Questions we hear

Design concept: dusty blue linen pocket, wax seal

“Everyone who received one commented on how beautiful they were.”

Barbara and Wade

What is the difference between classic and elegant invitations?

Very little. Classic usually means a traditional layout and wording; elegant is how it feels: fine paper, restrained colour and one finish done well. Most of our elegant suites are both.

How do we word a formal invitation?

The traditional order is the hosts, the request line, your names, then the date, time and place, with reply details on a separate card. We send a wording guide with your proofs and check every line with you.

How do we word a formal invitation?

Can an elegant invitation stay within budget?

Yes. Put the finish where it shows, on your names or a crest, and keep the rest simple. Because we print in-house at trade prices, foil and seals cost less than you might expect.

Can an elegant invitation stay within budget?

Do you design black-tie invitations?

Yes. Black or charcoal stock with gold or white foil, a lined envelope and a formal layout. Tell us the dress code and we design to it.
