{the lettering style*}
"Bend it like Bickham", a style which compliments the elegant Bickham script font commonly used to design many a wedding invitations. And more importantly, a style inspired by the work of the eighteenth century master penman himself, George Bickham.
*look for more lettering styles in the drop down options below. Links to the my lettering styles provided below too!
{the turnaround time}
I will need approx. 14 days (starting after I receive the envelopes and guest list and after the samples are approved) to complete an envelope addressing project.
{the initial process}
Once I receive the envelopes, I will work with you to create sample envelopes. We will work together to confirm the color of ink, address layout and your choice of zip-code flourish (my signature mark, not required but highly advised)
{the important people}
Guest lists may be emailed to me in the following formats: word doc, excel, pdf. (Guest lists do not have to be 100% complete; I prefer you email me the addresses you have first and in the mean time you can work on the incomplete addresses and email those to me soon thereafter)
{the EXTREMELY IMPORTANT thing to do when ordering your invitations}
If possible, PLEASE order 20% extra envelopes. This is really really really important! It saves a lot of time and money in the end. I will inevitably make errors and there is always an add on or an address change if not many!
{pricing per envelope}
$2.50 or $2.95* per outer envelope
$3.50 or $3.95* per outer and inner envelope set
(* metallic ink and white ink are the more expensive options)
{additional fees}
All envelope addressing projects will have an additional one-time set up fee of $20. This fee covers all the preparation time which is often overlooked including custom ink mixing, providing samples, pencil lines for centering if working with darker envelopes, erasing the pencil lines, spraying the envelopes with protective spray if required and so much more.
{THIS IS THE DEPOSIT}
By purchasing, you are paying for a non-refundable deposit which will be deducted from your final custom invoice. You are also reserving your spot in my calligraphy schedule which is exciting and fun for both you and me!
{upon purchasing, you will receive}
After you purchase this deposit, I will email you 2 pdf files with important information including where to send your envelopes, tips for formatting and submitting your guest address list, a simple tips and reminder sheet for wedding invitations and more!
Congratulations to the Bride and Groom!
