Thank you Basic Invite for sponsoring this post. All opinions are 100% ours.
If you know me I love having parties and get-togethers! I love the planning, decorating, and creative thinking that goes into the party! Most of all I love the look on the face of the person that I am throwing the party for, usually my kids, but sometimes not! Many times one of the first steps early on in party planning is picking out the right invitation and using the right stationery company to do it. You can’t have a party without people, right, so let’s check out one of my favorite sites and 5 reasons why Basic Invite rocks for online invitations.

Unlimited Color Combinations
I want color! I love a full palette and look for companies who can offer me a whole lotta color when I need to make invitations. It might be your wedding or your graduation so when it comes to stationery, you want color too, believe me! Basic Invite has over 180 color options, including gold and silver foil, to make any invitation uniquely yours. I found that no one offers a wider array of instantly pre-viewable color customization options.. Once you select a design on their website, you can change the color of each element on the card to over 180 different color options so you can make sure the card is exactly how you want it down to the littlest detail. That is cool!

Custom Samples
Getting your hands on an actual sample is pretty important if your event is important, let’s say like your WEDDING! Find a company who offers this for sure! Basic Invite is one of the few websites that allows customers the ability to order a printed sample of their actual invitation so they can see exactly how it will print as well as the paper quality before they ever have to place their final order. Sample your entire wedding suite before you purchase, check out their new wood invitations with white letters or look at your children’s birthday invitations. You can also order their Truly Custom™ samples of any of the stationery products, like bridal showers, baby showers, birth announcements and more.

Top Shelf Quality
Whether you need high school graduation party invitations, senior announcement cards , or a graduation thank you card ; do not skimp on the quality. Many companies that make invitations use very thin and flimsy card stock or unattractive fonts. You want your invites to look good and feel good so check out Basic Invite as they have hand-picked over 100 different font styles that you can switch on any design. They only use high-quality card stock and their luxe 120lb matte comes standard, plus there’s a wide variety of additional options, from shimmer card stock to double-thick.

Extra Services
Make sure the company you choose offers lots of extras for you when it comes to your special invitations! Most invitation websites can offer you paper and envelopes so make sure you don’t get sucked into a company that is all fluff and no selection! Basic Invite has over 40 different colors envelopes that are all peel and seal! They also offer an address capturing service that allows customers to simply share a link on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any other form of social media to request their friends and family’s addresses which will be stored in the customer’s account and can then be selected during the design process. Basic Invite offers recipient address printing at no cost on all Christmas card orders as well. Speaking of Christmas, foil holiday cards are available in gold, silver, and rose gold. Customers can choose flat or raised foil on all of Basic Invite’s foil designs.
