This ensures 1.) we have availability for the full scope of your stationery and 2.) that we're designing for the big picture and can confidently present concepts that will extend effortlessly across the board. Based on the items in your order we will fast track certain timelines (like save the dates) to ensure items are printed in a timely manner.

Question 5

How many invitations should i order?

Answer

Multiply invitation items by your expected HOUSEHOLD count (usually about half of your expected headcount). From there, it's recommended you add an additional 5-10% so you can hold onto a few as keepsakes and have some spare on hand in the case of any additions to the guest list or returned mail.

Question 6

What's the design process like? What can I change during revisions and how many rounds of revisions are allowed?

Answer

SEMI-CUSTOM DESIGN: Once your stationery is booked, you will receive a content submission form to submit all details pertinent to your wedding day papers. We will then begin designing your stationery. You'll receive mock-ups of your suite and have the opportunity to refine your color palette and ensure your text is exactly how you wish. We want to make everything perfect, and therefore allow unlimted revisions. However, keep in mind timelines are scheduled with about 2-3 revision rounds in mind. Additional rounds may impact your printing and delivery dates. CUSTOM DESIGN: Once your stationery is booked, we'll reach out to schedule a 20-minute phone call. The purpose of this call is to revisit your initial inquiry responses and cover any dreams, ideas, questions, must-haves or must-not-haves specific to your suite papers. This call can be scheduled with you or your wedding planner. At the conclusion of this call, you will receive a content submission form to submit all text details pertinent to your wedding day papers. Once your kick-off date rolls around, we'll jump into defining the look and feel of your invitation suite. You'll receive a PDF containing style exploration and rough sketches outlining how we could translate this to your wedding papers. You will provide feedback and make selections to move forward with into the next phase of design. Initial design concepts will define layout, color and type treatment for each component of your wedding day papers and how they will all work together as a set. We want to make everything perfect and therefore allow unlimited revision rounds. However, keep in mind that timelines are scheduled with about 2-3 revision rounds in mind. Additional revisions may affect your production and/or delivery timeline.
