This is one of my wedding invitation designs and I just had to see how it looked in person so I ordered some samples. I'm VERY happy with how this looks in person. I purchased it on the semigloss cardstock but I usually recommend the pearl shimmer paper for wedding designs like this one as I love the subtle shimmer of the pearl finish and it also helps keep the dark red looking rich, too. The semigloss paper has a high gloss shine whereas the pearl shimmer has less glare and is my favorite paper type for this type/color of design. It's also a bit fancier for a wedding, too. The colors stayed nice and rich looking on the semi-gloss paper. The colors WILL look duller/darker than how they look online if you purchase a paper type without a shine to it.

The product exceeded my expectations and was of high quality. the paper was thick and was a perfect invitation for my wedding. the colors were just as expected and vibrant. I have no worries that those receiving the invitations will know how much work was put into the product.

We ordered this invitation first as just a sample because I loved the color combination. We ordered many other samples invitations (thanks to Zazzle Black). But ultimately ended up coming back to this (our first) because is simply was exactly what I was looking for. I actually ended up using the color pallet for our entire wedding! We had an outdoor ceremony and inside reception and these invitations were the perfect introduction for our guests to the type of event we were planning. Not too fancy but also not a casual evening wedding. The colors were vibrant and the paper was just the right amount of weight. We ordered the matching RSVP cards, the mauve envelopes with return address printed on the back, the belly bands to tie it all together, and the menus. Postage to send all this out was only .78 each. We highly recommend these invites and this seller was very responsive, our orders went out very timely. Thank you so much! We were so happy with all your paper products! I was extremely satisfied with the colors of our invitations. I couldn't have been happier with the print!
