If you’ve been following along for a while, you may remember a blog post I wrote about our wedding invitations. If you’re new, you can find that post here. We used Basic Invite for our save the dates and wedding invitations, and we truly had the best experience! No other company compared to their customer service, quick turnaround time, or extensive customization options. Even if you’re not planning a wedding, they offer a wide variety of card options to meet your needs including graduation announcements, birthday invitations, baby shower invitations, and holiday cards. It’s never too early to start planning those! Their holiday selection includes everything from photo Christmas cards to business holiday cards. I’m sharing more details below on why Basic Invite is the best choice for all of your custom card and invitation needs.

- Endless Color Customization Options: Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers an extensive variety of color options with instant previews online. Once you select a design, you can change the color of each element on the card. With over 180 colors to choose from, you can surely pick the exact shade you’re looking for. One thing I was super particular about during our wedding was the colors! Since the color ‘blush’ has different shade variations, I wanted to make sure every detail matched perfectly. With Basic Invite, I was able to choose the exact shade I was looking for!
- Envelope Customization: Not only are there tons of color choices during the design process, there are also over 40 different color options for envelopes. This really allows you to make your invitation or card stand out! We did the gray cotton for our wedding invitations, and even the texture was so luxe!
- Foil Customization: Many of Basic Invite’s cards and invitations have the option to take your print to the next level by adding foil customization! The foil is available in silver, gold, and rose gold. Customers can also choose flat or raised foil.
- Custom Samples: Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers to order a printed sample of their actual invitation before they place their final order. This allows you to see the paper type, paper quality, and custom colors to ensure everything is perfect. We ordered several samples of our save the dates and invitations, and it made the process so much easier.
- Address Capturing and Printing: Basic Invite offers an address capturing service that allows customers to share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other social media to request their friends and familyās addresses. The addresses are stored in your account and can be selected during the design process. This makes a time consuming task during wedding planning so much easier! Not only that, Basic Invite will also print the addresses on the envelopes for you at no extra cost. You can choose guest and return address, or return address only.
No matter what type of invitation or card you’re searching for, I highly recommend Basic Invite for a truly custom printing experience! The design process is super fun and easy. But if you have any questions, employees are ready to assist you via live chat. Plus, you can currently use code 15FF51 to save 15% off your order, making their products even more affordable!
