Your suite pieces are inserted into the inner envelope with individual guest names listed on the front. Then, the inner envelope goes into the outer mailing envelope with the guest name and address. Postage is added and the outer envelope is sealed prior to mailing.

Digital printing is a flat printing method that creates a smooth, flat finish of the design on the card so the only texture you feel is the fluffy cotton paper.
Turnaround time for digital printing is 1-2 weeks after final approval
Letterpress printing begins by creating a plate of your design, which is inked with a matte color and then pressed into the paper using antique machines. The finished product is as beautiful as it is luxurious and a popular selection for wedding stationery!
Turnaround time for letterpress printing is 3-4 weeks after final approval
A traditional print method for wedding invitations (and one of my favorites!). Your design is etched into a metal plate and the recesses of the etching are filled with ink so that when pressure is applied to the plate and paper, the result is an embossed - or raised - impression of the design.
Engraving inks can be matte or metallic.
Turnaround time for engraving is 3-4 weeks after final approval
Foil printing uses sheets of opaque foil, a printing plate, and a heating element to press your design into the paper, similar to letterpress. Foil printing allows us to use metallic colors like gold to print your stationery.
Turnaround time for foil printing is 3-4 weeks after final approval
