OUR PROCESS

If you are ready to create the perfect invitation for your event, why not drop us line or phone to arrange a time to come into the studio. We love hearing about your ideas and will find a way to create something unique and very special, based on your event theming, wedding colour scheme or personalities as a couple. Bring your partner or mum—they will love it too with a tour of our studio in Geebung, Brisbane and a demonstration of letterpress in action!

Bring your event ideas, stationery wishlist, pictures from magazines and any examples of styles that you love and may have found on pinterest or instagram. Event planning is a very exciting time and the first consultation with our design team at Yesterday Creative is where the fun really starts!

We do have a pricelist however since every event is so different we often put together a customised quote based on your wishlist. After we have your event details and have discussed a few ideas during our consultation, or upon receiving your initial email or phone enquiry and going through a few simple questions, we will send you a personalised quote via email.

50% deposit is required upon acceptance of your quote and to book your stationery in for production.

You will be working directly with our team of graphic designers and we can be sure to create an invitation that really sets the tone for your event. The best kind of invitation really shows your creative side as a couple and creates anticipation for your guests. With the ability to work across a variety of design styles from vintage, floral, typographic, illustrative and modern we will work with you to create something that you will truly love and keep forever.

If you are not sure what you like browse our collection of stationery and find something that you like, which we can customise with your event details and some added flair to make it your very own. We can help you with wording, overprinting of addresses to envelopes and final invitation assembly to make posting your invitations an easy, stress free process.

Allow up to two weeks for design concepts and final artwork to be completed before it is ready for print. Custom designs or large orders may take a little longer but we will advise you of a more accurate timeline. If you need it quicker, don’t worry, our design team can accommodate even the tightest of deadlines.

Alternatively, if you are handy with Creative Suite or have a friend doing design for you, bring your artwork and we can print it for you! Just let us know and we can give you some guidance on setting up artwork suitable for letterpress.

This is where it all becomes real! Come into the studio on print day and see your stationery being printed. Get hands on and have some fun with Neisha to help mix your own ink and press check to make sure the colour is just perfect, and the detail in your design is beautifully impressed into the paper to your liking.

We allow 3 days for platemaking and up to 7 days for complete production and print finishing, depending on the size of the order. Allow up to 2 weeks where additional services such as lasercutting or edgepainting are required.

Your stationery will be checked for quality to make sure it is perfect and that everything you need to post your invitations will be carefully packed ready for pickup from our Brisbane studio, or delivery to your address. Courier or express post delivery is available at an additional cost and will be quoted additionally depending on your location.

50% Final balance is payable upon completion, before orders are shipped.
