Wedding Suite Ordering Guide

As a letterpress printer I love the impression paper can make. I also know it can be intimidating to navigate the print world as a bride with so many options. That’s where semi-custom comes in! I have partnered with the best designers I know to create semi-custom wedding suites accompanied by a curated selection of colors and finishing options, ready to be personalized for you. It’s as simple as deciding on the style you love, which pieces you will need and which colors work best for you. Please feel free to connect with me if you have additional questions!

Step 1

Browse the collection, select your design and the pieces you need.

Be sure to explore the extras and add-ons, like envelope liners, address printing and belly bands.

Step 2

When you add your items to your cart you will fill in the details needed to customize your suite. If you are unsure of any details at the moment you can leave the space blank, but all information will be required before customization can begin.

Step 3

Once I have received your complete information I will create your design based on the details provided. You can expect your first proof within 3-5 business days of your purchase. Included in your purchase is 3 rounds of digital proofs, your first proof will be designed to your specifications from your original form. You then have two rounds of revisions to alter your information or ink color selection. If more revisions are needed additional fees will be charged.

Step 4

Your first proof will be sent in 3-5 business days, after that your timeline will depend on how quickly you respond. Please allow 3 business days for every revision to be made and resent.

With your final approval of the design, we will move to the print stage. Printing turnaround time is typically 4-5 weeks from the time of artwork approval, plus shipping time. Once we are in the printing phase we are unable to make changes to your order.

print methods & paper

letterpress

$$$

Letterpress projects will be printed on our most luxury paper, 220# cotton. This soft, textured paper is double thick (slightly thicker than a credit card) and allows for a pillowy impression.

Letterpress is a traditional style of printing on a 150+ year old machine. It is a handcrafted method that yields gorgeous, tangible results that creates an impression down into the paper.

premium digital

A more common print method, printed directly from computer to printer, but elevated with the same double-thick cotton paper I use for letterpress. A good middle-of-the-road between luxury and budget-friendly.

digital

Digital printing on a cotton cardstock that allows a crisp, beautiful print!

My signature paper is cotton, 100# in bright white.

blind pass

Many Inky designs feature a print method called “blind pass”, this is essentially letterpress printing without the ink. It creates a lovely impression into the paper that is tactile and add dimensions to a design.

Any design from the Wedding Shop that has blind impression will be printed as such, regardless of selected print method for the rest of the design. The depth of impression will vary based on paper.

ink colors

I offer a selection of curated ink colors for wedding suites. You are also able to request a custom color for an additional cost of $50. Please add the item “Custom Ink Color” to your cart from the Extras & Add Ons.
