Wedding Ordering Information ~
Lead Time
We recommend a minimum 5 month lead time (before your wedding) to start researching your wedding stationery. This will give you time to have samples and/or quotes made so that you can make an informed decision.
Quotes
Quotes are prepared free of charge to your specifications. They are itemised and are fully flexible so you can add or reduce quantities or items throughout the ordering process. If your items and quantities increase/decrease the assembly/production fee
will alter to reflect your changes.
Deposit
If you are interested in ordering your wedding stationery with Nomie Boutique Stationery we ask that you reserve your booking by paying a deposit. This will be 25% of your quoted price. This deposit will secure your order and you will then be placed in the Booking Schedule. Generally orders are booked in at least 12 weeks prior to your wedding date and normally processed within 3 weeks.
If you require your invitations to be sent out earlier than 12 weeks prior to your wedding please advise Naomi in advance and your booking date will be brought forward.
Once your deposit has been made you will then be emailed a Booking Confirmation Receipt, guest list template and further details on what will be required on the date of your booking.
Ordering Process
On the date your booking is made you will be required to email through your guest list and wording. Please make sure this is ready to email through to Naomi in order for your stationery to be processed within the time allocated.
Proofs: Before printing commences you will be emailed a full set of mock proofs to approve. We require written approval prior to printing.
Stage 1: All items that are to be sent to guests incl. invitations, envelopes, rsvp postcard etc. are completed for you to send out 8 weeks prior to your wedding. All stationery will be collated but envelopes will be left open for you to double check printing and add any additional items you may have (ie. map).
Stage 2 : All remaining items for the wedding day incl. order of service, place cards, seating charts etc. are completed 2-3 weeks prior to your wedding.
Stage 3 : If you have requested thank you cards these will be processed after your honeymoon as you may receive additional unexpected gifts from family and friends.
Order of Service Booklets
Order of Service Covers are available for each design. The inside pages are also available but we do not provide an Order of Service assembly service. Naomi can create the artwork for the inside pages to match your stationery and will provide you with a final set of pdf files from which you can print your booklets in the correct page sequence. You can then assemble the booklets yourselves.
As this can be a fairly time consuming project, we suggest that before your RSVP's are returned you may want to think about getting your Order of Service inside pages ready. Your priest/celebrant will be able to provide you with a format to follow in the form of a word document. Then all you need to do is insert your bridal party details, names and special people participating in readings and your chosen music etc. We also have Order of Service Inside Page templates and can provide them for you on request.
We kindly request that when you email your Order of Service wording that it be the final version (which has been approved by your priest/celebrant already) so that there are no substantial changes to be made as this can be very time consuming. Once you have supplied the final wording Naomi will then create the inside pages matching your stationery. You will be emailed a pdf for approval. Once approved Naomi will then set up the final printable pdf files in the correct order so that when they are printed, will fold together in the correct page sequence.
The assembly of the Order of Service Booklets is a great activity to do with a group of close friends or family. The booklets can be easily bound with a thin 3mm ribbon and tied in a knot or bow at the bottom fold, or stapled if you wish. (You will need aprox. 62cm of ribbon per booklet if tied in a knot). You can also purchase ribbon from Naomi if you wish available at very affordable prices.
