DO I NEED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT?
In order to deliver the high level of service that I'm known for, I want to reserve a time just for you, to have invitation albums available for you. I want to be sure that I can give you the attention you deserve.
HOW LONG IS MY APPOINTMENT?
For your first appointment with me, a 1.5-hour time slot is reserved for you to meet with me.
When your appointment is confirmed, I'll send you a link to an online Wedding Questionnaire that I ask you to complete and submit to me at least two days prior to your appointment. (It’s quick and easy. It’s just a way for me to learn more about you, your wedding and your style so that I can better help you to create an invitation that matches your vision. This will help us get to the fun stuff faster during your appointment!)
WHAT IF I NEED TO CHANGE OR CANCEL MY APPOINTMENT?
Since I only have a limited number of appointments available, and am holding this 1.5-hour time slot just for you, I ask that you please let me know at least 48 hours in advance if you need to reschedule your appointment so that I can free up that time for another client if needed.
If you know sooner that you won’t be able to make your appointment, please let me know then.
WHAT CAN I EXPECT DURING MY APPOINTMENT?
During your appointment, we will go over your vision for your wedding. I spend some time telling you about the various printing methods available for wedding invitations. I'll show you as many samples of invitation designs as you’d like for inspiration and to serve as a starting point.
We’ll also talk about ways that you can customize these designs. I’ll show you as many typestyles, ink colors, motifs, patterns, backers, pocket folds, and envelope liners as you’d like.
I'll answer any and all of your questions about design, pricing, and etiquette. If, for some reason, I don’t know the answer to the question, I will find out promptly.
Some clients fall in love with a line, design their invitation, and place their order during the first appointment. For others, they want to see all of the available options, narrow their choices and come back a second {or third} time to finalize their design. Either way is perfectly fine with me.
After the first appointment, we can accomplish a lot by phone, email and online.
