THE PROCESS
Your invitation is the introduction to your big day. I offer an array of printing methods and materials such as digital printing, foil printing, letterpress and acrylic just to name a few. I am with you every step of the way to ensure you love your final product and your experience is seamless!
My Philosophy
Custom Order Process
Custom invitation orders should be placed 6-12 months BEFORE you need to mail them out to your guest. I can accommodate custom orders at the minimum 4 months before but it will highly depend on the size, scope and current availability.
Step One
Let’s Chat
Fill out the invitation questionnaire and I will respond in 2-3 business days with a general pricing guide and time slots to set up your consultation. Consultations are done by phone or video. After we chat for a bit, a revised quote will be created to fit your exact needs.
Schedule an AppointmentStep Two
Getting Started
Once you approve the quote, I will send you a contract to sign and a link to place your depost and $300 non-refundable design fee. This reserves your spot on my design calendar. Once, we receive both then we can move to the design phase.
Step Three
Design Phase
I will mock up 1-3 initial design options based on our consultation. You will receive an electronic mockup for you to review and approve. If you have additional revisions* just let me know and I will make those.
*Revisions are unlimited. That means, I can change anything you need until you love your design.
Step Four
Final Approval
As soon as your design is finalized digitally, I will need a signed document stating final approval. At this point the remaining balance must be paid. After I receive your approval and balance payment then we move to the production phase.
Step Five
Production Phase
Once in production at this time, invitation pieces are sent to print, assembly supplies are ordered (ribbons, wax seals, pockets, paper, envelopes, etc).
I will also be requesting a spreadsheet with your guest addresses to be printed on your envelopes.
Step Six
Order Ready
When all printed pieces and supplies are received, they are semi-assembled by me. The most you will have to do is stamp and close your envelopes. I will schedule a time for you to pick up your invitations or meet at an agreed location.
Semi-Custom Process
My semi-custom suites typically require an average of 5-6 weeks for completion, though this timeframe may vary based on the chosen embellishments, added services, and total quantities ordered.
It’s important to note that this estimate excludes shipping time and any assembly on the client’s end.
Step One
Choose Your Suite
Browse the collections and pick the one that fits your style. Add on all your embellishment options and quantities to your cart. You can even have a color change to match your event palette.

Place Your Order
After checkout, I’ll send you a questionnaire to gather all the essential details about your event. This is also the time to submit your final guest list, if you ordered guest printing.
Step Three
Design & Proofing
You will receive your first design proof within 7 business days after sharing your event details. You have 3 complimentary rounds of digital proofing for your review and approval.
Step Four

Once the final proofs are approved, production will begin. You will receive your suite pieces along with an assembly guide to help you prepare and send your invitations to your guests!
