You can order things as you go along from us all we need to know is what items you want and the design we wouldnt print and make them till you had all the correct info and as long as that is no later than 4 weeks before the wedding it isnt a problem

Hiya, there are many suppliers on here in the directory that are fab and do some lovely bespoke work both printed and hand crafted,

With regards to ordering all at once my brides in partrticular find this useful as they benefit from more full package discounts and free seating plans ect and we adjust the balance to suit the numbers from the initial quote in the final payment as these items begin to go to print.

Our other option is just orderning direct through our site for individual items, from a print point of veiw our turn around is pretty quick if you are going handcrafted i should imagine the suppliers would need a rough idea for on the day stationery as it can take time to produce these items by hand so need to allocate slots and timescales.

hope this helps a bit

regards kirsty

Meant to say also all finer details are usually organised nearer the time i ask my clients to give me a week before there wedding day for place cards ect as guest lists can often change and order of service 2 weeks prior as your vicar usually likes to see a copy so gives me enough time to liase with them before print

Hi Puddycat

I'd love to help. I offer a FREE, no obligation design service and work with you to design your perfect stationery whilst working to your budget.

I offer printed, handmade and even laser cut stationery. All work is produced in house to assure the quality.

I do usually advise my clients to book everything at the same time just to guarantee that I can then do their on the day items for them as I get booked up so far in advance. That said, I don't ask you to pay for everything up front. There is a 75/25/25% split and you don't need to confirm numbers etc until 4 weeks before the wedding which gives you the flexibility at the end so you don't have to pay for something you may not need at the end.

If you'd like to see some of my portfolio you can check out www.inspiremedesigns.co.uk or on facebook at www.facebook.com/inspiremedesigns

On the subject of stationary, is it possible for someone to just quote on a5 printed inserts? I'd do it myself by my printer is naff. Wondered if it was a done thing?

thanks

Hi HelsAngel

I can certainly do that for you. Nothing is an unreasonable request

Although, if you have a printers near you that may be another option.

Nat

Thanks for replying so quickly. I'm going to get my bits together and get a move on with it I think.

Thank you all. This most certainly gives me some options. Maybe I am just fussy? I am very nervous of the fact that the invitation speaks a 1000 words!

I like the way you think Puddycat.... I obviously feel the same way. Stationery is SO important as its not just a piece of paper, it's an invitation to the most important day of your lives ?

Nat

Do you think it's really important? Now I'm having a bit of a think.

My evening invites are really basic and the majority of people will be getting these. Just a postcard type thing printed with all the info and with a pretty design around the edge. I might mount them, I doubt it though. I'd rather spend money on more people coming. I was quoted £650 for 25 day invites, 50 evening invites and 50 place names and it scared the bejeesus out of me! From that point I said I'd rather do a facebook group invite for free!!

With regards to ordering all at once my brides in partrticular find this useful as they benefit from more full package discounts and free seating plans ect and we adjust the balance to suit the numbers from the initial quote in the final payment as these items begin to go to print.

Wow ! thats expensive our price would have been more around the £150-£200 mark!

Once again please feel free to email me X

HelsAngel - I obviously think they are important as it's what I do and I LOVE all kinds of stationery but it comes down to budget and what you think is important. Everybody is different. If it's not so important to you then use that money in more important places.

For me, there is nothing like getting a lovely invite in the post ?

Beautiful invites don't have to cost the earth either. I work within the clients budget to produce something special for them whilst they stay in control of how much they want to spend.

Nat

Apologies, I didn't mean for it to sound like I was belittling it. It was more a question like "Oh no! Is it that important and I'm just kind of winging it?" but then I guess, like you say, it depends on what's important to you. ?

Oh no, I know how it was meant to come out hence why I was trying to say yes, it's important to some but not as important to others. It's where you see it's importance that matters. Please don't panic ?

I was always taught ........ First Impressions Count....... I have found many many times in life that there is never a truer word said. (To look at me you would Never in a million years guess what i do for a living lol). So to me YES it is very important. Not only due to first impressions but it will help to create the magical day and evening that I am dreaming of. It gives people an idea of what to expect so they can do things for example dress appropriately! ?

I make wedding stationery and can work with you to create new designs etc to fit your theme and budget, feel free to have a look through my site x

I had some lovely, cheap invitations made by Confetti.

Hi Puddycat (great name btw!)

I designand make wedding stationery and can certainly help you out. My website is undergoing some work at the moment, but i have some designs on my facebook page and can certainly email you some more including some new ones. I also offer a free bespoke service.

When ordering you can order the amount of menus and OoS you need, but you can finalise at a later date. I've had brides finalise these a week before the wedding!!! Not ideal, but it can be done

please feel free to email me if you think I can be of help
