Can I get envelopes with my graduation invitations?

Yes. Before adding your custom graduation invitations to your cart, you’ll have a chance to include envelopes. Please note that you’ll receive one envelope for each card. If you’d prefer to skip the envelopes altogether, you’ll be able to do that too.

Can I request a custom design for my graduation party invitations?

Yes. With our [Graphic Design Services](https://www.vistaprint.com/design/ "Graphic Design Services"), you can work with a professional designer to update one of our existing graduation invitation templates – make color changes, add design elements and more. And if you’re interested in creating a truly one-of-a-kind design for your event, we’re excited to help.

Can I see a proof before I order my invitations?

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.

Can I order a custom sample?

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.

How soon should I send out graduation invitations?

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.

When should I mail my graduation announcement cards?

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

I want to upload my own design. How do I make sure my design will fit on the final product?

We've got you covered. Scroll down to "Product Options" and click "Product Specs & Templates." There you'll find design specs and downloadable templates for each size option for your product. Using these guidelines will allow you to gauge how much you'll need to adjust the size of your design for it to fit on the product – and avoid white spaces or gaps.
