Graduation Invitations & Announcements

Yes. As you create your graduation photo cards or invites, you can download a digital proof of your design – for free. This makes it easy to double-check your work or share your ideas with someone else as many times as you’d like.

We don’t offer custom samples at this time – but you can order a small batch of 10 graduation invitations to see your cards in person. This is a cost-effective way to see and feel whether the color, paper and size is exactly what you want. If it is, reordering your invites is quick and easy, and if you want to make any updates, you can edit your design in our online studio. Either way, your order – and satisfaction – is absolutely guaranteed.

We advise mailing your graduation invitations at least three to four weeks ahead of your event. If you’re inviting any friends or relatives from out of town, send the invites about six weeks in advance so that they have time to plan travel and accommodations.

As long as it doesn't include an invitation, send graduation announcements any time from two weeks before the ceremony to four weeks after.

To see our size options, scroll down to “Product Options” and click “Size.” There you’ll find our card dimensions, plus design specs and downloadable templates if you’d like to use your own card design.

Note: Some of our cards have unique dimensions that won’t fit other retailers’ envelopes. But don’t worry. After customizing your cards, we’ll show you a variety of envelope styles that you can add to your order, including our free white envelopes: all will fit your card no matter what you select. Or check out our colored envelopes and custom envelopes. You’ll find their sizes and corresponding card dimensions under the “Size” menu at the top of each page.
