How do I order?

Each product features drop-down menus on its page. Simply select the number you require and any optional extras and 'add to basket'.

What's the best way to contact you about my order?

Please contact me via the platform you have purchased from. If you have bought via this website, please always contact me via the emails you receive from this website. If you have purchased via Etsy, please contact me via Etsy. Contacting me on an alternate platform, e.g. via Etsy regarding a website order, makes orders very hard to track and can make the process take longer.

Do I have to have the same number of each product?

No! Please feel free to create a package to suit your needs and budget. For example, ordering 50 wedding invitations, but only want RSVP cards for 25, no problem.

How do I send my information?

Once you have placed your order with us, an email will be sent to you requesting you complete an online form providing the information we need to begin work.

In rare instances the automatic email will be sent to your junk folder, so if you don't receive it straight away it's worth checking there.

Just in case, here is a link to the information request page, (Please only complete the forms if you have placed an order).

What are your lead times?

Please scroll to the bottom of the home page to checkout current lead times for each product.

Can I have more than one version?

If you require different versions of your wedding invitations, please add these to your basket separately.

For example, you may require 20 x invites with accommodation paid for and 40 without - here you would add 20 to your basket and then 40 to your basket.

Minimum orders apply.

I need my wedding invitations in a language other than English – is this possible?

Yes, you can! We have recently created wedding invites in Mandarin, Arabic, Polish and Lithuanian. All we ask is that you proof read extremely carefully, as to our shame we only speak English (with a sprinkle of GSCE French).

If you require some of your wedding invitations in English and some in an alternate language, please add to basket separately.

Do you offer 'bundle' discounts, seasonal sales, Black Friday & Cyber Week deals?

No.

I pride myself on creating high quality hand made and original products at the best prices I can offer all year round. Prices are based on a sliding scale, meaning the higher the volume ordered the lower the unit price - with discounts built in. As a small independent business I am not able to offer additional discounts on top of this.

Prices are set fairly to cover card, ink, rent, gas, electric, business rates, packaging to name a few and also the time it takes to design and hand make the products. As a small business it's simply not possible to offer cheap products as larger companies can - or to enter into 'Black Friday' type sales.

There are a range of options available so that customers can choose products that suit their needs and budget.

What should I check on the proofs?

It’s essential that you check your proofs very carefully considering the following:

Dates, names, addresses, email and telephone numbers are correct where applicable.
Is the address spelt out in full?
3. Are the spelling and punctuation correct?
4. Are the colours correct?

Upon final approval of your personalised order, Julia Eastwood cannot accept returns due to any and all errors (such as misspelt words etc.) or requested changes to layout and colour. By approving your final proof, you accept responsibility for the information, layout, colours and size as shown. If errors are discovered after proof approval, we will be required to charge for reprints.

Can I see a printed proof of my invitations before you send them to print?

If you would prefer to be 100% sure that you are happy with your design before printing the whole order, you can order a printed proof at a cost of £25.00. Printed proofs add around 7 working days to the process.
Metallic Foil printed proofs can be supplied at a cost of £55.00 and add around 10 working days to the process. Printed proofs of ‘on the day’ stationery are not currently available.

Will the colours be exactly the same as on my screen?

We make every effort to calibrate our screens with our in house printing press and colours will be reproduced as closely as possible to the original design whilst allowing for a slight difference in on screen colours (RGB) and print colours (CMYK). It is important to note that all computer and mobile screens are calibrated differently, and there can be minor
differences between how colours view on home computers and mobile
phones.

I have received the proof but would like to make some changes. What should I do?

Please don’t ever worry about needing to make amendments, that’s what the proofing process is all about…we would much rather amend and your invitations be perfect. Simply reply to the email sent with your proof detailing the amends, bullet pointed if possible and all in one email (it’s much easier for us to track this way) and we will return updated proofs to you within the specified lead times.

I have approved my proof. How long will it take to receive my order?

Please allow 10 working days (excludes weekends and public holidays) from approval to dispatch. Plus delivery transit time.

I like one of your wedding stationery collections, but the colour scheme doesn’t match my wedding theme! Can the colours be changed?

All wording can be changed to suit your needs, but changes to the illustrations are not possible.

I would like a bespoke invitation suite. Is this something you can offer?

Unfortunately due to the volume of orders placed and time constraints we no longer offer a bespoke service.

Can I change the fonts?

I am happy to amend a font if you have a specific typeface in mind.

I’ve made a mistake with my order. What should I do?

If you have made a mistake when ordering, please contact us as soon as possible.

I’ve changed my mind. Can I cancel my order?

You can cancel an order within 24 hours of ordering. After this time, we cannot cancel any orders as the design of your products will have begun.

Once items have been printed, what is your returns policy?

We cannot accept returns as our products are personalised for you.
If you are unhappy with your order for any reason please contact us and we will aim to remedy as soon as possible.
