Basic Invite for Graduation Cards - Palm Springs Senior Portrait Photographer

Basic Invite with show stopping graduation cards

I absolutely love when I have finished a graduate session and my clients family includes me in the list of recipients for announcements! It is such a beautiful honor! I display them on my fridge with pride. 

This is why when Basic Invite reached out to me to try their service I was ALL IN! I found the process to be incredibly simple and easy to order a variety of sample announcements, invitations, and thank you cards! 

Basic invite has an almost unlimited gallery of colors. Costumers can design their cards with an over 180 color library to fit every occasion and style. This give the ability to make not only the announcements for graduation but also any corresponding invitations or thank you cards cohesive with graduation party festivities! This is very unique to Basic Invite and this feature sets them apart from other stationery companies online.

One feature I did not get to try; but, I think is ingenious is Basic Invites Address Capturing Service. How this works is you share a link on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram to request friends and family addresses. They are then stored on our Basic Invite account to be used late for recipient address at no extra cost! See what I mean simple and easy and so practical! This makes it that much smoother when not just getting out the announcements BUT thank you cards to show appreciation for gifts. I love it. 

Basic Invite has beautiful designs and a variety of paper options to choose from. Here are some graduation invitation ideas.

The first sample I chose was the OUR GRADUATE ANNOUNCEMENT ON LUXE VELVET PAPER. This is a beautiful design for one gorgeous portrait on the front and text on the back. It is minimal and timeless, and this invite on a fridge is a show stopper. The Luxe Velvet Paper is just that.. LUXURIOUS! It feels important in your hands and print quality is exceptional.

The second design I chose was the Classy Collage Graduation Invitation in Double Thick Matte Paper. This design gives the 4 frames to showcase your favorite images from your senior photoshoot. This is a clean cut design with short text at the bottom to include celebration details and RSVP contact information. The double thick matte paper is the cream of the crop, then in doubt go with the thicker paper!

Before I go onI want to mention something that is a game charger. Basic Invite treats their graduation costumers the same as their wedding clientele! They are one of the few websites that allows their costumers to order a printed sample of their actual graduation cards before you place the order.You can see the paper and print quality in real life to ensure that it is perfect. Book your senior session early so you have time to order samples and get them out to friends and family on time.

Third on the sample list is the Commencement Cap Graduation Invitation on Signature Matte paper. This is a front and back designed announcement. This horizontal card we made with a corresponding horizontal Commencement Cap Graduation Thank You Card! 

The last sample was the Arch Frame Graduation Announcement on Smooth Coated Paper. This modern design beautifully frames a single portrait and adds unique font styles. 

I love all the options and seamlessness Basic Invite bring to the table. There is a design for every style, high quality paper and print, and integrated address retrieve to ensure your guests don’t go un-noticed!
