Custom foil invitations?

Hi all! My friend, a graphic designer, made me awesome custom invites for me as her wedding gift to me (I offered to pay). We wanted some of the type done in gold foil. However, the only printer she knows quoted us around $600 above what I have seen for invites elsewhere with similar gold foil.

Does anyone have a suggestion of a printer who prints custom invites with foil? Maybe an online vendor?

Do a Google search for print shops in your area. You cal also ask Staples/OfficeMax out of curiosity

I think I saw on vista print and zazzle somewhere to add the foil to your invites. They've got customer service lines you could call and talk to them about it.
Explain that someone did the design, you just have a few items specifically you'd like foiled out.

Minted had a foil option for half that price. They also have entire suites.

Ask different printers for quotes, you might find something lower. My MOH is a graphic designer and also did my invites, using foil. I used Thomas Printers based out of Utah for my invites.

I'm glad I'm not alone in wanting a custom foil invite. What did you end up paying?

The price will depend on size, quantity, and printing methods. The front of my invites were 4.6x6.6 and only foil printing, for 55 pieces, at $345. The back was slightly bigger and used both foil and digital ink printing so that cost more (as my MOH explained, the paper has to go through the machine multiple times for the different printing methods hence the higher cost).

I have been shopping around for places to have my custom invitations printed. I found that Truly Engaging by MagnetStreet allows you to have custom foil. Many places don't seem to offer foil put on custom invitations. Hope this helps.

I use magnetstreet.com
they have gold foil and they ALWAYS have great deals. My Save the Dates were like $118 for 140 of them and they were magnets and beautiful.
Magnet street has everything you will need for the wedding invites - it's not just a magnet website. it's awesome!
I will be ordering my wedding invites, shower invites, place cards, rehearsal dinner invites, and thank you notes from them as well.
