At Chelsey Huff Design, we know that wedding planning comes with a lot of questions—especially when it comes to stationery and signage. Below you’ll find answers to some of the most common inquiries we receive about our custom invitations, semi-custom suites, and event signage.
At Chelsey Huff Design, every invitation we create is fully custom. From paper and ribbon to artwork and intricate details, each element is thoughtfully selected or designed just for you. Because of this personalized approach, invitation costs can vary significantly. On average, most of our couples invest $5,000 or more in their wedding stationery, which typically includes save-the-dates, invitations, and day-of items.
On a standard timeline, it typically takes about 10-11 weeks from the day you submit your wording to the moment your invitations are in your hands. Sounds like a long time, right? Don’t worry—we’ve built plenty of flexibility into the design and approval process to make everything as stress-free as possible. This ensures you have the time you need to perfect your invitations at your own pace!
Decided to move away from your disco-themed wedding with a silver and blue palette? No problem—it’s your big day, and we’re here to help! We’re happy to accommodate changes in direction, but please note that additional fees may apply for the time spent creating a new design just for you.
Yes, reorders are possible but there’s a catch. It can take an additional 4+ weeks to get them to you, which may be too late to send out extra invitations. To avoid this situation—and to ensure your guests don’t feel like an afterthought—we recommend ordering 10% extra (or at least 10-15 additional invitations). Having extras on hand covers late additions to your guest list, address changes, lost or damaged mail, and other unexpected situations.
Don’t worry! If you spot a mistake after approving your invitation and it’s already in production, let us know right away. If we catch it early enough, we may be able to stop production and correct the error at no extra cost. If it’s too late to stop the process, we can still fix it by having our printers reprint, though an additional fee will apply.
While we’ll provide all the guidance you need to safely send your invitations through the mail, we cannot be held responsible for any issues caused by USPS. If invitations are lost in transit, your extra invitations will be ready and waiting for you to resend!
Absolutely! Most of our invitation clients also choose to work with us for their day-of items (such as programs, menus, escort cards, etc.). We typically schedule a meeting around the 3-4 month mark to discuss your needs and finalize the details.
Of course! What’s a wedding without a few adjustments? We know guest lists shift, priorities change, and budgets can fluctuate. You’re not locked into your proposal until the print date. Once final approval is given and the balance is paid, we can no longer make changes. Until then, feel free to make as many adjustments as needed!
Semi-custom designs are pre-designed suites that we personalize with your names, colors, and event details. It’s a great option for couples who want beautiful, luxury stationery with fewer decisions and a quicker turnaround.
Yes! While layouts and fonts are generally fixed, we can customize colors, wording, and select embellishments to match your vision.
Semi-custom suites typically take 2–4 weeks from proof approval to delivery.
