Stationery is carefully packaged and delivered directly to you. I’ll also include detailed instructions for assembly, postage, and mailing. And, of course, you can always shoot me an email if you need any additional assistance!
Optionally, you may choose to add assembly and/or postage + mailing services. Those services can be added here.
-
We love working with clients throughout their wedding stationery experience, so we can create a cohesive experience for your big day. For this reason, day-of stationery is reserved exclusively for those who have ordered wedding invitations from us.
After we’ve completed your invitation suite, we’ll send you a private link to shop day-of stationery when it’s time to book.
-
Absolutely! Our calendar is booked on a first-come, first-serve basis, so if you want to reserve your spot in advance then you can definitely book before you have all details finalized. The only thing I’ll need from you is your confirmed event date. That way, we can work backwards from there to make sure you receive everything on time.
Please keep in mind the proofing process does not begin until we have all information from you, so this can delay the timeline. If you need stationery in hand soon (within 6 weeks from the date of purchase), we recommend having all information ready at the time of booking.
-
Count by number of households, not by the number of guests invited.
Invitations are available in increments of 25, with a minimum of 50 prints.
So, if you only need 85 suites, we recommend ordering up to 100. This will give you extras in case additional guests are added or anything gets lost in the mail. Plus, it gives you extras to have photographed on your big day (we recommend bringing 2-3 copies for your photographer) and a few to have as keepsakes for yourself.
-
After you place an order, we’ll email you a form within one business day to collect invitation wording and details.
Once we, receive wording and guest addresses from you, you’ll receive a proof via email within 3 business days (or in 4 weeks if you booked a custom venue illustration).
After you receive your first round of proofs, we’ll work one-on-one together to make sure everything is perfect prior to printing.
-
Yes! All wording is fully personalized to your liking with your wedding information and details. However, the layout of text remains the same to protect the integrity of the original design. Include custom wording in the notes at checkout, and I'll take care of the rest!
-
Collections from Betty Lu Paperie are semi-custom. We do not offer fully custom stationery designs.
This means that the design remains relatively the same as seen on the website, but personalized with your wedding details and designed to match your wedding aesthetic.
Tips for Booking Wedding Invitations
We’re happy to guide you carefully through each step of the process. Here are some of our top tips for ordering…
order extrasIt's always better to order extra invitations to account for any last-minute additions or returned mail. Having a few extra invitations on hand will save you from unnecessary stress.
prepare for day-of paperSet your RSVP date at least four weeks in advance of your event. (Or sooner for a destination wedding!) This allows you time to make wedding day plans, like your seating chart.
book earlyStarting the ordering process early allows for a more relaxed and enjoyable experience. Book stationery at least 1-2 months before you need it in hand.
