While the following items are not automatically included in your semi-custom invitation suite booking, they CAN be added on for an additional cost:
Guest-addressing on Envelopes
Assembly
Design customizations (font and/or monogram swaps)
Printing Upgrades (letterpress, blind debossing and metallic foil printing)
Add-On’s (wax seals, ribbon, wraps, envelope liners, etc.)
*Please note that we do not offer mailing service for semi-custom invitation suites.
First, we’ll hop on a quick Inquiry Call (if requested) to make sure you’re feeling confident in the Semi-Custom Suite, Printing Upgrades and Add-On’s you’d like to book.
Then, we’ll send along a custom proposal tailored to your needs. If everything looks good, you can confirm the items that you’d like to book, sign your contract and make your deposit payment all at once.
If anything ends up changing during the design process that affects your invoice total, we will either send a second invoice or issue a refund prior to shipping your completed invitations to you.
The Inquiry Call is typically a short, ~20 minute call covering the following:
Your theme and style
Which suite package is the best fit for you (3, 4 or 5-piece)
How many suites you’ll need
Your ideal mailing date
The booking and design process
Any other questions you have :)
This is a great opportunity to order a Sample Pack!
Each pack includes:
Any (9) color swatches (your choice)
Printed Card Samples (showcasing Digital Printing, Letterpress Printing, Metallic Foil Printing and a Die-Cut Card)
Wax Seal samples
Ribbon samples
There’s also a space for you to make additional requests when checking out – if there’s anything else you’d like to see in-person, we’ll do our best to include it in your Sample Pack!
First of all, make sure that you are ordering one invitation suite per household – not per guest.
We recommend ordering one invitation suite per household on your guest list, plus an additional 10% on top of that to get your total order amount. This allows for keepsakes, any last-minute guest address changes, guest list additions, USPS mishaps, or any errors that may occur during addressing. It’s always better to have a few more than to come up short!
Tip – traditionally, adult roommates or adult children living with their parents should receive their own invitation suites.
We require orders to be placed at least 4 weeks before the date you would like to mail your invitations (typically mailing out ~3 months prior to your wedding date).
During the Inquiry Call, we can discuss your timeline with you on when we should get started on your suite based on your wedding date and your ideal mailing date.
If you place your order well in advance, we will put you on our calendar so that the delivery of your suites will happen at least one week prior to your ideal mailing date. If you order closer to that 4-week mark, your order will be put into production right away.
We will send you an ‘Information Gathering’ questionnaire (along with your invoice) to fill out by a specific date. This form covers your wedding details, design/color preferences – plus any extra requests.
You will receive your first proof within 5 to 7 business days of your ‘Information Gathering’ form due date.
We’d be happy to have a conversation about it! We keep personalization as flexible as possible, as long as the essence of the suite remains the same. If there is something you’re dying to have, we can discuss your ideas during your Inquiry Call and provide pricing for your requested customization(s) on your proposal.
If you're looking for something even more personalized, we also offer Fully Custom Invitation Suite Design.
Orders can be ready to pick up or ship within 4 weeks. Because of the personalized nature of our design process and our small business practices, we do not guarantee anything shorter than a 4-week turnaround without a rush fee.
Unlike some print-on-demand companies, we do not print all pieces in-house. We also ensure that quality checks are happening at every point of the process. If you need your order in less than 4 weeks, please contact us at info@berriesandbloomsstudio.com to inquire about a rush.
Orders that contain the following items will require additional production time:
Letterpress printing
Blind debossing
Metallic foil printing
Custom maps and/or illustrations
Assembly service
If no proof has been presented: 75% refund
If a proof has been presented: 50% refund
If a Print Agreement has been signed, but production has not begun: 25% refund
Once production begins, no refunds will be accepted.
At this time we are working to create a Semi-Custom collection of matching Day-Of Signage goods! Please keep an eye on our website and social media channels for further updates.
