The ordering process
the semi-custom collection
Initial contact
If you have had a look through our semi-custom collection and you have decided you would like to work together, the first step is to drop me an email letting me know which suite you are interested in, the date of your wedding and the rough quantities and which pieces you are thinking of. Don’t worry if you don’t know exact numbers at this stage, we can work off your estimate to begin with and confirm final numbers before printing.
Once I have received all your details and we have confirmed the design details, a 50% deposit will be required to secure your booking in my calendar.
2. The design Proof
Due to the nature of Letterpress we cannot provide you with a physical proof but we can send you a digital version which will be as near to the real thing as possible.
The information and details on the invitations will be altered with your own and minor adjustments can be made at this stage. The proof will be sent to you by email for your approval. Once you have checked the proof and given us the go ahead, the design will be ordered from the plate makers so that printing can begin.
3. PRINTING
Once the plates have been made and materials ordered, we will begin printing your wedding stationery. Everything is hand-printed on either our 1920s treadle press or our British built hot foil press. With everything being printed in house, we can ensure meticulous quality and attention to detail.
4.DELIVERY
Once printing is complete, your stationery will be carefully packaged up to send to you. It is at this stage that we require the final payment before any work can be posted. Everything is posted with Royal Mail signed for and we will let you know in advance so you know when to expect it.
