Invitation Order Process

INVITATION ORDER PROCESS

1. Consultation

It’s never too early to get started! First, we start with a complimentary 1 hour consultation and get all the details about your order.

 

Consultations are done by phone, in person, video chat or e-mail depending on your preference.

 

We will be discussing your personal style, the invitation suite and type, what you want and don’t want, your must-have embellishments and elements and basically every tiny detail so we can bring your vision to life. Listening to your ideas make us feel like a kid in a candy store.

 

Before your consultation we request that you send us an e-mail of at least three designs/links to photos that you like and your Pinterest board (if you have one) so we can provide you with the best samples to match your style.

 

During the consultation we will provide an invitation album with a glimpse of what we have to offer (over 100 samples), Color Swatches, Samples based on your style as well as Top Selling Invitations, Different Printing Methods, Embellishments, Ribbon Colors, Envelope Liners, Fonts, Templates, Invitation add-ons and much more. The possibilities are endless.

Once you choose a final design from the samples provided you can only make up to 3 edits/changes to your proof for free.
