Do you have a Baronial cream or off white smooth envelope to fit an A-10 size invitation? Would you have an unlinned inner and outer envelope this size, I need 500 of them. If not, what size is the largest that would fit this request? Thank you for your prompt reply.
Dina Goldstein
Hi Dina,
Unfortunately, there is no true double envelope set for an A10 size invitation. We carry an Ecru Cream A10 – 6 x 9 1/2 Envelope but it has a straight flap, not a pointed flap.
my card is 5 3/8 x 7 1/4. do you have a nice ivory envelope. Need 50.
Hi Geraldine,
Thank you for your interest in our envelopes. As the video shows, an envelope to accommodate your card should be 1/8 to 1/4 of an inch larger. The perfect envelope size for your card would be about 5 1/2 x 7 1/2, but we are unaware of an envelope in this size. The closest size that we offer is our A8 – 5 ½ x 8 ⅛ Envelope Ecru. This envelope is a bit wider than ideal so if you’re interested in trying it, we encourage you to first order a sample. It is an Ecru Cream color, perhaps a bit more creamy and less yellow than ivory. This envelope size is also available in a linen finish: A8 – 5 ½ x 8 ⅛ Envelope Beckett Cambric Linen Colonial White.
Hello, I am looking for a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 ivory envelope with a pointed flap. It is for my wedding invitations that came with a flat flap and will not look as nice with my wax stamp as a pointed one would. Thank you
Hi DJ. Thank you for checking with us for wedding quality envelopes. Unfortunately, we do not carry any 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 envelopes. But a very popular envelope size is 5 3/4 x 8 3/4. We offer a wide range of 5 3/4 x 8 3/4 (A9) size envelopes with a straight flap, but unfortunately none with a pointed flap. You may be interested in our Old World European Flap Envelopes that also measure 5 3/4 x 8 3/4.
Can a A7 – 5 1/4 x 7 1/4 Envelope Ecru fit inside a A9 – 5 3/4 x 8 3/4 Envelope Carnival Black
Hi TaNeshia,
Yes, an A7 envelope will fit inside an A9 envelope. But keep in mind this is not a true inner/outer wedding envelope set. Feel free to get in touch if you have any specific questions about this. We’ll be happy to help.
If I am ordering the 5 1/8 x 7 landscape pocket fold, Ebenum, will it fit in the 5 1/4 x 7 1/4 envelopes or should I go one size bigger, 5 7/16 x 7 7/8, to accomodate the thickness of all of the inserts (RSVP, hotel information, map/directions)?
Hi Sheila,
Yes, a 5 1/4 x 7 1/4 (A7) Mailing Envelope is the correct size to accommodate our A7 Landscape Pocket Folds – 5 1/8 x 7. You should not need to go with a larger size. Please see our Pocket Fold sizing chart for the complete picture.
For peace of mind, you may want to order an A7 Pocket Fold, A7 Mailing Envelope, and possibly cards. Load the Pocket Fold as you envision and place it into the envelope. You can bring the finished invitation ensemble into your local Post Office to have it weighed to determine the postage.
My daughter’s wedding invitation is 5.5 x 7.75. She would like to put a backing sheet on it to make it a little heavier. What would you suggest the size of the cardstock be so we can buy an envelope to fit?
Hi Judy,
The answer to your question is dependent on the envelope you are using; but assuming you have not already purchased your envelopes, please take the following suggestions into consideration.
The next pre-cut card size up that we offer is an A9, which measures 5 1/2 x 8 1/2. If you used a 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 (A9) card as a backing card beneath your 5 1/2 x 7 3/4 top layer, you would have just a slight border at the top and bottom of the invitation card but no border on the sides, which would be an interesting look. Keep in mind that one advantage to using this size is that we offer lots of 5 3/4 x 8 3/4 (A9) envelopes to accommodate it.
If you would prefer a border all around your top layer, you might consider using a custom cut card that measures 5 7/8 x 8 1/8. This would give you a small, but uniform border all around, and would allow you to fit the card into a 6 x 8 1/4 inch baronial envelope. We offer these envelopes in white and ecru. If you are interested in custom cutting, please give us a call for additional information.
Please let us know if you have any additional questions for us.
