WE CAN'T WAIT TO WORK WITH YOU ON BRINGING YOUR WEDDING VISION TO LIFE,
​BUT FIRST LET'S TALK TIMELINES

we absolutely love the opportunity to work on your weddings.  it is seriously one of the highlights of my business!  however, weddings take planning & attention to detail & with that in mind, we like to have ample time to create your goods with ease.  no one likes a rushed process, so please have a look through our recommended timelines for each aspect of your wedding design; save the dates, invitations & day of goods.  

find your wedding months below to learn about our timeframe to work together, as it pertains to your specific month!
​

SAVE THE DATES


​the first step in working with us for some, however a skipped step for others!  let me explain.  if you are not planning for more than 1 year out for your wedding, we do not recommend sending a save the date.

save the dates, in our opinion, are for planning in advance & based on the timeline of when we like to send out invitations, we don't think save the dates are necessary unless you are planning on 1+ year out.

below you will find our recommendations on when to start on your save the dates, if you are opting for this option.  please keep in mind this displays the latest we like to start this aspect of the process, earlier is always encouraged.

typically speaking we like to have about a month to design & print your save the dates.

INVITATIONS


it's ​time to invite your guests!  but where do you start?  and more importantly WHEN do you start?

​invitations can be a lengthy process.  this process varies drastically depending on the printing methods, and accessories you choose to accompany your wedding invitations.  we like to have as much time as possible to bring your stationery vision to life, so we ask for a minimum of 2 months to design & execute your invitations.

we encourage our guests to send their invitations anywhere from 3 - 6 months prior to their wedding date.  in the event you have a popular summer/fall wedding date or are opting out of save the dates, we recommend earlier than later.  each wedding has different circumstances & we will discuss this with you during your consultation.

DAY OF GOODS


your wedding day is approaching.. have you thought about signs, seating charts, stationery & all of the other fun additions kreative can bring to your wedding day?

if you are working with kreative on your save the dates, invitations, or both, we have likely had this discussion already.  in the event we have not had this discussion, we recommend starting on your day of goods anywhere between 2 & 4 months out from your wedding day.  there are a few factors that come into play of how long this will take, depending on what you're looking for specifically, the materials being used to create it, whether or not it needs shipped or will be delivered to you, your planner or the venue ahead of time.  to be on the safe side, we recommend reaching out as soon as you have a solid idea of what you are wanting for your day of.

the time frames recommended below are the latest we can begin on day of stationery, earlier is always better.
