What's Included
All Suites Include an A7 Invitation on 220# Cotton paper, a reply card on 110# Cotton Paper, and Deep-V Euroflap Envelopes with Complimentary guest and return addressing. Invitations and Reply cards are letterpress printed. This is everything you need for a beautiful, effective invitation suite. Most couples choose to provide a QR code to their website on the Reply card, where they provide accommodations, registry information, etc. Couples who want a larger, more traditional invitation suite can add additional inserts- rehearsal dinner cards are especially popular.
How Ordering Works
Here's how it works:
- Place your order.
- Complete your customization form.
- Complete your guest-address spreadsheet.
- Receive your digital proof within 3 business days of customization form submission.
- Approve your proof.
- Printing begins after proof approval and spreadsheet receipt.
- Your order ships within 10 business days after proof approval and guest-address spreadsheet submission.
Timeline Recommendations
If you view and respond to your proofs promptly, you will need to allow about two weeks for customization and production, and up to four additional days for shipping. Standard mailing etiquette recommends mailing your incitations six weeks (for a local wedding) or eight weeks (for a destination wedding) before your wedding date. To keep the entire process as stress-free as possible, we recommend purchasing your suites at least three months before your wedding date.
Customization Options
Customization options that are not included in the base suite are listed as options on the product page. These include:
Die Cutting: (shaped cards) you can choose this for the main invitation, the rsvp card, or both. You can mix and match different shapes. Some designs require a slightly different layout on a shaped card. If you do not like the layout of the suite on the shaped card when you see it in your digital proof, you may switch shapes or be refunded the cost of the die cutting upgrade.
Hot Foil: Foiling uses a heated metal die and pressure to transfer a metallic foil to your card. It delivers the same deep, fluffy embossment that you can expect to see in letterpress printing. Our house gold is a balanced, light gold that we love for being not-too-yellow. Our house gold and silver foils are legible on bright and pearl white cardstock. In your customization form, you can indicate to us if you have any special requests for the foiling- you might want the entire card printed in foil or you might choose to have just the names or decorative elements printed in gold, with the rest of the card letterpresses in a color of your choice.
Quantity Considerations
Customization Options Explained
We will work quickly to ship your order as soon as possible. Once your order has shipped, you will receive an email with further information. Delivery times vary depending on your location.
Remember to select the quantity of households you are mailing to, not total guest headcount. If you anticipate that you will mail a second round of invitations after receiving your first round of rsvps, we recommend adding 10-15 extra suites to your initial order. You can leave these envelopes blank or go ahead and provide the addresses of your back-up guest list. Reprinting the suite at a later date- even for a small quantity- will cost more than ordering a few more now and slow down your mailing process.
