New Year: Old Rule! - Availability & Ordering Dates

To ensure that there is sufficient time for the design phase and assembly of your event stationery, please contact us to reserve a date based on the guidelines below. As a suggestion, invitations should be sent out at least 8 weeks in advance. We recommend that you order 6-8 weeks prior to this deadline. With this in mind, your invitations should ideally be ordered 14-16 weeks (3.5-4 months) in advance of your wedding. The following is an order schedule for weddings with invitations being mailed 8 weeks before your event. For a custom design, you will want to book your invitation consultation at least 6 months in advance of your wedding. Please note that these are simply guidelines and we may be able to accommodate rush orders.
