When should I order my wedding invitations?
You should aim to order your stationery at least 6-8 weeks before you wish to send out your invitations.
When should I be sending my invitations out?
Your invitations should be sent approx 12 weeks before your big day. If you are getting married in the summer months of July or August, it is worth sending them out even earlier as holidays are often booked months in advance. Alternatively, you can send 'Save the Date' cards out - anything from 12 months before your wedding, and then send your invitations 12 weeks before.
How many invitations will I need?
You need to send 1 x invitation per household. On average this is half the amount of daytime guests. Evening invitations tend to require slightly more as there will be more single guests.
Do I need to order all my wedding stationery together?
Ideally yes – As this will ensure consistency in colours and materials etc.
What if I don’t know how many name places etc I will need?
If you aren’t sure of exact numbers for your Menus, Order of Service, Name Places etc, please just estimate and they can be adjusted as required nearer the time.
What if I haven’t decided on our menu choices yet?
Wording requirements for your Menu & Order of Service will need to be provided 6 weeks prior to your wedding day. The names for your Table Plan & Name Places will need to be provided 3 weeks prior to your wedding.
Do I need to pay a deposit?
A 50% deposit is required to secure your booking and is non-refundable.
When will I need to pay the outstanding balance?
The balance will be payable once your proofs have been approved. Your order will not be dispatched until your remaining balance has been settled.
Will I receive samples of my order for proof reading?
Yes - Proof reading is the client’s responsibility and any amendments required after approval will be charged accordingly. Your order will not be dispatched until a signed proof reading form is returned.
How will my order be delivered?
Unless otherwise agreed, all orders will be sent via Royal Mail’s Special Delivery or Courier and will need to be signed for. Delivery charges may vary and will be added to your final invoice.
