THE DESIGN PROCESS
Congratulations, if you're here I can only assume you're about to embark on a super exciting day of your life, your wedding day!
​
Your wedding invitations are the first glimpse of your big day that your guests will receive, so you want them to be personal to you and your partner. My ultimate goal is to take away any stress of wedding planning and one of my favourite things to do is bring your ideas to life. I am not only working on your stationery but you can also ask me any questions you may have.
​
Here's what you can expect by working with me...
​
STEP ONE
Choose your stationery.
You can either choose one of my core collection in The Invitation Shop, or you can contact me regarding a custom design. Once you have decided which style of invitations will be wowing your guests you can either order them through my website (the full payment is due upfront this way), or you can contact me for a quotation (this method requires a 50% deposit to be paid upfront, with the remaining balance due once your design is finalised).
​
STEP TWO
Secure your dates
Paying your deposit will secure your date. We will then agree on when you'd like to send your invitations to your guests and a design period will be allocated. For 'on the day' stationary such as table plans, welcome signs, place cards etc we will need to begin working on your first drafts at least six weeks before your wedding date,
​
STEP THREE
The Design Stage
You will be emailed a form to complete with all of your wedding information, you will need to complete this and return it to me roughly four weeks before you'd like to send your invitations out (I will remind you). I will then design your first draft and email it to you as a PDF. You will receive my full attention to your order, and can make as many changes as you like to your stationery until you are 100% happy with it. (Orders can be completed in less than four weeks, but please discuss this with me before placing an order as it depends on my current diary.)
​
STEP FOUR
Printing and Assembling
Once you have confirmed you are happy with your designs I will moved to printing and assembling them. As I print everything in house and don't have to rely on waiting for printers this usually takes a couple of days - one week. I will make you aware of any delays.
All orders are printed onto 300GSM thick textured card.
​
STEP FIVE
The Finer Details
For all invitation orders you will receive two complimentary day invitations extra, one to give to your photographer to include in any 'details' photos with the other special touches, your rings, your flowers etc. The other is a keepsake for you.
​
STEP SIX
Hey Postie!
Once your order is complete I will carefully package it up, and post it via evri for UK orders, or will advise which courier for international orders. You will receive an emailing containing your tracking information so you can 'not so patiently' wait by the door for your beautiful stationery to arrive!
​
STEP SEVEN
Leave some love!
The biggest thank you you could give to me is to take a couple of minutes to leave a review. Feedback helps me see where my business can improve and helps future couples see that I am a trustworthy business. Thank you so much in advance if you do leave a review.
