When

| |
I don't know if I'm having a boy or a girl -- how should I choose
a design? |
| |
|
| ANSWERS |
| Do
you have a catalog? |
| |
Because
my invitations are custom-created for each couple, it is not feasible
for me to create a printed catalog. Click here if you are interested
in ordering samples.
|
|
| Do
you work with out-of-state customers? |
|
YES!
Artiga has recently filled orders for customers as far away as
New York and Hawaii! If you are interested in seeing more of my
work, samples can be ordered, or I can create a custom
sample for you based on your themes, colors, and preferences.
Most ordering communication can be done using email (which is
free and fast)! When an order is complete, your invitations or
announcements will be mailed to you via certified delivery. Out-of-state
customers will be charged for shipping.
|
| When
should I order my wedding invitations? |
|
Generally,
it is best to look into ordering invitations at least six months
before the wedding. Artiga needs orders placed at least 4-6 weeks
before your planned mailing date, because some materials need
to be ordered well in advance.
|
| How
many wedding invitations should I order? |
|
Make
sure to order enough for each party on your guest list, plus a
few extras for you and your family members to keep. Artiga Design
charges a $75 re-print fee for adding extra invitations to the
order once it has been placed and is in process.
|
| Can
I proofread my invitations or announcements before they are printed?
|
|
Yes.
Within 1-2 weeks of placing your order, I will create a proof
for each invitation or announcement piece, which I will email
to you as a .pdf file. You will have the chance to read them over
for any final edits or changes. I will not print them until I
get the final word from you.
|
| When
should I mail my wedding invitations? |
|
Generally,
the mailing date is 6 weeks before the wedding. However, if you
are getting married during a holiday weekend or have many out-of-town
guests, you should send them out 8 weeks prior.
|
| What
is an appropriate reply date for my guests? |
| |
Reply
dates are typically 2-3 weeks before the wedding. Sometimes caterers
require an accurate guest count at this time.
|
|
Where
can I find invitation wording and etiquette suggestions?

unique wording ideas and specific etiquette questions for different
situations, the best resource is:

|
| When
should I order birth announcements? |
|
Birth
announcements can be ordered up to 2 months before your due date.
Most announcements require some work that can be done before the
baby is born. Have a family member call or email me the birth details,
and I can have them ready shortly after your baby is born.
|
| I
don't know if I'm having a boy or a girl -- how should I choose
a design? |
|
Some
mothers choose a design that could work for either sex. Others choose
two designs -- one for a boy and one for a girl. In that case, have
a family memeber call or email me the birth details, and I can have
them ready 2 weeks after your baby is born.
