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.

THE ONLY TIME YOU REALLY DON’T NEED TO SEND A WEDDING GIFT
When the Bride and Groom request no gifts, it’s really okay! It’s true that many people may give a gift anyway, but you should feel comfortable taking the couple at their word. And even if others do give a gift, you won’t look bad by comparison; after all, you’re only respecting their wishes.
For couples who don’t wish to receive wedding gifts, spread the message by word of mouth and on your wedding website. As wedding invitations shouldn’t have any reference to gifts, there’s no need to mention it there — in fact, you shouldn’t. Even though it might be seen as a “relief” to guests, it still distracts from the main focus of a wedding invitation, which is to invite those you love to share in your wedding.
If you do receive gifts despite your request, don’t make a fuss or refuse to accept them. A gentle, “You shouldn’t have!” wouldn’t be remiss, but don’t express annoyance or anger at having your request ignored. Thank the giver as graciously as you would for any other gift with a handwritten thank-you note sent within three months of returning from your honeymoon.
