Process


If you are ordering wedding invitations, please follow the below process. We encourage our clients to call us or e-mail us if they have important details to discuss or questions about any part of their invitation order. For bespoke designs, we will not move forward with an order until we speak with you personally.

If you are ordering announcements or holiday cards, please choose your selections from the product page, or contact us for more details. 


STEP 1: REQUEST A SAMPLE (optional).

We encourage you to request letterpress samples before placing an order for a full invitation suite. This allows you to see and feel the beauty and quality of our stationery.

Sample packets are currently complimentary; however, please note that due to current demand, we are not able to take on every project and will not be able to accommodate your order if you are within 14 weeks (3.5 months) of your wedding date (see below).

Sample packets include a full letterpress invitation suite (up to three designs of your choice), sample ink swatches, customization booklet, and pricing information guide.


STEP 2: SCHEDULE A CONSULTATION (optional).

I love to chat with my prospective clients to answer any questions you may have or gather enough information to prepare a custom price quote. Please contact me via phone or e-mail to discuss your stationery needs or ask questions about your order.

Please make note of the ideal timeline for your wedding invitation order. Please note that we reserve the right to decline your order if you cannot approve a final proof 14 weeks (approximately 3.5 months) prior to your wedding date.

 


STEP 3: PLACE A DEPOSIT.

If you know what you would like to order, you can place a $200 deposit here, which is required for us to begin the design process. This deposit notifies us to add you to our design queue and to start working on a proof of your design. Once a deposit is placed, we will contact you via e-mail or phone to confirm receipt of payment.


STEP 4: SUBMIT CUSTOMIZATIONS.

You can fill out the customization form which collects your wedding invitation suite details, such as paper selection, wording and colors. Fill out as much as you can, or upload a document using the Browse button provided. 


STEP 5: PDF PROOF AND REVISIONS

After we receive your customization information, we will contact you via e-mail or phone to collect any missing information and clarify any questions you may have. Within 5-7 business days after submitting your customizations, we will provide you with a full color PDF proof of your design, which includes your order details, estimated timeline for shipping, and each piece in your stationery suite.

You may request revisions to the initial proof to update wording, request additional stationery pieces, or change your order details, such as quantity or ink colors. We typically provide at least two rounds of design proofs. We will work with you until you love your stationery suite!


STEP 6: PAY FINAL BALANCE.

After we have agreed upon a final design, you will be asked to submit a final payment on our website (a link will be provided to you.) This must be done before we will move your order into the print production queue. You will also be asked to input your name and initials, confirming that you agree and have verified all of the important details about your invitation suite, including quantity, cost, shipping timeframe and design information.


STEP 7: PRINTING

Once your payment is complete, we will move your order into our print production queue. Once your order is placed in our print process, you will not be able to make edits to your design.

We estimate that printing and shipment will take 6 weeks from the date of final approval depending on current demand.
