Paper Weight?

I used 80 lb! It was pretty sturdy but still flexible

I am using 110lb cardstock. For the invitations and Guest information sheets I plan to double up (I want it nice and sturdy). Easiest way to do this is to print so you can fold, glue, then cut. Even with a A1 envelope + A7 envelope + 5x7 invite + 4x6 guest card + (A1 size) RSVP size, and some rhinestones, I am under 1oz. I am using Neenah Exact Index 110lb 8.5x11" from Amazon. 250 sheets for $16. I'm finding I'm using it for other things around the house too....

Thanks...have either of you printed anything front and back on those weights, and how was the transparency? That's what I'm mostly concerned with for the programs.

I used it for programs! I used black on white cardstock and it looked fine!

For invites I would go with the 110 lb cardstock though but 80 was nice for programs so it wasn't heavy for people to hold but still sturdy.

Here is a picture.

ETA: Names blurred out that space isn't actually blank.

The printing on the 110lb card stock did not bleed through.

Ok, thanks...I'm guessing the 95lb that I found on Amazon will work then and I shouldn't be able to see through to the other side.

Thanks @Lmac...I'll be having them printed at Office Max. So, am I safe with the transparency issue I described above if I go with a 95lb paper?

I'm wanting to use a shimmer paper. The one I tested it on at home was only 65lb and didn't so much bleed through, it's just that you could see through it to the other side quite a bit when it was held up to the light....and my ceremony is during the day in a chapel flooded with natural light, so I want to be sure I print on good enough paper to prevent that. Thanks for the tips
