Stationery & Invitations

In Virginia Beach: Four (4) local stationers here, in Virginia Beach and Portsmouth — still a thin shelf for a metro this size, so read the one (1) labeled alternative beneath the listings as a commercial printer who can run a larger paper job when the boutique shops are booked. National online stationers are also a legitimate route for save-the-dates, day-of programs and menus, and the price gap between them and a bespoke shop is wide enough to matter on a tight budget; what the local shops offer that an online run does not is custom illustration, calligraphy, and paper stock you can actually feel before you commit. Send save-the-dates eight to ten months ahead, mail invitations six to eight weeks before the day, and weigh a finished suite at the post office before you buy postage — square, bulky and heavy invites cost more to mail than couples expect.

Bringing your own design to a commercial printer

These are commercial and trade printers, not wedding stationers. None of them designs an invitation suite, and none of them lists weddings as work they do — they are here because they will print a design you already own, usually well and usually for a fraction of a stationer's price. That makes them a real option if you have bought a template, hired a designer separately, or are printing menus, programs, table numbers and signage rather than the invitations themselves. Send a PDF and ask for a paper sample first: weight, finish and color vary far more between printers than price does.
