Yes! You can order a pre-printed sample of any of our collection designs right here in our shop. We do not offer customized samples before you place an order, but once your order is underway, you will see a detailed PDF proof of your design and you may choose to order a printed press proof before we print your invitations.

Wedding invitation costs are highly variable and dependent on a number of factors, such as the quantity of invitations, the number of insert cards, production methods and embellishments. See our Pricing Details page for more information.

Yes. Solid colors, type colors and background colors can be customized at no additional cost. See swatches provided in each invitation listing for reference. Artwork colors can also be customized; for some designs, this requires an additional cost.

For font style changes within our existing collection, we can mock up your selected invitation design with additional typography styles for a semi-custom design fee. Email hello@finedaypress.com for details.

We match the colors shown on our site as closely as possible. However, both monitor color and press inks are variable and we cannot guarantee an exact match. Colors may shift on press and can be more noticeable with large areas of color, as in printed background colors. You can also order a sample of any design first to see it in person, or we can provide a printed press proof of your invitation for a fee.

Our standard collection of invitations are produced on a professional, large-format high-quality digital printing press. We also offer white ink printing, letterpress printing, foil stamping, edge painting and more.

Please allow 7 business days for printing & finishing. For specialty printing, such as letterpress or foil-stamping, please allow 3 weeks. Some specialty papers and envelopes may take as long as 4 weeks to order. Please order will in advance if you would like specialty papers.

Invitations are printed exactly as they appear on your digital PDF proof. Contact us to order a printed press proof if your design. You can also order a sample of any design first to see it in person.

Yes, but printing a smaller amount is more costly per piece than your initial order will be. We recommend ordering at least five, and up to ten, extra sets with your initial order to cover any last-minute additions and to have a few keepsakes.

The majority of our invitations are printed on a luxe cotton tree-free paper stock. Cotton stock has a matte finish and a beautiful, subtle eggshell texture. We also offer colored paper stocks and handmade papers.

Your invitation cards will arrive unassembled, ready for stuffing and sealing. We can assemble your invitations for an additional fee; please inquire for details. Envelope liners, if ordering, arrive fully assembled into your envelopes; belly bands and wax seals require light assembly.

We do not offer mailing services. Please see our mailing tips here.

For most invitation sets, one first class stamp will be sufficient (and don’t forget to put a stamp on your reply envelopes too!). We recommend taking one complete invitation suite with envelopes to the post office for weighing, especially if you have more than three insert cards or are using a double thick stock. They will tell you exactly how much postage is needed. Be sure to ask for the international postage cost as well if needed. See our full mailing tips here.
