Amy,
Best Color Laser Printers for printing wedding invitations
With all due respect, none. Personally, I can't conceive of having a proper wedding invitation prepared this way -- it just strikes a bit too close to being an office copy, with nothing special about it.
My choices would be genuine engraved, high-quality thermography, or even carefully considered offset litho on the right choice of stock. You just don't get the choices of stock and colors, and the feel of an inviting invitation with xerographic reproduction.
That said, if there is a market for this in your area, a high-quality laser printer or inkjet, properly maintained, and using high-quality dyes/pigments/toner printing on the right stock should be able to print properly without any banding. But if it were up to me, I'd choose a good inkjet like an Epson R2400.
