Laser Printing on Colored Cardstock? Where can i go?

Hey ladies,

I'm about to rip my hair out over here. I really want to foil my wedding invitations, which I've already designed, but I need to print them using a laser printer (toner) so that my toner reactive foil sticks to the lettering. I'll be using a laminator.

My only problem is, I don't have a laser printer at home. I know OfficeMax, Staples etc do, but they won't let me bring in my own paper and I'm not seeing any dark green cardstock options online.

Am I out of luck? Am I going to have to buy my own laser printer? Or, is there another print shop you guys know of who offers laser printing on colored cardstock?

Google has been ZERO help, seriously!

Thanks (:

Contact an independent printer. Otherwise ask Staples/OfficeDepot what their instore options are.

Hi Tori! Where are you located? I'd also try to find a local stationer who can help!
Search for local invitations, business cards, printing, signs, etc., and you should be able to find a local place that can help you out - or at minimum they should be able to tell you which type of cardstock they can print on and point you in the right direction!
There are also toner pens that work well (like the Heidi Swapp Minc Toner Pen), but you'd have to hand-letter everything.
