The
first step is to contact us. We can then chat about what you have in mind
as well as discuss the possibilities – colours, themes, styles,
materials, wording, etc. We can chat via email, telephone, online Messenger - whatever works best for you! |
||||||||||||
Once
you are ready to move forward with the design process, we require a non-refundable custom design and mockup fee. Our design fee varies, dependent upon the scope of the project. Once we've had an opportunity to chat with you to discuss your stationery needs, we'll provide you with a quote for the design fee. Fees range from $35-$75, with the average custom design and mock up fee for a custom wedding invitation set being $75 or less. |
||||||||||||
As
soon your design fee is received, the design process begins! Depending on
the complexity of the design(s), 1-3 mock up(s) will be presented to you within
approximately 5-10 business days (dependent upon our current work schedule). We will then work with you to tweak
the preferred design so that it is exactly what you envision – we want you
to be thrilled with the outcome!
Once you are completely satisfied with the design and layout, we will send you a Final Proof and a Design Agreement. It is very important for you to carefully review the final proof as thoroughly as possible – this proof, as you see it, is exactly as your items will be produced. You must ensure that you approve of the layout, wording, spelling, dates, fonts, justification, punctuation, etc. Should revisions be required, they will be made and additional proof(s) will be sent to you. Please note that it is the client’s responsibility to carefully review the final proof; we are not responsible for any errors after the final proof has been approved and signed off on. |
||||||||||||
Both the Final
Proof and the Design Agreement need to be signed and returned to us (via
mail or fax), along with payment. Please note that as of July 1, 2010 all of our products are TAX FREE! Yes, you read that right, all of our products are exempt from sales tax. It's an added perk that you benefit from if you opt to order from us (most clients seem to appreciate this little bonus!) |
||||||||||||
Once your
final payment has cleared, specialty materials are ordered and production of your order begins!
Our stationery items are hand assembled and customized to your specifications;
factors such as quantity, style, materials used and the overall complexity
of the design will influence the actual production time. Our invitations and items are hand crafted and are carefully assembled; as we consider our items to be small works of art, great attention is paid to the details. We take special care in creating, assembling and packaging your order; every item is carefully inspected and must meet our high standards. Production generally takes between 5-20 business days (after final payment has cleared and a signed Final Proof/Design Agreement has been received). We know how anxious one can get while waiting for something like invitations to arrive, and therefore we strive to complete orders as quickly as possible, without compromising quality. |

You
will be provided with a shipping quote after your design has been finalized.
We offer different shipping options; local orders are delivered via courier or ExpressPost and international orders are delivered via expedited parcel or ExpressPost. The cost of shipping is dependent upon the weight and size of the order,
as well as the destination; we make every effort to keep shipping charges
at a minimum. All packages sent via Canada Post are fully insured.
Shipping of international orders (outside of Canada) may incur additional charges such as customs and duty fees. Any additional fees are the sole responsibility of the customer. |
