✅ Pre-booking Checklist

• Fix your guest count before approaching vendors to get accurate per-unit pricing
• Set a clear stationery budget as a percentage of your total wedding spend (typically 2–5%)
• Confirm your wedding date and work backwards to establish a design approval deadline
• Gather all text — names, dates, venue addresses, timings — in both languages before briefing the designer
• Request a physical printed sample of your chosen paper and printing technique before bulk approval
• Check that your chosen vendor has handled bilingual or multi-script layouts if required
• Clarify packaging and courier arrangements, especially for guests outside Maharashtra
• Verify whether digital and physical designs will share consistent typography and colour across formats

🎯 Selection Criteria

• Portfolio quality and relevance to your specific wedding style and cultural tradition
• Vendor turnaround time relative to your wedding date — avoid vendors who cannot commit to a written deadline
• Ability to produce physical samples before bulk printing begins
• Experience with the specific print technique you want — foil, letterpress, or laser cutting require specialist equipment
• Transparent, itemised pricing covering design fee, printing, packaging, and delivery separately
• Client reviews specifically mentioning accuracy of colours and text in final printed output

💰 Cost / Quality Factors

• Paper stock weight and texture — heavier stock (300 gsm+) signals quality and holds print better
• Print technique complexity — foil and letterpress add significant cost over standard digital print
• Number of inserts in the suite — each additional card (RSVP, mehndi, accommodation) increases cost proportionally
• Quantity — larger orders reduce per-unit cost but require more upfront investment
• Custom illustration or calligraphy fees — bespoke artwork adds ₹3,000–₹15,000 to the design cost
• Packaging and courier — velvet boxes, rigid mailers, and tracked shipping add ₹20–₹80 per unit to overall spend

⚠️ Common Mistakes to Avoid

• Approving a digital mockup without reviewing a physical printed sample — colours shift significantly between screen and paper
• Leaving insufficient lead time — ordering custom cards less than 4 weeks before the wedding risks delays
• Ignoring text proofing — a spelling error in a name or venue address discovered post-print is costly to correct
• Underestimating quantity — always order 10–15% more than your guest count to account for late additions and keepsakes
• Choosing a vendor purely on lowest price without checking if they can handle your chosen print technique
• Neglecting to confirm courier packaging standards for fragile foil or acrylic cards, leading to damaged deliveries
