Content Submission
Hey you!
Before you skip to the fun parts and press "order" - you'll want to make sure to give this a quick look-through to make sure you know what to expect during every step of the way. But we get it...you've got places to go, people to see, and Netflix shows to watch. So—here's the TLDR version:
- Please provide us with a valid email address. We promise that we'll only use it to communicate for your order (and send you inspiring emails if you clicked "yes" to join our Insider club, of course!). As soon as your order is placed, we'll promptly send you the content collection form.
- Your order includes 2 design rounds to provide edits and refinements
- Your first design proof arrives 2-3 business days after we've received your content
- After you submit your final approval, your order is sent to production
- Most items ship within 2-3 weeks of submitting your content form. See below for an in-depth glimpse into our production schedule.
- Remember, it's essential to review your items within 14 days of delivery to ensure that everything's in perfect condition. Beyond this timeframe, we can't issue refunds or replacements.
Design, Production, and Shipping Times
Design Phase
- 4-5 Weeks before desired delivery date: Place Order
- 3 Weeks before desired delivery date: Submit completed content form
- Within 2-3 Business Days of completing form: First design proof received (allow 2 business days for revisions)
To ensure a smooth experience, we suggest allowing 4-5 weeks before you require your items. Feel free to place your order ahead of time, and we'll reserve a spot in our design queue for the month of completion.
The design phase depends on your responsiveness and the number of changes. When you place your order, we'll email you a content sheet to fill in with your wording and details. Please complete and submit it at least 3 weeks before your desired delivery date.
After you submit the content sheet, expect to receive your first proof within 2-3 business days. When you provide feedback, allow 2 business days for revised proofs. Your prompt response is important to meet your deadlines. Delays due to late responses are not our responsibility.
Overall, we suggest allowing up to 1 week for the design stage, starting from when we receive your completed content sheet. We'll work closely together to create that perfectly sophisticated aesthetic you've been dreaming of!

Errors
Client Error
Once you approve your designs through our digital proof form, this will act as your final approval of your designs exactly as you see them on screen. Before you finalize your order, give that text on your online preview a thorough review. We recommend getting an extra pair of fresh eyes to help you make sure everything looks great! Here's the deal: We won't be held responsible for client errors—but if you happen to slip up, no worries at all. We'll reprint your order, with a 25% off discount. The discount does not apply to the cost of shipping.
A Modern Wedding Error
Occasionally (and by that, we mean rarely), mistakes happen. If you happen to notice a printing error on your order, we kindly ask you to reach out within 14 days of receiving your order at: hello@amodernwedding.com. Rest assured, we'll gladly reprint the item for you. We want to make things right, so any items that require reprinting due to our mistake will be reprinted and shipped with priority RUSH status at no cost to you.
Returns / Exchanges
At A Modern Wedding, we take pride in crafting products specifically tailored to your vision. Due to the made-to-order custom nature of our items, we are unable to offer returns or exchanges for any personalized items. However, please don't hesitate to reach out to us within 14 days of delivery if you find yourself unhappy with your items. To ensure fairness to all, we regretfully won't be able to offer credits or replacements beyond this timeframe. We genuinely care about your experience and will work with you to find a solution that brings a smile back to your face.
To ensure your complete satisfaction, we highly recommend ordering a sample pack prior to placing your order. This way, you can see firsthand if the paper and print colors meet your expectations. Note that colors vary slightly from monitor to real life! Please keep in mind that we won't be able to refund or reprint orders solely based on personal preferences regarding print colors or paper stock. We appreciate your understanding as we strive to deliver the highest quality products tailored to your unique vision.

If your wedding is postponed
