How to Book an Appointment?
We are committed to providing personalized service that meets the unique needs and preferences of each of our clients. We believe that every event deserves a custom invitation that reflects the style, tone, and vision of the occasion. To ensure that we create an invitation that perfectly captures your vision, we recommend starting with an initial phone conversation. During this call, we will discuss your needs and budget, as well as any design ideas or themes that you have in mind.
After the initial phone call, we are happy to accommodate in-person appointments for local customers at our Ronkonkoma studio. For customers further away - more than 25 miles from our studio or disabled customers, we offer a Shop-At-Home service, where we will come to you.
Non-Local Customers: For clients who are located further away, we understand that an in-person appointment may not be feasible. In this case, we are happy to host a virtual video appointment. During the virtual appointment, we can discuss your needs and preferences, show you examples of our work, and answer any questions that you may have. Additionally, we can ship physical samples directly to you so that you can see and feel the quality of our products firsthand.
We believe that every client is unique, and we are committed to providing personalized service that meets your specific needs. Our goal is to make the invitation design process as smooth and stress-free as possible, so that you can focus on planning and enjoying your special event.
What Do Invitations Cost?
Every invitation is unique and the cost can vary depending on several factors such as the quantity needed, the materials used, the additional services requested, the timeframe of delivery, and whether it is a custom order Semi-Custom. While there is no simple answer to how much an invitation order will cost, we work with customers of all budgets to create custom designs that fit their needs and preferences.
We believe that every event deserves a beautiful invitation, and we are committed to helping you create the perfect one within your budget. So whether you're planning a small intimate gathering or a large-scale event, we are here to work with you and create something truly special.
Can I See a Sample?
We understand that visualizing the final product can be challenging without seeing and feeling the physical samples. That's why we have a wide range of printed materials available for you to browse through.
We have a vast collection of samples in various styles, materials, and print processes that you can see, touch, and feel during your appointment. We want you to be fully confident and satisfied with your choice before placing your order.
When you place your order, you will get a detailed digital mock-up of your order in a proofing document of all of the pieces and printing processes to approve before printing.
When Should I Make an Appointment?
We recommend that you schedule your appointment with us no earlier than 6-8 months prior to your event date. This also helps you know your final guest list closer to your wedding or event date. Typically, orders take between 2 to 5 weeks to complete, depending on the type of order you place. We will work closely with you throughout the process to ensure that everything is done in a timely and efficient manner.
When Should I Send My Invitations Out?
WEDDINGS AND FORMAL EVENTS:
Traditionally, wedding invitations are sent out 3 months before the wedding date. However, if you are having a destination wedding or if many of your guests will need to make travel arrangements, it is recommended to send the invitations out 5-6 months in advance to give them enough time to plan accordingly. This may vary depending on if you sent Save-The-Dates out.
CASUAL OCCASIONS:
For an event like a bridal shower or graduation party, it's generally recommended to send out invitations 4-6 weeks before the event date. This gives your guests enough time to RSVP and plan accordingly. If it's a particularly busy time of year, such as during the holiday season or summer vacation, you may want to send invitations out even earlier to ensure that your guests are available and able to attend.
