- What’s a Couture Invitation?
Couture Invitations utilize the utmost unique materials. They can be fabric-bounded invitations, menu holders, or stationery boxes. Please inquire for more information.
- How much does it cost?
Designful! is a custom design studio. Prices can vary depending on what things you order. If you desire a specific price on any of the samples in the Gallery, please feel free to ask/discuss your certain requirements.
- I am on a budget but would really love to work with you, is this possible?
Yes. There are certain things we can do to bring the costs down, such as the client assembling their own pieces. Also, by selecting a pre-existing design in our gallery, costs are lower as compared to something completely custom.
- When do we place an order?
An ideal timeframe for custom designs is about 6 months before the date of the event.
- Do you have a store?
Designful! does not have a storefront.
- Are your consultations free?
Yes. The first and second consultations are free. The first meeting is a “getting to know you” session. The second meetings are for order submissions and detail confirmations. Subsequent meetings thereafter, there will be a charge of $50 per meeting. If an order is placed, the consultation fees will be credited.
- I see some invitations inside a box, what is this?
These are couture invitations housed inside stationery boxes. As some prefer to collect keepsakes from the event, these boxes can serve as your “treasure chest” to hold anything from pictures to notes from your guests.
- How many invitations should I order?
The general rule of thumb is to order based on the number of families, then the number of single attendees. Add an extra 10 for last minute inclusions.
- What’s a fabric enclosure? Can you do custom designs?
Think of your usual invitations held in a cardstock folder – except now it’s a bound cover with fabric. And YES, any type of designs can be made – you aren’t just limited to a folder!
- Do you sell other stuff?
Yes. Standalone papers, customized rhinestones, customized embossed papers are just some of the few things.
