Questions we hear

Hands with mehndi holding a burgundy pocketfold Indian wedding card with a gold monogram seal

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

Barbara and Wade

How many Indian wedding cards should we order?

Count households rather than guests, because a family at one address needs one card for each event it is asked to. Then add extras for keepsakes, late additions and your own records. Guest lists often run by household and extended family, so give us yours and we will count it with you. We quote any quantity, large or small.

What do you write on an Indian wedding invitation?

Usually the names of the hosting families and the couple, then each event with its date, time and venue, and a line of welcome. Many families add an invocation at the top and set wording in their own language. We lay it out with your families, and you approve a proof before printing.

What do you write on an Indian wedding invitation?

How do I invite guests to each function?

Use one main invitation for everyone and a separate insert for each event, so guests see only the days they are asked to. A mehndi card can go to close family and friends, and the reception card to the full list. We design the whole set to match.

How do I invite guests to each function?

Can you post cards to India, Sri Lanka or overseas?

Yes. Post cards to guests overseas 12 or more weeks before the wedding, and within Australia 8 to 10 weeks before. We confirm timing and postage with your quote, so tell us early how many relatives live abroad and we will plan the sending order with you.

Can you post cards to India, Sri Lanka or overseas?

Shall we design yours?

Designed and printed at our studio in Melbourne’s south-east (multiple locations), posted to your families.
