METHOD
how we work
“Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution.”
– William A Foster
Over a decade of experience in the industry has guided the refinement of our methodology. It continues to evolve as we work with new incredible clients, exceptional planners, and vendors. Below, you will find some general details about our offerings, processes, and methods.

Our production partners
Our printing and production is only done with our trusted and highly skilled vendors. We source the highest quality materials and our production partners are spread across the globe in order to provide you with the best possible qualities.
Handmade envelopes
We do not source commercially available envelopes. We design and produce them to order for all our custom stationery pieces to ensure they are the perfect fit, shape, and weight. This allows us to add custom linings, foiling, letterpress, patterns, die cut flaps, and gussets. Even our envelopes are custom designed works of art.
TIME FRAME
The majority of our full-service wedding clients are booked for 10-12 months of design, production, and delivery time. We carefully schedule design and delivery dates for each piece required.
Save the Dates ~ 4 weeks
Invitation Suites ~ 12-16+ weeks
We understand the importance of sending your stationery out as planned, and having your day-of items in hand well before your events. We build additional time into our schedule as a preventative measure to ensure that everything is on time.
DESIGN PROCESS
Our process, while carefully planned and executed, maintains a degree of flexibility. Because client expectations and timelines vary, we find that bending with the curves is essential for a smooth and rewarding process.
FORMAT OPTIONS
Our most popular invitation formats are available with both printing and production pricing:
Pricing does vary dependent on design details – please get in touch to request a customised quote relevant to your specific needs.
INVESTMENT
Investing in fine-art stationery creates a unforgettable experience for our couples and their guests. Our broad range of services allows a client to cater to their budget.
Generally, our invitation suites range from AU$10,000 and upward. Prices largely depend on the amount of artwork / design required, as well as production methods and complexities.
OWNERSHIP
Stationery designs are not permitted for use outside of your printed stationery, favours and ephemera. There are no artwork files included in your deliverables.
If you would like to use the artwork across other parts of your event, please discuss this with us. Exceptions are made on an individual basis.
RUSH FEES
We are more than happy to accommodate rush order requests if our schedule allows. A rush fee is usually applicable if a quicker turn-around or immediate start is necessary.
An additional 30% is added for rush projects.
Cutting Edge
Techniques
We have scoured the globe to find the absolute best print and production extraordinaires. They provide us with the ability to offer unique invitation shapes and formats to our stationery clients, as well as features that are one-of-a-kind.
Flawless
Execution
Creating a narrative that remains consistent throughout the design of your event requires strategy. Our team of artists and designers can take your vision and create beautifully coordinated paper goods, a custom website, and table linens. These pieces will not only build a narrative around your event, but will complement your overall style and aesthetic.
