How it works

Four weeks, four steps. You see two directions, choose one, and watch it grow into every card.

  1. Week 1

    Brief

    One conversation, then a written brief: the events, the places, the families, the colours you love and the ones you don't. The advance is paid and the clock starts.

  2. Week 2

    Two routes

    Two concept directions for the invitation, drawn, not described. You pick one; the other is retired.

  3. Week 3

    The suite

    The chosen route grows into every piece: ceremony cards, envelope, seal, film. Two rounds of revisions are included.

  4. Week 4

    Handover

    Print-ready files with specifications for your printer, WhatsApp-ready versions for sending, and the film. Printing managed if you'd like.
