Description
Overview

Rigid Invitation Boxes

A card, a keepsake and a mailing piece, and invitation packaging has to be all three at once.

Boxed invitations arrive in the post and get displayed on a mantelpiece. Postal survivability and presentation quality have to coexist in one small object.

Every detail. Intentional.

Posted, then displayed

Two very different duties.

Flat and rigid

Bending ruins the card.

Wax seals and ribbon

Applied by hand, at volume.

Postal dimensions matter

Postage steps up at a limit.

Insert holds the card flat

No movement in transit.

Kept as a memento

Which raises the standard.

Measure Twice

Sizing & dieline.

We cut Rigid Invitation Boxes to a dieline built around your product instead of pulling a stock size off the shelf. Send us the length, width and height of the item (or the item itself) and we return a measured dieline, free, before you commit to anything.

How to measure
01
Measure the product

Length, width and height of the item itself, at its widest points. Measure the product, not the box you happen to use today.

02
Add clearance

Allow 2–4 mm on each axis for a snug fit, and more if you are adding foam, a pillow insert or tissue.

03
Give us the order

We quote as Length × Width × Height. Tell us whether you are working in millimetres or inches and we match it.

✦ Not sure of your size? Send us the product and we measure it and build the dieline.

What It Costs

Pricing & minimums.

We price Rigid Invitation Boxes per specification rather than from a fixed list, because the same build in two different finishes can land at very different numbers. Below is what actually moves the price, so you can shape the spec before you request a quote.

What moves the price
Quantity

The single biggest lever. Unit cost falls sharply as volume rises, because setup and tooling spread across more pieces.

Material and thickness

Board weight and stock choice change both the raw material cost and the shipping weight of the finished run.

Finishing

Foil, spot UV, embossing and soft-touch each add a pass on press. One or two lift the box; five compound the cost.

Print coverage

Full-bleed print inside and out costs more than a one-sided design on natural stock.

Inserts and hardware

Foam, moulded pulp, velvet pillows, magnets and ribbon are priced per piece on top of the box itself.

Timeline

Standard production is the base rate. Rush moves you up the production queue and carries a surcharge.

Frequently Asked Questions

Questions, answered.

Everything you need to know about Rigid Invitation Boxes.

The box is made from 2 mm rigid board wrapped in printed art paper or a specialty stock, with a telescoping lid that lifts off the base. The board doesn't flex, so the card inside arrives flat, and the shallow depth keeps the piece close to stationery proportions.

Recycled chipboard is available for the core if you want recycled fibre. The wrap is where the colour and texture come from.

Yes, a stepped insert seats each card on its own platform in the order the guest should read them. The invitation sits on top with the RSVP and details cards beneath, and the stack stays put while the box travels.

We size the platforms from your printed card dimensions, so send the final stationery sizes before we cut the insert.

Ribbon pulls and ribbon bands are built in, and wax seals go over the ribbon or directly on the lid. Magnetic flaps and slide-out drawers aren't offered on this box, so ribbon is the main closure detail.

Seals and ribbons are applied by hand, which adds time on larger runs. Tell us the count at quote stage and we'll plan it into the schedule.
