The New Year is in full swing with many of you planning parties, weddings and reunions for the spring. Having trouble finding the perfect invitations or paper for your own custom announcements? Head over to LCI Paper for a vast selection of stationery, envelopes and stamps to bring your invitations to life.

Now you can escape the boredom of premade cards & designs in your local paper store and dive in to the world of DIY wedding invitations, announcements and save the date notices. Once you pick a paper stock unlike any you have seen before you are just getting started; luckily for you LCI paper provides tips, tricks and videos to make you look like a pro.

So how does LCI Paper print money with an online storefront? Larry Chase explains,

Miva Merchant has allowed us to design and develop a highly customized website and e commerce store for our products. We have a complex 3,000 plus SKU offering of invitations and specialty papers many that are integrated and dependent on other products. By integrating MySQL we have been able to leverage the database and implement some very custom code including PHP and Ajax.”

At first glance you may not see 3,000+ products because a clean design and organized navigation puts each piece of paper, envelope and card stock in the perfect place. Of course, like all great sites, the road to success took some travel time.

LCI Paper has been using the Miva Merchant shopping cart for almost 10 years now, allowing their e-business to grow as ecommerce grew:

Over the years the Miva [Merchant] team continued to develop their product and we took advantage of what they had to offer. By converting to MySQL and working with top rate developers, we have been able to take our site far beyond our original expectations.” According to Mr. Chase.

Get your creative juices flowing when you browse the huge array of invitation wording to help you come up with the perfect phrasing for your event. Already know exactly what you want to say and have the colors of your wedding picked out? Check out the shop by color area to match your invitations to the event colors.

Enjoy flipping through pages of invitation designs, colors and textures (I know I did) as you decide on the perfect wedding invitations or other card stock.
