Frequently Asked Questions
Helpful answers about our bespoke wedding invitations, day‑of stationery and printing options.
- What wedding stationery do you offer?
We create custom wedding invitations and a full suite of day‑of stationery and signage, including ceremony booklets, welcome signs, seating charts, personalised menus/place cards, table numbers, bar and cocktail signage, wishing well and other event signs, favour tags and stickers.
- How does the enquiry and design process work?
Start by submitting our Enquiry form with your details, items and inspo. We then discuss your vision, help you choose papers and printing techniques, prepare digital proofs for review and refinement, and finally produce and deliver your stationery.
- Which printing methods are available?
We offer modern digital printing as well as premium techniques like letterpress, foiling and embossing. Explore options in our Printing Guide and colour charts, or ask us to recommend the best fit for your style and budget.
- Letterpress vs digital — what’s the difference?
Letterpress creates a luxurious, tactile debossed impression on thick paper and typically involves longer production times and a higher budget. Digital printing delivers crisp, consistent full‑colour results and is versatile and cost‑effective. See our blog guide on letterpress vs digital for a deeper comparison.
- Do you offer sample packs?
Yes. Our sample packs are available for $17.50 and are fully redeemable on invitations purchased. They include a variety of colours and shapes so you can see and feel the difference before you decide.
- Can you match colours?
We have an extensive colour chart across cardstock, inks and signage. Because colours vary across screens, we recommend using our sample pack or viewing our guide to choose with confidence.
- Can you copy a design I found online?
We can’t directly copy another designer’s work due to copyright laws, but we’re happy to take inspiration from your references and create a bespoke design that’s uniquely yours.
- Do you print envelopes and provide finishing touches?
Yes. Popular options include envelope printing as well as wax seals, belly bands, vellum jackets and other accessories that elevate your invitation suite.
- How far in advance should we enquire?
Our bookings fill early (we open bookings well in advance), so the earlier you enquire the better. Lead times vary by technique and season — share your date and we’ll confirm a tailored timeline.
- Do you work with couples outside Melbourne?
Yes. We’re based in Melbourne and regularly work with couples across Australia. We’ll coordinate everything remotely and deliver your finished stationery to you.
- Can I upload inspiration images with my enquiry?
Absolutely — our Enquiry form supports multiple image uploads so you can share examples, mood boards or venue details.
- What’s the best way to get a quote?
Submit the Enquiry form with your items, quantities and any inspo. You can also email enquiries@mhevents.com.au and we’ll guide you through options and pricing.
