Product Details
Last month, an event planner told us she was tired of invitations that ended up in the recycling bin before the RSVP date. Sound familiar? You spend months planning the perfect gala or wedding, but if the invite feels cheap, the perceived value of the event drops instantly.
At Aorai Pack, we’ve noticed that tactile details matter. Roughly 70% of our B2B clients tell us their guests judge the event's quality before they even read the first line. That’s why our custom cards and invitations focus heavily on paper weight, texture, and luxury finishing.
Key Features
Heavyweight Paper Stocks: We don't do flimsy. Our standard starts at 300gsm, going up to 600gsm cotton rag for that unmistakable premium feel.
Advanced Finishing Techniques: From blind letterpress to edge painting and multi-layer foil stamping, we give your design a physical presence.
Complete Suite Matching: Need RSVP cards, envelope liners, and belly bands? We keep the color and texture perfectly consistent across the entire suite.
Exact Color Matching: We use Pantone spot colors for brand-critical hues, though honestly, standard CMYK is usually fine for photo-heavy designs.
Digital & Offset Flexibility: Short run? We'll use high-end digital. Need 10,000 pieces? Offset is your move for the best per-unit cost.
Eco-Conscious Defaults: Most of our standard papers are FSC-certified. It depends on the specific texture you want, but we can almost always source sustainable options.

1. Custom Specification Options
Look, there's no one-size-fits-all when it comes to event stationery. You might need a simple 250gsm matte card for a corporate seminar, or a 600gsm deckled-edge invitation for a luxury wedding. We offer over 40 paper textures.
Want to add a belly band? We can print those in matching or contrasting colors. Need wax seals? We can supply custom stamped seals, though that usually adds about 2-3 days to the production time. Here's what we've noticed: clients often overcomplicate the design. Sometimes, a simple blind deboss on a thick, uncoated paper looks a hundred times better than a busy, full-color layout.
2. Usage Scenes
Where do these actually shine?
✅ Weddings & Galas: Heavyweight cotton paper with foil stamping sets the tone before guests even arrive.
✅ Corporate Events: Clean, minimalist designs on smooth matte stock for product launches and annual dinners.
✅ Brand Launches: Exclusive VIP invites with edge painting to make the unboxing experience memorable.
✅ Holiday Greetings: Seasonal cards for high-value clients, keeping your brand top-of-mind.
3. Factory & Qualification Advantages
We’re not a middleman. Aorai Pack operates a 37-year-old manufacturing facility. We hold ISO 9001 and FSC certifications, which matters if you're sourcing for global brands with strict compliance rules.
Our in-house design and prepress team catches about 90% of file errors before they hit the press. That said, we still recommend ordering a physical proof for complex foil jobs. It costs a bit more, but it saves you from a 5,000-piece reprint mistake.
FAQs
1. Can I order just 100 invitations for a small private event?
Yes, but our standard MOQ is 500 pcs. For runs under 500, we use digital printing. The per-unit cost will be higher, but we can accommodate smaller batches if needed.
2. What’s the most popular paper weight for wedding invitations?
Without a doubt, 300gsm to 350gsm textured cotton or linen paper. It feels substantial in the hand without being too thick to fit in a standard envelope.
3. How long does it take to get a physical sample?
Roughly 5-7 working days for a blank dummy sample to check paper weight, and about 7-10 days for a fully printed proof with your actual artwork and foil.
4. Is letterpress printing worth the extra cost?
It depends. Letterpress creates a beautiful, tactile impression. But it's not ideal for highly detailed photographic images or tiny text. If you have bold typography or simple logos, absolutely. If you have complex graphics, stick to foil or embossing.
5. Do you provide design services if I don't have artwork?
We can help with basic layout adjustments and prepress file fixing. However, we don't offer full custom graphic design from scratch. You'll need to provide the final vector or high-res PDF artwork.
6. Can you match a specific Pantone color for my brand?
Yes. We mix Pantone spot colors in-house. Just provide the Pantone code in your file specs. Keep in mind that spot colors look slightly different on uncoated versus coated paper.
7. What if I need the invitations rushed?
We offer a rush production option that cuts the standard 10-15 day lead time down to 5-7 days. There’s a 20% rush fee, and it depends on our current press schedule, so check with us first.
8. How do you ensure the foil stamping doesn't flake off?
We use premium European foil films and calibrate our stamping machines daily. In our experience, flaking usually happens when clients use heavily textured paper with deep valleys. We'll advise you if your chosen paper isn't ideal for fine foil details.
9. Do the invitations come with envelopes?
Yes, envelopes are included in the base price. You can choose standard white or kraft, or upgrade to custom printed envelopes and inner liners for an extra touch of luxury.
10. What shipping methods do you use for international orders?
We typically use DHL or FedEx for orders under 100kg, which takes about 4-6 days. For larger pallet shipments, sea freight is more economical but takes 25-35 days.
