INVITATION SUITE DESIGN PROCESS
I. CONSULTATION
The invitation process begins with an opportunity to talk through your wedding and the vision you have for your wedding invitations. I will gain a better understanding of your invitation style, printing preference, and anything you will need to make your invitation suite perfect.
II. PROPOSAL, QUOTE, DEPOSIT INVOICE & CONTRACT
I will send you a tailored proposal with visuals for inspiration, pricing and a quote. If you would like to go ahead, I will send an invoice for 50% of the total cost as a deposit together with a contract to sign. Once your deposit payment has been received, you will receive a welcome email with next steps, timescales and instructions on how & when to submit your information. If a deposit isn’t received within 7 days the contract will be voided.
III. DESIGN
As I begin the design phase, I will take everything we discussed during your consultation and incorporate it into your invitation suite.
I will be on hand to expertly guide you through wording and etiquette.
IV. REVIEW & REFINE
Once the design of your invitation suite is complete, you will receive your first set of digital proofs. Together, we will carefully review your initial proofs to ensure everything is accurate & we will collaborate to achieve the perfect design you love. If you would like to make any changes, I will provide a second round of proofs based on your feedback. Further revisions will happen if necessary and will only incur a cost if changes are significantly different from the initial brief and design.
V. FINAL APPROVAL, PAYMENT & PRODUCTION
When you are 100% happy with your design, I will send you your final print ready proof for approval in order to send your items into production. It is important at this stage to check all spelling and information included as it cannot be changed once it is printed . After you approve your proofs and pay your final balance, your order will be scheduled for production. The printing and production of your invitation suite may take anywhere from two to eight weeks depending on the quantity, printing method and scope of your order.
VI. ASSEMBLY & DELIVERY
After receiving the completed printing, every order is carefully inspected, assembled and packaged before it leaves the studio.
