Invitations...How long does it take

for the invitations to come in after they are ordered? I am probably going to order them from a traditional store.

Thanks

I think up to a month depending on what you get-but I know alot of girls have gotten them sooner

Re: Invitations...How long does it take

I JUST came back from a Hallmark and they told me only ready.... I can't believe it myself but .... 4 days from the time you place the order -- I couldn't believe it that I had to ask it if was for raised lettering as well and he said yes. Go figure -- I have time but hopefully that will be the case I hate long drawn out processes.

The majority of the online vendors that sell invites can have them ready and shipped from 5 - 10 days..........

We got our at Party City and were told 14 days and they came in 5 days after we ordered them. I think it depends on where you get them.

We ordered, got the proof and had the final product all within 10 days.

Re: Invitations...How long does it take

We ordered ours in the end of jan/beginning of Feb, and they came in by end of March, but then the caligraphy had to be done which took 2 weeks..................they were sent out like April 11 and the RSVP was like the last week in May, so they had about 5 weeks...it was enough time...

eta- ok, i know why they took so long, they messed something up, or we were back in forth between 2 different monograms, so they did the first monogram, and i didnt like it, so they they had to do the proof over, and thats why it took alittle longer!

Ours took 3 Weeks. My calligrapher should be done with them by Friday. Then I start stuffing them.

Re: Invitations...How long does it take

From the day I approved the proofs it took 10 days. So the whole process was about 3 weeks.
