How far in advance should I reach out about custom stationery?
​We encourage you to reach out about custom stationery as soon as you consider it. Most clients book 9–12 months in advance to allow ample time for design and production. Our design calendar fills up quickly, so confirming your spot early ensures we can dedicate the necessary time to bring your vision to life. ​
Do you take rush orders for custom stationery?
We understand that sometimes timelines can be tight, and while we typically do not offer rush services for custom wedding stationery due to the intricate nature of the design and production process, we may consider expedited projects if our design calendar permits. Rushing can compromise the creative process, increasing the likelihood of errors, overlooked details, or production issues. Please note that rush orders are subject to an additional fee of 25–30% to accommodate the accelerated timeline and ensure the highest quality. We encourage you to contact us as soon as possible to discuss your specific needs and determine if we can accommodate your request.​
Can I use someone else for invitations and only order illustrations/artwork from you?
APD specializes in crafting comprehensive wedding invitation suites that encapsulate the essence of your special day. This commitment allows us to dedicate our full attention to clients seeking a complete and cohesive stationery experience. While we appreciate all inquiries, we can only accommodate smaller projects when our schedule permits. In such cases, we require full transparency regarding the intended use of our designs to ensure they are showcased appropriately. Upholding the integrity and quality of our artwork is paramount, as we strive to present each piece in its most refined and intended form.​
Are you able to send samples to us?
We happily provide our clients samples that allow them to explore various print techniques, paper qualities, and design layouts firsthand. By reviewing these samples, they can confidently choose the materials and designs that best reflect their style and set the desired tone for their special day.
What about day-of stationery?
Once we've crafted your custom wedding invitation suite, we ensure dedicated time in our schedule to create your day-of stationery. Utilizing the established design elements from your invitations, we can effortlessly extend the aesthetic to items such as programs, menus, and place cards, ensuring a harmonious look throughout your celebration.
