Ordering
All orders that you place with Paperchain Wedding Stationery will be subject to acceptance in accordance with these terms and conditions. Any award of gift vouchers are subject to £100 minimum order, a minimum order value of £50 applies.
Supply of information
Please ensure that information supplied for stationery is in an electronic usable format and accurate to the best of your knowledge, to minimise amendment and reproofing. Information for items needed on the day (Order of Service, Menus, Place Name Cards, Table Plans, Table names/numbers) must be signed off a minimum of 3 weeks before the event to guarantee the delivery of the items in time for the event.
Proofs
Proofs are sent via PDF on email unless specifically requested otherwise, using the wording and layout agreed in your order – please note that colour on screen can differ from printed colour and although colours are standardised you should try to see hard samples using the exact colour you require before signing the stationery off for print. Any changes required to the wording must be emailed or phoned through and the proof rechecked and signed off. The first two proofs per item are free, if subsequent changes are made then any additional proofs are charged at £4.99 each.
Signing off
Paperchain requires that, once happy with the proofs, you email to confirm that you are happy with all elements of the proof from start to finish and are happy for the entire job to be printed. Printing can occur as quickly as the same day as sign off, so any subsequent corrections, not mentioned before sign off will result in the additional/amended invitations be charged on top of the original order.
