I wanted something simple to invite my family to a Christmas party. Loved the "Jingle & Mingle" theme and was able to put a picture on the back showing one of my Christmas trees from last year and the fireplace. So festive and inviting!
This invitation is absolutely stunning. I plan to use it for our annual Christmas dinner, which this year will be "Cowboy Christmas!" It is perfect! Every year, my husband and I host a Christmas dinner at our favorite restaurant for ten of our friends. Each year features a different theme. We have done Ugly Sweater, Flannel and Frost, and Winter White. This invitation is right-on for Cowboy Christmas. The horse ornaments are so different. The black background really highlights the ornaments. I ordered a sample invitation and my husband loved it as well. Now I cannot wait until December!
Can't say enough great things about these Nutcracker Christmas party invitations! The paper quality is great. The design itself is simple yet super elegant, fun, festive and shiny. The way the foil accents shimmers and shines really adds to the cheerful holiday party vibe. We got tons of compliments on these party invites. Would most definitely order from this designer (Pineapple Paperie) again. Flawless!

Aim to order 6 weeks before the date of your party, or 8 weeks if you require a sample first. This gives ample time for production and shipping, 2 to 3 days to address and stamp, 2 to 3 days to mail to the guests, and 4 weeks for guest notice. Manufacturing of invitations takes between 2 and 4 days, depending on the type of card. Short on time? We have five shipping options to choose from: Standard, Premium, Express, Zip, and Zip PLUS. Zip will cut the manufacturing timeframe to just 1 day, with delivery in 1 to 2 business days, while Zip PLUS will move your order to the front of the manufacturing queue and deliver the next day. Postal deadlines also vary each year, so check with USPS for their Christmas cut-off dates. Alternatively, order a digital invitation for instant access, which you can read more about below.
Yes, you will have the option to add envelopes with all invitation types except for vellum. Envelopes for vellum invitations can be purchased separately, and postcards are usually posted without an envelope. Envelopes for folded and all-in-one invitations carry an extra charge, while flat, acrylic, magnetic, and tri-fold Christmas invitations offer free standard white envelopes. Free Guest Addressing is available for 5 x 7 inch cards, and your order must contain a similar number of cards to be eligible. If you're unsure, simply scroll through the product options on any page. Then, if Guest Addressing is available, there'll be a button that says 'Addressed Envelopes with FREE Guest Addressing.'
Zazzle has no minimum order requirement, and many customers order just one before buying a full batch. As Christmas is an immovable deadline, aim to order 8 weeks before the party date, allowing time to check the paper finish, color, and feel of the invitation. If you select Worry-Free Design Review and Delivery at checkout, we promise a 100% satisfaction guarantee on your order, which includes a professional review by one of our design tool experts. You can reorder at any time by clicking on 'My Orders' in your Zazzle account, selecting your unique Order ID, and updating the quantity.
The most popular paper type is Signature Matte for its natural feel and uncoated matte finish, which absorbs ink quickly and makes it the best all-rounder for Christmas invitations. It's FSC® Certified (sourced from responsibly managed forests) and has a weight of 324 GSM. GSM is a unit of measurement that means 'grams per square meter,' so higher GSM means thicker paper. You can view and compare each paper type on any product page by clicking 'Compare Papers.' Basic Semi-Gloss is the only paper that costs less, while Signature Double-Thick and the Premium paper types will add an extra charge per card. We also offer foil, acrylic, and letterpress finishes, searchable on the category page by clicking 'Add Filter +,' with 10 shapes and corner styles to choose from, including Snowflake, Tag, and Circle. Printing a photograph on your card? Select HD under Printing Process for a more vibrant and precise photograph.
Definitely. Any design can be turned into a digital invitation, which can be purchased alongside a printed invitation or as an alternative to print. Under 'Choose Your Format,' there'll be three options available: 'Printed Invitation,' 'Prints + Instant Download,' and 'Instant Download.' Choose 'Prints + Instant Download,' and the printed invitation and the digital invitation will be added to your cart as separate purchases. Once the checkout process has been completed, you'll receive an email and be able to instantly access your downloadable file. The printed invitation(s) will be shipped once manufacturing is complete.
Yes, in fact, we offer discounts all year round. Discounts will be displayed directly underneath the price on any invitation in red font, or you can view them on our coupons page. You can also avail of a discount on bulk orders, viewable by clicking the 'Qty:' button, which will be in blue font. For example, 50 flat Christmas invitations are eligible for a 30% discount, while 60 flat Christmas invitations will provide a higher discount at 50%. If your order qualifies for both seasonal and bulk discounts, only the higher discount will apply.
Both office and family parties require the standard details: the host's/company's name, date, time, location, and RSVP details. Extra details include the dress code, parking, and food information. Both require a call to action, such as "Come Celebrate," "Jingle and Mingle," or "You are invited to join us for..." For an office party, explicitly state whether partners are also welcome and whether it's on work time. Holiday invitations, as opposed to Christmas-specific invitations, may work better in a work environment, ensuring everyone feels included. For a family/friends party, state whether kids are also invited and provide the gift etiquette.
Absolutely. Many people choose to combine a Christmas party with another event as it's the time of year when the most people can be gathered together. Explicitly state both events up front, leading with whichever is the actual reason for the party, and follow up with the other milestone you want to mark. For example, if you're hosting a Christmas baby shower, you can say "Join us for our annual Christmas party, where we're also celebrating the mom-to-be and her little bundle of joy." If it's two events that would typically call for a gift, be clear on the gifting information so guests can come prepared.
