How can we help?

Yes. You can personalise and preview any design free of charge. You only pay when you order a sample or a full print run.

Choose your design, click 'Personalise this design', and our editor opens with a live preview. Add your names, date, and venue, the design updates as you type. You can step away at any time; your progress saves automatically to your account.

Upload a Word document or plain text file from the editor. Our layout engine automatically flows hymns, readings, prayers, and order-of-events into the booklet pages. You can also type directly into the editor.

Yes, the editor lets you set any table identifier: numbers, names (cities, flowers, song titles, favourite films), or a combination. Each card in your order can have a different name.

Type or paste your guest names directly into the editor, one name per line per table. You can add, remove, or move guests between tables at any time before you order. The layout adjusts automatically.

Type each guest name into the editor. You can order a batch of blank place cards and write names by hand, or order a fully personalised set, one card per name, for a polished printed finish.

Yes, our photo thank you card designs include a dedicated photo panel. Upload your favourite wedding image in the editor and position it exactly how you want it.

Absolutely. Every welcome sign design lets you switch the colour palette and font pairing directly in the editor. Changes apply instantly so you can preview exactly how your sign will look before you order.

The menu editor supports up to six courses, each with a heading, dish options, and a dietary note line. If you need more flexibility, get in touch.

Yes, when you're logged in, every change saves to 'Your designs' within a second or two of you stopping typing. You can come back to it from any device. Guest sessions save to your browser only, so create an account if you want your design to follow you.

Yes, every design ships with a curated set of 2–3 font options that complement the artwork. Open the font picker in the editor sidebar to preview each one. If you want something entirely bespoke, email us after placing the order and we can usually substitute any Google Font or one you have a licence for.

Yes, each design has a selection of accent palettes drawn from the original artwork. Pick one in the editor sidebar; everything (names, dividers, details) recolours live. If none of the presets match your wedding palette, message us with a colour reference and we'll mix a bespoke option.

Yes. Enable the reverse side in the editor and add a QR block linking to your RSVP page, wedding website, or anywhere else. We generate the QR at print resolution automatically.

Thank you cards are printed on 300gsm premium silk board, thick enough to feel substantial in the hand and stand cleanly when tent-folded.

Welcome signs are printed on 300gsm premium silk board, thick, flat, and rigid enough to stand on an easel without curling. The surface gives rich colour and crisp detail for both the design artwork and your personalised text.

Save the dates are printed on 300gsm premium silk board, the same quality as our invitations. Each comes with a 120gsm C6 envelope in your choice of seven colours, included.

Menus are printed on 300gsm silk board, the same premium stock as our invitations. Single-sided, full colour.

Our standard stock is 300gsm Fedrigoni Old Mill Bianco. For photo-heavy thank you cards we may use a 350gsm coated stock to protect the print. If you need a specific alternative (kraft, shimmer, pearlescent), email us before ordering, we can often accommodate bespoke requests.

Printed colours are an approximation of screen colours, screens are backlit, paper isn't. We calibrate our press carefully, but for colour-critical designs we strongly recommend ordering a £5 sample first to see the real result.

Aim to send thank you cards within 4–6 weeks of returning from your honeymoon. Personal, handwritten notes inside a beautifully printed card always mean more than a generic message, use the inside panel to write your note.

The editor gives you a live pixel-accurate preview as you personalise. There's no separate proof stage, what you see in the editor is exactly what prints. You're in full control before you order.

Most couples send save the dates 9–12 months before the wedding, earlier (12–18 months) if many guests will need to book travel or accommodation. They go out before the full invitation so guests can hold the date in their diary.

Place cards are 90 × 55 mm when flat, scored and pre-folded into a tent card that stands at 45 mm tall. They sit neatly in front of each place setting and match the height of most standard wine glasses.

Wedding menus are DL portrait (99 × 210 mm), the same long, tall format you see on a high-end restaurant menu. The shape sits beautifully propped against a glass or candle at each place setting and gives every dish room to breathe.

Table name cards are 154 × 154 mm square cards that display your table name or number. They stand propped on the table, usually in a frame, acrylic holder, or against a centrepiece, and complement your place cards and menus.

Yes, in two ways. The editor preview is pixel-accurate to the final print, and we recommend ordering a £5 personalised sample: a single card printed on the real stock, posted to you, so you can see and feel the result before committing to a full run.

Table plans are printed A1 landscape (841 × 594 mm), the same size as our welcome signs. They're designed to stand on an easel or hang at the entrance to your reception so every guest can find their seat at a glance.
