Once you've locked in your venue and secured your date, it's usually a good time to begin considering your save the dates. We recommend aiming for a window of 8 to 12 months, or even 12 to 18 months for destination weddings. Sending out a physical invitation serves as a wonderful reminder for your guests about your upcoming wedding date, and they can easily display it on their bulletin board or refrigerator as a keepsake!Item description

Aim for a window of about 3 to 6 months prior to your wedding day, and if you're planning a destination wedding, consider extending it to 6 to 12 months. For guests attending destination weddings from afar, it's essential to account for travel and accommodation plans. The details card in your wedding package can serve as a valuable guide, offering insights into optimal hotel options, travel routes to your venue, and any additional information that could enhance their experience.

We 100% recommend opting for physical invitations when it comes to a significant life event like your wedding. Beyond adding a touch of uniqueness to the occasion, a physical invitation offers your guests a glimpse into the style, theme, and colors of the upcoming wedding. Additionally, having a tangible invitation tends to motivate your guests to respond promptly. Unlike a text or an email that might get overlooked, a beautiful invitation placed on your coffee table is a constant reminder. Nevertheless, if you prefer a digital alternative for sending invitations to your guests, we also provide digital options to choose from here.

Yes, all our printing is completely bespoke. We can print any wording of your choice to suit you. See our wording examples page to help you get started.

Once you’ve placed a full order, if you do not upload your files during the order process then send us an email hello@ivyandgold.co.uk with either your wording attached in a word document or typed directly into the reply. Please ensure you’ve checked all your spelling and grammar before sending it to us as we only format the wording, we don’t review all the details.

Please make sure any photos are high quality and not screen shots.

Photos will only be lightened if we deem them to be too dark on the print out (at our discretion).

If you are really unhappy with the photo outcome and it is different to any samples received, we will only refund 50% due to artwork set up. If you have received a sample and we have not printed different, no refund will be issued.

Yes. For orders over 20 (excluding hen & bridesmaid cards) we will send a PDF proof, typically within 48 working hours (excluding weekends and holidays)

By signing off the artwork in our email exchanges, you are:


1) approving all artwork fully (including all spelling, grammar, design and colour choices) any missed spelling or details we cannot take responsibility for after sign off and printing has been done


2) acknowledging our lead times


3) acknowledging our cancellation and refund policy


4) acknowledging delivery methods, times and understand that tracking codes are only given to orders that pay for tracking


5) our right to share our work online and unless told otherwise, we have your permission


6) artwork and production can not be changed once approval has been made.

For orders where we have printed differently to that agreed on email, only the wrongly printed element will be refunded or reprinted and not the whole order. If a wrong print colour has been used, in this instance the full order would be reprinted only. For example the wrong time / date has been printed (differently to that that has been signed off) on the information card, the information card only would be reprinted or refunded. We take zero responsibility for any missed information or wording mistakes on the clients part.

Should any details or wording need to be changed once the artwork has been approved and signed off, we start printing, unfortunately this would incur an additional cost for the element only that needs altering. For example the time / date has changed on the invitation card, we would charge for a reprint of the invite. As we outsource materials, be aware suppliers may change their stock from time to time (in rare circumstances) an over arching colour term may differ slightly from any samples sent out. Check with us if your sample was ordered more than 3 months before placing a large order. Colours will differ slightly from that shown on screen, we cannot be held responsible for colour discrepancies.

For orders where photos are used (except bridesmaid and hen ranges) we will now send across a photo of a print out of the photo before the whole order is printed.
