From
the Shelf – designer wedding stationery
Firstly, pour yourself a cup of tea and browse through
our wide collection of ready made designs. Once you have seen a design that is perfect for you,
contact us to talk about your details and we will organize a quote for you with
no obligation. Once everything sounds good to you, we will ask you
for all your details, your design choice, wording, colours and so on. The more details you can supply us at the start, the
better, so this process runs smoothly for you. When all details are clear, we will then require a 50%
deposit to get the design ball rolling.
Once we have your deposit, we will start on your design
and email you a ‘First Look’ as a PDF proof. We can have a ‘First Look’ to you
with-in seven days. You can then make us aware of any changes needed. Your first four PDF proofs are free. If you require more
then these four PDF proofs because of further changes this will be an added cost
of $10.00 per PDF that we send to you.
When you are happy with your PDF proof, we then
recommend you order a printed proof that we will post to you. This is an added
cost of $20.00. We highly recommend this for checking colours etc.
After you have approved your printed proof, we will
then send through a proofing agreement as well as the final invoice that will
need to be paid before we go to print. The proofing agreement is a guideline for you to
follow to ensure you have checked all aspects of your design. Although we
preform quality checks our end, it is your responsibility to check all your
details are correct. We can not accept responsibility for any errors detected
after approval of print.
Then, look out in your mail box with excitement for
your beautiful wedding stationery! Expect this to arrive within two weeks after
approval of print, depending on shipping times.
Drawing Board – custom wedding stationery
We will require a more in depth consult to discuss
your custom design details. Give us a call or email and we can organize a time
for a consult either by phone or in person if you are local. This is a free
service with no obligation. During this consultation we will gather your
information and ideas to form a concrete idea on what your design will look
like.
From here, please follow the same instructions under
the ‘From the Shelf’ instructions.

order required is 40 invitations or other stationery, excluding seating plans or

invitations then you need, between five and ten is a good number. This will give
you peace of mind if you make any errors or you have any unexpected extra
