl stocks in ice, champagne, silver and gold catch the light like foil without the foil price. The default 14pt Gloss Cover keeps a photo save-the-date crisp and affordable, while the 24pt ultra-thick and 26pt metallic options feel like a keepsake. A High-Gloss UV Coating makes an engagement photo snap.

Round the corners for a softer look

Wedding postcards can print with square corners or rounded ones, either a 3/8" or a 1/8" inch radius, a small touch that reads gentler and more formal on a save-the-date. You set it in the configurator right alongside the stock and finish, so the shape matches the mood of the announcement.

Design it without a designer

You do not need a design background to make a wedding postcard look sharp. Start from a professionally built layout in our postcard design templates, then change the colors, photo and wording in the online editor in minutes. One clean idea, your date, and you are ready to print.

Already have your artwork? Skip the editor and download a press-ready blank instead. Each blank wedding postcard template is built at the real trim size with the 1/8" bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so your design never crowds the cut. Grab the size that matches your order below, drop your art in, and upload.

How Much Do Wedding Postcards Cost?

Wedding postcards start at $16.48 per set of 50, and the per-postcard price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 100,000, so a cheaper card really comes down to how big a mailing you order. A set of 800 runs $73.60, and by 7,000 the price is $176.61, which is about two and a half cents per postcard. There are 40 quantity tiers in all. 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-postcard cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.

Can You Print a Name or Code on Each Postcard?

Yes. Turn on variable data and you can drop a unique guest name, a table number or a one-off RSVP code onto every single postcard in the run, so each one ships personalized instead of identical. That turns a stack of announcements into a set of individual invitations, each addressed to the guest who receives it. Pair it with full color on both sides and a linen or pearl stock, and a simple postcard starts doing the work of a full invitation suite.

How Do Wedding Postcards Compare to the Rest of the Range?

Wedding postcards are the value pick when you want a mailer that skips the envelope, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a foil finish, a smaller keepsake or the everyday standard, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines up wedding postcards against their closest siblings so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

How Fast Can You Get Wedding Postcards?

Wedding postcards print on a 3 business day standard turnaround, and when a date sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day or even 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.
