Timings - How long does it take?

Once we receive your order form, then you should expect to receive a sample design within one week.

 

When should we send out our stationery?

Save the Date Cards - On average Save the Date cards would be send out between 12-18 months before the wedding, If you are getting married abroad then you might want to do this a little earlier.

Wedding Invitations - This is totally up to you. On average, invitations would normally be sent out between 3-6 months before the wedding. If you choose not to send Save the Date cards then you might decide to send your invitations a little earlier.

 

How many do we need?

It’s always better to have too many than too few, also it’s always nice to keep a couple for keepsakes. Remember most of your guests will be couples, so as a general rule divide the total number of guests list by 2, then add on an additional 15 - 20% for spares and last minute changes to the guest list.

Proofs

Proofs: Proofs are a rough idea of what the finished printing will look like, it is not a guarantee that the colours will be exactly as on the proof sheet. Proofs also differ from different monitor and mobile screens along with different laser and inkjet prints outs.
