The Process
Step 1
Make an appointment to meet up with our designer for a chat on the theme of your wedding / special occasion.
A face-to-face meeting will be a good start to understanding your needs and personal style. If you would prefer to communicate via email and / phone, you can do so too.
It would be a good idea to decide on what you like beforehand in terms of colours, styles, patterns and the mood of the occasion. Focus on elements which carry special meaning for the both of you and colours which blend in harmony with your theme colour/s. Bring along anything that you feel may enable us to understand your style better - fabric swatches, pictures from magazines etc. While viewing samples, communicate your likes and dislikes by letting us know what you like about an invite and what you dont about it.
For us to provide you with a quote, you will need to furnish us with details such as quantity and based on the discussion, we will make some suggestions and estimate the price of producing the suggested design options.
TIP: Generally, the price depends on the complexity of the design, number of printed colours, whether it has extra finishing like embossing or assembly work with ribbons and also the quantity required (the lesser the quantity the higher the unit price and vice versa)

If you think you like our concept and would be able to work together well, we will request a start-up deposit (non-refundable) to kickstart any artwork, which will be subtracted from the total amount of your order.
Step 2
On your second meeting / email, the designer presents a few visuals based on your feedback from the first meeting.
Decide on the design closest to your expectations and work on details that you would like to add on or remove. In the course of the design and content development of your invitation, we will provide you with 1 complimentary mock-up and 3 rounds of amendments / electronic proofs.

Step 3
Finalise the details
Finalise & check the invitation details i.e.names, venue, time etc. and via phone, fax and email you may communicate with your designer to make the final adjustments to your card. Remember that you are only allowed 3 rounds of amendments (anything more you will be charged) so try to confirm your invitation details as best as possible before submitting them to us.
Do keep in mind that you will need to check the final proof carefully as it will be the confirmed artwork that will go to print. If you have overlooked any mistakes and need to reprint, you will have to bear the charges fully.
Once you confirm the final copy, it will take about 2 weeks (for cards with just printing) before your invitations are delivered to you and 3 - 4 weeks (for cards with extra finishing, ribbons and embellishments). So remember to time the date of delivery to coincide to when you need to send the invitations out.
