Frequently Asked Questions:
Ideally, you want to send out invitations 2-3 months before most events, such as birthdays. However, this isn’t always possible. If you can’t give that much notice, send them out as soon as all of the plans are confirmed. This will allow your guests as much time as possible to receive the invite and plan to accept the invitation.
However, the bigger and more important your event is, the more advanced notice you’ll want to give your guests. For example, wedding invitations can be sent even six months in advance.
Plain white envelopes are included with paper invitations and will come to fit the invitation size you select. If you don’t need the envelopes, you may choose to not receive them by selecting the dropdown below "Envelopes" and choosing "None." If you’d like to have a design on your envelopes, you can browse all of these available envelopes to find the design that complements your Checkmate Invitation.
Absolutely! You can make your own design from a completely blank template by following these steps:
- Step 1: Navigate to our "Personalized Custom Invitations & Announcement" page
- Step 2: Find the product you want to add a design to and click on it to get to a page that features that product
- Step 3: Select "Customize This Design"
- Step 4: You’ll then enter our design too, which you can use to add text, images, and more to completely customize your design
You’ll want to consider using high-definition printing, or HD printing, for important or larger images.
With our HD printing, we use CMYK ink to better generate a larger variety of images for better color accuracy, particularly when used for light pastel colors and skin tones. High-definition printing helps photos look livelier. This is because the colors will seem brighter and more realistic as lines will be crisper and details will be more clear, which is particularly important for larger images. Large images without HD printing may seem pixelated and low-quality.
We offer multiple size options for you to choose from. The 5"x7" is the most popular but all sizes have been selected based on popular invitation sizes customers buy. Be creative and pick a size that fits your event and style!
Our most popular paper is the Signature Matte Paper. Its sturdy 18 pt weight and natural feel make it the ideal choice for timeless, sophisticated events.
