Just thought l would tell you a bit about how things work. When you order a wedding invitation sample I can work from a base design or I have found very often a Bride-to-be has their own ideas, l will then work closely with them so l can achieve the specifications they require. From that point of view l think everyone gets a bespoke design at an affordable price.

I will then send out a finished invitation sample with matching envelope. l find this a good idea so you can see the quality of the materials l use, please dont worry at this stage if things are not quite right or you want to alter anything thats not a problem. When things are to your specifications I will expect a deposit of approximately half of the balance, l will then go ahead with the order and a finished invitation will be sent First Class Recorded Delivery along with enough envelopes to complete the whole order. Then when you have contacted me and approved everything l will finish off the order and post them once again First Class Recorded Delivery.

The turn around time will depend on when the wedding is to when you make first contact also how large the Invitation order is. I quote 4 weeks at busy times to avoid unnecessary disappointments but most times its less.

Also stocked is a range of Personalised Accessories this range is a great way to make your day completely unique to you with monogrammed table confetti and coasters, match books and seed sticks plus personalised napkins etc. These will be delivered within approx 3 weeks of ordering.

My favour/place card holders are my own invention as l found it hard to get anything as versatile as these. Many people buy a favour box but still need a place card holder well this serves as the two. The placecard holder/favour boxes can be done for many occasions and a lot of my orders have been for Wedding Anniversaries, special birthdays etc as well as weddings.

Ordering works out the same as the wedding invitations, l send a favour sample, you approve it and l finish off the order, then send it First Class Recorded Delivery. I can get the favour boxes in many different shapes and colours and could never show all the options available so please don't hesitate to contact me wendy@wendysaffordableweddings.co.uk to discuss options. The decoration of the favour boxes is very flexible l will work closely with you and your specifications so it matches the rest of your occasion.

If you want your favour boxes filled please mention it as l love the fact people have their own ideas and l will do my upmost to purchase or make the fillings you require. Please contact me for a quote.

All the Fair trade Albums and guest books l sell are either made from "eco friendly and recyclable material" or are handcrafted by people who where earlier dependent on forests to earn their livelihood. When you buy these products, you contribute in saving forest wildlife for the green earth. The Artisans associated with the products are paid a fair price for their craftsmanship so they can support families, and try not to be dependent of forests again. Also stocked a range of eco friendly petals that will be sent out in a minimum amount of packaging help keep down wastage.

The Photo Albums and guest books are made of 100% handmade paper they have hard padded covers. inside they have quality handmade paper card sheets that photos can be pasted onto and are interleaved with a tissue like paper. They come with a high quality handmade presentation box. The 10" x 8" albums take a 8" x 6" photo inside they come in a variety of colours and patterns including White, Ivory, Pink, Mint and Petal.
