I’m a Graphic Designer and have been asked to design some wedding invitations, which is great. But where can I go to get my designs printed? I’m looking for a variety of styles, ie. envelope style, greeting card style and postcard style.
The only places I have found are for wedding invitations with a design already on the cards. I would ideally like to send my design/s to be printed on the stationery. Please send any links, thanks!
Being a graphic designer, I am sure you know at least one good printer.
A good printer not only does posters and business promotional materials, but also invitations and greeting cards and will print to the edge of the paper. And they will be able to cut an irregular size if needed.
You say you want the design printed on “the stationery”. What stationery? Because if you already have blank pre-cut cards or stationery with a design already on it, you will have a difficult time finding a printer to use those cards. Professional printers print on giant sheets, then cut after the printing, not the other way around. And, they may or may not be able to work with the paper you provide.
You need to search for a printer that does professional printing in general — not just wedding stuff.
