The Process

Your wedding invitations are important as they truly set the tone to what your guests expect on your big day. They also allow you to show some of your own personality and style and are a gorgeous keepsake to hold onto.

We completely understand that planning your wedding is one of the most stressful things you can do so we have combined a selection of our most popular designs to form our Semi-Custom range. What this means for you is that the hard work has already been done! All you have to do is pick your favourite design and we will do the rest.

If at any point you have questions, please feel free to reach out via email info@theivorystudio.com.au

STEP 1 - Choose your design

Browse our Semi-Custom range and decide on the perfect invitation for you. Be sure to consider your reception styling, colours and overall vibe. Need some guidance? Send us an email, we'll be happy to help!

Once you've decided on a design, we highly recommend you compile a list of people you'd like to invite which will provide some guidance into the quantity you'll need need to order. We suggest you order at least 10-20 spare invitations as even the best of us forget a family or two in this process. Set-up costs for foil, letterpress and acrylic are quite high, so having to re-order invitations at a later stage will prove to be quite expensive. It's always nice to keep an invitation for yourself and your partner to include in the morning photography session (if having one).

STEP 2 - Place your order

Before placing your order, it's important to remember that freight is not included in the total cost and will be invoiced once the order has been put through. Location and overall invitation weight affect the price significantly which is why we do it this way. We also offer the option of picking up from our Sydney, Australia studio free of charge.

If you have any additional notes for us, please add these in the "Order Notes" section at Checkout.

STEP 3 - We will be in touch!

When you've made your order, we will be in touch with a wording template for you to fill out as well as some extra details. This is where we start the magic!

Once we hear back from you, we'll work on the design and send you the first draft within 3-5 working days. This digital proof will be based on the information you send through. You then have 2 additional rounds of text changes - please keep in mind, design and layout cannot be changed. If you've exhausted your 2 revisions, you will be invoiced $70 per proof. The sooner we receive your responses, the sooner we can make the changes for you.

STEP 4 - Production

You've approved the final design via email - this is the exciting part where we send our design off to our trusted printeries. At this stage, if there are any outstanding invoices, they will need to be finalised prior to print. From final approval, please allow approximately 3-4 weeks for your invitations to be ready, plus shipping.

STEP 5 - The Reveal

Once your order has reached us, we will notify you and then proceed to either organise a time for you to pick the goodies up or post it out to you (at an additional cost). We can't wait to hear what you think!
