Ok...so you have decided to use a printable template to create and make your own wedding invitations. Many brides, dont have the knowledge or experiance in making wedding stationery packages, and at first the thought of making invites can be daunting. So to help you on our way, here is a list of questions and answers that will hopefully eliminate those worries.
Q) Why print wedding stationery at home?
A) Flexibilty, self satisifaction, and you will save ££££'s.
Q) Is it not better to pay for a professional printer?
A) You will save a huge amount of money. Paying for a professional printer will cost quite alot.
Q) Will my Invitations look professional if they are printed on my home pc printer?
A) Yes, all our design templates are made by professional designers, using various design programs such as vector and adobe illustrator. Naturally the print quality does depend on the quality of your home pc printer.
Q) Do I have to use a particular weight of card and paper.
A) This is solely down to your personal choice, but we do recommend that you use a good weight of paper and card. Card should be 250gsm-300gsm in weight, and paper should be 100-130gsm in weight. Anything less than this, and your wedding invitations will look flimsy and unprofessional. So the weight of the paper and card will give your invitations that quality look and feel.
Q) Will these weights go through my printer ok?
A) Most home pc printers, can take upto 300gsm in weight quite easily, but we still recommend you try it in your printer first, before heading out and buying all your card in bulk.
Q) Can I use pearlised paper and cards through my printer?
A) Yes, most printers print beautifully on all types of card and paper. Depending whether you have an inkjet, or laser printer, the quality will vary. We find pearlised paper and card print differently, the print quality looks clean cut, and a strong colour print on our laser printer, but the same card printed on an inkjet loses the colour a little, as the 'wet' ink is soaked up a little on the pearl card. In fact pearl card printed on an injet printer, makes the ink look pearlised too. So it is just a matter of preference.
Q) Can I use textured paper and cards through my printer?
A) Yes, again, most printers print beautifully on all types of card and paper. Depending whether you have an inkjet, or laser printer, the quality will vary. Most available textured card and paper, prints beautifully on types of home pc printers. Just remember to purchase a good weight.
