Free Wedding Invitation Templates

Our exclusive free wedding invitation templates and premium blank wedding invitations supplies were designed for the non-crafter to easily make unique wedding invitations with professional results.

The wedding invitation wording for our layered wedding invitations is printed or copied onto overlay sheets, we offer translucent vellum or opaque white. Using our templates, each standard 8.5"x11" sheet will provide four 4.25"x5.5" overlays after cutting, the sheets are not perforated for a professional clean edge (small pre-cut overlays would be very difficult to setup, feed and print correctly. Order one overlay per invitation, we will send the correct number of sheets you need, for example if you order 25 overlays, we will send 7 sheets. We recommend ordering a sample to test in your printer and for better durability, purchasing water resistant ink jet ink or using a laser printer or copier. After you have finished printing you will need a paper trimmer or paper cutter to cut the sheet. Download our templates below, available in popular word processing formats:

Cut Overlay with Paper Cutter... After you have finished printing, you will need a paper trimmer or paper cutter to cut the overlay in half vertically and horizontally. If you are using a cutter, cut the paper 5.5" from the edge of the longer side, then again at 4.25" from the edge (longer side up).
