Invitation
ASSEMBLY
Did you know that invitation assembly is actually one of the lengthiest parts of the process? Let us do the heavy lifting for you! With this add-on service you will receive all of your invitations pre-stuffed and sealed, ready for you to simply post and send.
We understand wedding needs are different and that each couple has a unique wedding vision, which is why we offer personalized quotes instead of set prices for set quantities. After you submit your request, we will create your quote based off of the preferences submitted within 1-3 business days.

Depending on the printing method and the embellishments chosen, it can take 4 to 8 weeks from the day the order is placed to the day the invitation suites are delivered to you. It is important to note that, depending on the size of the order and how many revisions are needed, your order might take more time to be delivered.
It is industry standard to send out invitations 6-8 weeks before the wedding. In addition, Remember to add the time you need to assemble and mail your invitations (if you did not add-on assembly services).
Taking all of these considerations in mind, I recommend placing your order at least 4 months before your wedding day - the earlier, the better!
As for day-of paper goods, your order will take about 3-5 weeks from the day the order is placed to the day it is delivered to your doorstep. However, similar to invitation suites, the amount of revisions and the size of your order can make this production time fluctuate.
-
Please note that not every guest gets an invitation. Accounting for families and couples, invitation count is usually around 70% of the final guest count. In addition, it is recommended to add 15% extra invitations for any last minute additions to your guest list. This allows you and your family to have a copy as a keepsake and have extra suites for your photographer to use for details flatlays.

Unfortunately, we do not provide the design digital files for our projects.

After your first proof is sent out, you are allowed 3 additional rounds of revisions. Any extra revision rounds past the three included, will incur a charge of $50 per revision.

It depends! If it is something as easy as “can I substitute the font form X suite, with the font from X suite?” we can most likely make the change. However, these are accepted on a case-by-case basis.
