Our Design Process
After receiving your order, our designers will create a digital proof based on the information you provide us within two business days. We will NOT print your order until you have received a digital proof and have given us your approval. You will have the chance to make changes to your design. You also have the option to see a printed proof before you have approved your order. There is a charge to print and mail these proofs. PLEASE NOTE that if you forego seeing a printed proof of your order all guarantees of reprints due to the way colors or pictures are printed will be voided and you will take full responsibility for any reprint costs. Final payment is due when you approve to print. Before doing so you will need to use the checklist provided with each proof to make sure there are no errors. We will not be responsible for any errors that have been approved. If you have additional questions, please contact us today.

5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW WHEN CREATING YOUR GUEST LIST

guest.listHere’s 5 things you need to know when planning your Wedding Guest List!

1. EVERYTHING Revolves around WHO you invite!!
Good luck having any productive meetings with your reception venue, caterer, florist…etc until you have an idea of how many guests you’ll be expecting. It’s nearly impossible to know what to budget for anything until you have a number in mind.

If you’re planning on an epic day with EVERYONE you know, you’ll want to consider that before selecting your venues. (remember you’ll have to FEED all these people, be prepared to budget accordingly) If you’re dead set on the WHERES, find out how many guests the venues can hold comfortably and use that as a guide for your guest list. If it’s going to be a small, intimate affair, make sure you are in agreement on who that small group will include

2. Who do you invite?
It sounds like such an easy question!! It’s not. At all.
You’ll realize the lists for ‘yes’ and ‘maybe’ start to blur together. It’s extremely hard to decide if you invite the co worker you chat with every day, or your old college friend who’s never even met your fiance. Or what about your mom’s best friends or your dad’s golfing buddy? And, do you invite your cousin who’s wedding you skipped out on knowing she’s probably still upset you didn’t show?!
Talk about stress!

3. Stay Organized
You want to keep an OFFICIAL list easy to read and edit. It’s suggest to use an Excel document so you can alphabetize and keep a running tab of your guest count. That way you can keep going back to it to add or subtract names and addresses easily. Just start from the beginning with a plan and you’ll be glad that you did. (It will then be super easy to send the same folks ‘Save the Dates’, invites and later, the ‘Thank You’ notes!)

4. Grammar and wording are kind of a big deal
Or would it be ‘is’ kind of a big deal? Anyway, many modern couples have strayed away from the traditional invites–so if that’s you, carry on my creative friend!

5. Addressing your Invites
Yay! The final step of this tedious process! If you’re printing your own labels, design them in the same font and style as you used on the invitations.

As far as the NAMES go, you might want to try and address each of them based on your relationship.
