We’re happy to say that there’s absolutely no charge to using the Maker tool (or any Zazzle Create page, for that matter). Work at your own pace – and without worrying about a fee – on your custom invitations, and plan a budget-friendly celebration with free-to-download wedding invitations.

The only requirement for using the Maker tool is that you have a Zazzle account, but again, this can be set up at no additional cost, and will allow you to share and save designs once you’re logged in. Read our "Registering a Zazzle Account” article to get started!

What features are available in Zazzle’s Invitation Maker?

If you’ve ever created a design on Zazzle before – prior to placing an order, for example – then you’ll be familiar with some of the most commonly used features in our free Invitation Maker. You can upload photos, add filters and backgrounds, input personalized text and manipulate the layout and orientation of your design with ease.

However, since this is the Invitation Maker, we’ve also included a library of graphics and templates for you to use: this means that you’ll have a structure to work from when creating your design, as well as plenty of inspiration! Remember, too, that this can even become a ‘team project’: there’s a ‘Collaborate’ button which will allow you to invite other creative thinkers.

Once your design is complete, it couldn’t be simpler to transfer the design to other ‘real-life’ products, which you can order as normal; you can then proceed to our Business Card Maker, and start all over again!
