Thanks for all the tips everyone! I am headed to Staples this weekend, after confirming it is open!

Staples is a great source with lots of options of colours and weights to choose what you like. They do print invitations at request to know how many you need. I had ordered from Craftysticks.com and they supplied 80 lb. paper stock for fans and created my own program to give out to family and friends at the ceremony.

Its always a good way to know what you make like though testing out different weights paper may cost less than others.

The friend who was designing our invitations was raving about PaperSource.com They have gorgeous options, and I think you can order just the paper or get everything printed by them.

Staples is great! You can upload and proof your design and submit your order online. You can then pick it up in store within a day or two or have it shipped to your home (they may only be doing the latter with covid but who knows). They have matte and glossy paper. If I recall 5x7s are less than $1 apiece. There’s also no minimum purchase so you can order a tester.

I've been looking online and there are A LOT of options and prices anywhere from $15 - $400 for seemingly the same product. It's very confusing. My local Michaels is unfortunately closed to in person shopping and I'm hesitant to buy anything off Amazon without being able to see it first. Many of the reviews I saw said that the paper was not actually the heaviness it was advertised as. I might connect with a printing shop in my area to see if they can help.

Michaels has wonderful card stock and in a variety of colors

Try staples or amazon! any paper place should have cardstock
