How to get custom digital invitations
A practical checklist so your brief is useful on the first message — not after three rounds of guessing.
To get custom digital invitations or e-invites, message the studio with your preferred date, location, guest scale, and the pieces you need (save-the-date, full suite, engagement announcement, or day-of). Designer Invite replies with availability, then moves through brief → editorial direction → focused revisions → final screen-ready files. Most projects take two to four weeks once details are complete.
What to include in your first message
- Couple or host names as they should appear
- Event date (or top two options) and primary city or venue
- Approximate guest count
- Pieces needed: save-the-date, invitation, details card, day-of, or engagement invite
- Whether you need matching pieces for sangeet, mehendi, cocktail, or reception
- RSVP method you plan to use
- Any must-include lines (parents, cultural wording, dress code)
- Two or three references that feel like your tone — not a folder of every aesthetic
What happens after you reach out
If dates align, you receive confirmation and a structured brief. Next comes an editorial direction for type and layout. After you approve direction, craft and revisions begin. The full sequence is outlined on the process page.
How long does a custom digital invitation take?
Two to four weeks is typical when wedding details are mostly settled and feedback is prompt. Incomplete venue names, undecided wording, or slow replies extend the timeline more than design complexity alone.
How many revisions should you expect?
Focused revisions — correcting details and refining hierarchy — keep the piece coherent. Unlimited redesigns usually mean the brief was unclear. Lock tone early so craft stays sharp.
Where to start with Designer Invite
Preview tone across six sample styles (chapter storytelling, newspaper editorial, wedding film, interactive envelope, living mandir, or sealed envelope film), then send a short brief to @designerinviteco. For service scope, see digital wedding invitations and engagement invitations.
- Do I need final venue details before starting?
- You need enough accuracy for the invitation to be trustworthy. Placeholder text creates rework; confirmed names and addresses speed delivery.
- Can you match our wedding website?
- Share the site URL and any brand fonts or colors already chosen. We align tone where it strengthens the suite — without forcing a template look.
