Why & How to Decide Your Acrylic Wedding Invitation Thickness

For brides who have decided to have the trendiest acrylic cards for their wedding invitations, thickness is a big thing that you need to be careful about when picking your acrylic wedding stationery .n.

Most invitation shops both online and offline take 2mm the standard thickness for acrylic invitations, however, the material can vary as well depending on your preference. For instance, we have found that most of our brides have picked 1mm acrylic cards for a more affordable price. So think carefully and take the the follow 4 things into consideration.

1. The Cost of a Simple Printed Acrylic Wedding Invitation Card

There are basically 3 thicknesses for acrylic wedding invitations : 1mm/.04", 2mm/.08" and 3mm/.12". The price of acrylic wedding invitation ranges dramatically and the thicker the more expensive. We generally suggest guests to choose 1mm invitations as it is the easiest way to help you keep the budget under control.

Unit price for different thicknesses :
-1mm/.04" : $ 2.8/PC for an order of 100pcs
-2mm/.08" : $ 3.8/PC for an order of 100pcs
