How
soon should I order?
Invitations for formal events are usually sent out within a 6-8
week time frame. In addition to our 4-6 week production process,
you should ideally order four months in advance of the anticipated
event.
How long will it take to complete my invitations?
Blank notecards and quantities of less than a quantity of 50 can
generally be completed within 5-7 working days. For quantities of
over 50, with various components (RSVP cards, map inserts, reception
card) we request you give us 4-6 weeks from start
to finish, to complete an order. If your invitations are needed
sooner, please contact us with your order details and we will try
to accomodate your needs. Also, if your invitations require imported
fabrics, we may need additional time for overseas shipment to arrive.
Note that a $60
rush fee will apply for order quantities of 50 or more
invitation sets needed earlier than 4 weeks.
How do I order?
You may call us (209) 406-4891 to place an order or fill out a form
with your invitation details. If your product does not require
printing and is less than a quanitity of 50, you can purchase directly
online. For invitations of more than 50 requiring printing, a 50%
deposit is required before production begins. This can be paid by
check, money order, or through Paypal, our payment system. This
will be deducted from your final order total, but is not refundable
if your order is cancelled. The remainder of your total is due prior
to shipping. We will send you an invoice via Paypal for both the
initial 50% deposit and the remaining payment.
What is the whole order process?
The invitation process is approximately 4-6 weeks and consists of
the following:
- Fill out the online
order request form. Please be as specific as possible with all
the event details. If you do not know what wording to use, we
can assist you.
- We will generate
a proof based on the information given.
- A proof will be
emailed to you for approval. A physical proof can also be mailed
to you for a $20 fee.
- After final proof
approval, we will send you an agreement letter which needs to
be signed and mailed back to us along with a
50% deposit, payable through Paypal, check or money order.
- We will then begin
production on your order based on the final proof. Therefore,
carefully review the proof to make sure it meets your expectations.
- Invitations will
ship out on the day of completion by USPS. The remaining 50% balance
is due at that time. Note that payments made by personal check
will have a ten day hold.

textures, dimensions and the unique personality of each invitation.
