Fully Custom Invitations
You’ve just said “YES” to the person you’ve waited your whooole, long life to love
(oh, and, by the way – congrats!)
So you’re definitely not about to start settling for the lackluster invites you’ve seen in all the bridal magazines piled on your nightstand.
You want MORE from your wedding invitations than what the rigidness of most big box brand experiences can offer you, especially when it comes to making those tiny tweaks + revisions that make ALL the difference.
Calling all lovebirds-
it’s time for wedding invitations that spark joy, not more wedding-planning fatigue.
I believe every couple deserves to feel EXCITED while planning their wedding. So if the thought of handing your wedding invites to a pro who “gets you” makes you want to breathe a (much-needed) sigh of relief, I’m right there with you.
Because at Julia Kay Design, I don’t treat designing your wedding invitations as ticking another task off your wedding checklist. I treat it like what it should be – an experience that ends with a cherished keepsake celebrating your once-in-a-lifetime kind of love. No cookie-cutter designs. No rushed decisions. No settling for anything less than perfect wedding invitations.
Let’s skip the late-night panic attacks and head straight for the joy – a simplified, totally stress-free process for creating the custom wedding invitations you’ve been waiting for.

What other couples have said:
Request a custom quote
Complete this inquiry form to tell me more about your budget, wedding details, and overall vision for your invitations. Within 72 hours, you’ll receive an email from me with your custom proposal & quote.
Secure your start date
If we’re a fit, you can officially secure your spot on my calendar by completing your proposal, contract, and the 50% retainer fee. Once you’re booked, I’ll be in touch via email with your project start date. In the meantime, you’ll also receive an in-depth questionnaire asking you for ALL the deets about your big day.
Let's get designing
Here’s where it gets FUN. Using your wedding details & inspo, I’ll create an initial sketch of your invitation suite, which I’ll need your approval on before I start the digital designs. Once we confirm that we’re A-okay, I’ll digitalize every piece of the invitation suite and send them to you for feedback.
I try to get as close to your vision as possible, but don’t sweat if it’s not totally perfect on the first round – we’ll go back & forth with feedback and revisions until your invitation suite is exactly how you want it.
Printing & Shipping
When you’re confident that we’ve nailed the design, I’ll prep your files & send them to print after you complete your invoice balance. This stage is MY favorite part – printing envelopes and cutting envelope liners to bring your vision to life.
Once production is complete & I’ve shipped your invitations to you unassembled, it’s time to gather your besties for an envelope-stuffing party! You’ll receive detailed instructions from me on how to assemble them, the postage amount you’ll need, and when they need to be in the mail – ya know, ‘cuz I’m here to make your life easier!
Don’t forget to pop a bottle of bubbly once you’re done (or while you’re assembling – just don’t spill any on those precious invites, please!).

Truthfully, it really depends on when your wedding is. If you order invitations less than 3 months before your wedding date, your order will be at the tippy-top of my priority list.
If your wedding is 5+ months away, the processing times may be slower while I prioritize weddings with much tighter timelines. However, I promise that you will always receive your invitations well before you need to send them out to your guests.
If you’re absolutely crunched for time, we can complete the process in about 3-4 weeks from start to finish.

Nope! On each of the product pages, you’ll notice that all you need to know before placing your order is your invitation quantity, whether you’d like a 3-piece or a 5-piece set, and if you want envelope liners.
Once your order is placed, you’ll receive a questionnaire via email to complete with all of your wedding details. If you don't have everything finalized, you can leave those items blank and submit the information you DO have finalized. Alternatively, you can wait to complete the questionnaire until you have absolutely everything finalized.

At the VERY least, you should plan to order your invites 3 months before your wedding. This gives us a month to get everything designed, printed, and shipped to you unassembled to send to your guests. If you need your invitations sooner, please contact me prior to ordering your wedding invitations to ensure I can accommodate your accelerated turnaround time.
If you’re ready to place an order ASAP and your wedding is over 3 months out, I’ll add you to my queue, and your project will begin once you’ve completed your initial questionnaire.

Mistakes totally happen, and I’m happy to print additional invitation sets if you accidentally miscounted. Unfortunately, I’m unable to offer refunds in cases of too many invites, as all sales made within The Invitation Shop are final.
If you’d like to know more about my refund policy, click here to read my shop’s terms of service.

A 3-piece set is the PERFECT option for those opting for an online RSVP and NOT requiring guests to mail back a physical RSVP card. These sets include the main invitation card, a separate details card, and the outer envelope.
5-piece sets are for those who ARE requiring guests to return a physical RSVP card, or those who want a separate card with online RSVP information on it. These sets include the main invitation card, a separate RSVP card, a separate details card, an RSVP envelope, and the outer envelope.
Here's a link to our Handy Visual Guide that will show you exactly what is part of each set!

Absolutely! To change the colors of an invitation suite, you can purchase my artwork color change add-on which can be found in the 'Add-Ons' section of the Invitation Shop.

All invitations are printed on premium 130# smooth white card stock, and the high-quality envelopes feature a subtle antique vellum texture that gives them a certain tactile quality while still being relatively smooth
