Bespoke Designs

We are pleased to offer you a bespoke design service to help you to bring your own ideas to life. So how does it work?

Consultation

The first step is to arrange a consultation to discuss your requirements, share ideas and agree a production slot. This can take place either in person, via Zoom or FaceTime or by phone.

Prior to the consultation, it would be helpful if you could send us your design ideas, colour preferences, inspirational images, preferred fonts, invitation style etc. to enable us to prepare in advance. If you haven’t got a clue where to start, don’t worry as we will talk everything through with you during the consultation.

We strongly recommend that you book your consultation at least 3 – 4 months before your invitations are required. The earlier your consultation, the more time we will have to spend on designing your perfect stationery, so please book as soon as possible.

Quote

Following the consultation, we will send you a detailed quote for the cost of your stationery. Depending upon the complexity of the design and the estimated timescale involved, we may charge a design fee . This can be between £30 – £150 and will be included in your quote, if applicable.

Upon acceptance of the quote, we will send you an invoice for your deposit and design fee (if applicable).

The deposit is 50% of the total cost of your order and is non-refundable.

Design

Once we have received your payment, we will commence work on your design. We will keep in contact with you throughout the design process to make sure we are on the right track and to notify you of any amendments that we may deem necessary.

Proofs will be sent to you for your approval and you will then have the opportunity to make any changes or tweaks to the final design.

Production

Once we have received your final approval, we will be able to start work on your order. We will commence production on the date agreed during the consultation, or earlier if our workload allows.

When your stationery is finished, we will send you an invoice for the final balance and upon receipt of your payment, we will arrange for your order to be delivered or collected.  

Intellectual Property

All bespoke designs remain the intellectual property of Inviting Concepts and we reserve the right to include them in our house collection. However, we will not do so until your invitations have been distributed to all of your guests. Nor will we share any images of your invitations on our social media channels or showcase them at wedding fayres prior to this time. You can therefore be confident that the design will remain confidential until your guests receive them.
