Bespoke Wedding Invitation Suites
Wedding stationery is a very special and important part of wedding planning, and it's the first impression you are sending your guests of what's to come. Whether you are looking for a modern display that still feels personal or a traditional but truly unique design, it's a beautiful and fun way to display your love and personal style. Wedding stationery becomes bespoke when it transcends the realm of mass-produced templates and begins to incorporate these special details.
Chance Zacheis Designs incorporates a high level of personalisation, handcrafted details, and one-of-a-kind designs that capture the essence of your love story and the aesthetic you envisioned for your wedding day. The bespoke design work is complimented perfectly with the highest quality materials available for printing and embellishing. Every element of the stationery suite, from typography to custom wax seal stamps, is designed to align with your preferences and wedding theme. Nothing is out of the question for bespoke stationery!
Handcrafted Details
Bespoke details often include hand-illustrated depictions of wedding venues and significant items to the couple such as flowers and foliage, places, pets, and personal treasures. Other embellishments of fine ribbon, custom wax seals, and natural elements, are engineered into the final designs in unexpected ways that add to the uniqueness of each piece.
Printing Finishes
You have the highest quality printing methods at your disposal including foil stamping (available in over 20 colours), letterpress, embossing and debossing, spot UV, Scodix, epoxy, and laser cutting and marking. Unique combinations can be incorporated to produce a truly bespoke suite of wedding stationery.
Premium Paper
Top-quality card stock is available in several textures, colours, and weights. Linen, Gloss, Vellum, Feltmark, and various cotton blends to name a few. Enhance your bespoke design with handmade options of raw-edge cotton and more.
Bespoke Design Process
Design & Refine
At this stage, a full sketch of each stationery item will be created for you to approve before turning them into realistic digital proofs. Two revisions will be included in the process. Additional revisions will be priced according to changes requested. This is your opportunity to make any last-minute alterations and requests before giving your final approval.
Print, Assemble, & Deliver
Your personalized wedding invitation suite is ready to be sent to print! Throughout the process, we'll carefully add the final embellishments that you've chosen such as ribbons, wax seals, etc. You'll be involved at every stage with regular progress photos and communication. Once the final payment is made, we'll ensure the finished pieces are safely packed and promptly shipped to your doorstep.
Concept Development
Based on your preferences and requirements, Chance will craft a proposal that includes two design concepts for you to choose from.
When you have had time to review the design proposal, a call will be arranged to fine-tune the details. When you are fully satisfied with the design plan, you will be sent a contract and a deposit invoice.
Once your contract is signed and your deposit has been made, you will have access to your client portal on our website where you can track the progress of your project and view all of the relevant documents and design files.
Design Consultation
This is your opportunity to communicate your vision, share your inspiration, and outline your basic requirements and general preferences for your project.
Together, we will make a list of all items you want to include in your stationery suite (e.g., invitations, RSVP cards, save-the-date cards, menus, programs, thank-you cards, etc.), as well as the level of customisation you are looking for (e.g., custom illustrations, specific themes or colour palettes, special printing techniques, etc.).
Chance offers video consultations as well as in-person meetings for clients based in London, UK. Consultations are always free and always encouraged, no matter what stage of planning you are in.
