A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO ORDERING
1. INSPIRE
Let’s get acquainted! We will start with a complimentary consult with our creative director to chat about what moves & inspires you as well as specifics about the scope of the project. Once we understand your needs and vision, we will provide a custom quote and contract for you to sign digitally. The design phase will begin as soon as a 50% deposit is received. We accept payment via Chase Quickpay, Check, Cash or Paypal.
2. DESIGN
Next, we let the creative sparks fly as we design stationery that truly honors your story and style. Premium materials and perfect hues will be curated for your suite and carefully composed with refined typography and paper engineering. As we design your suite, we’ll help guide you through appropriate etiquette and navigate customs and traditions to make sure the wording perfectly captures your sentiments and the design in on-point.
3. MAKE
You’ll get to see a polished digital proof before we send your order off to press to make sure the text and design is on-point. Before we start production, we will also confirm quantities and specifications for print to ensure a smooth production process. As artisans, we believe the hundredth invitation should be treated with the same respect, accuracy and care as the first.
4. SHARE
Hot off the press, you’ll receive a teaser photo of your stationery by email. Final payment for printing and shipping will be due at this time. Azure offers various delivery options and can ship your order to you anywhere in the world via USPS, UPS, FedEx, or another courier of your choice. We also offer a concierge mailing service upon request along with custom designed postage.
