GENERAL INFORMATION - Please read. Pricing and timelines are listed below

PROOFS/DEPOSITS

• Once all proofs are approved, deposits go toward the final total. If a customer decides not to continue with the order after seeing a proof, the deposit is nonrefundable, and the design is not released.

• A 50% nonrefundable deposit is required for all orders.

• No outside artwork is accepted or will be used in any designs (AI or by other artists).

• Before a proof is given, there will be discussion about inspiration. Inspo photos are encouraged, but will not be directly copied. Proofs are only made after a design is agreed upon.

• 3 digital proofs are included with the deposit. Proof changes include layout switchups, font changes, color changes, and things of this nature. If new paintings/designs are requested after a proof (and inspiration discussion) is given, there will be additional charges starting at $35 for the new artwork time and editing.

• Please expect some minimal color variation from proof to print. Digital proofs will be CLOSE to your final product. If you print anything at your home printer, definitely expect it to be different from your final product.

• Proofs are laid out almost exactly (except for some minimal color variation) to what you will receive. For example, unless otherwise noted, if you see black ink, you will receive black ink.

• Printed proofs have a minimum charge of $10.

SCHEDULING/RUSH ORDERS:

• PARTY INVITATION (and any other print that is not wedding) ORDERS

  • All party invitation orders, must be placed at least 3-4 weeks before the date needed, or a minimum rush fee of $50 will be charged.

  • Standard production for party invitation orders, take a minimum of 3 weeks after all approvals.

  • Rush production for orders with 50 prints or more, is no less than 2 weeks.

• WEDDING ORDERS:

  • Please allow 3 months to meet, plan, design, change, and complete wedding invitations.

  • Less than 3 months timing is considered a rush order, and final proofs and mailing lists in excel must all be submitted one month before the mailing date.

  • A full and correct list in excel is required before any printing is done. Lauren cannot rush the printing process, so if the list is late, the printing will be late.

GENERAL TERMS

• PLEASE NOTE: Layout, color, design or paper inspiration samples are welcomed, but your final product will be something completely original. Lauren does not copy other artists’ work, AI renderings, or other printed materials found online.

• Print and proof colors are guaranteed a CLOSE match, but not always a perfect match.

• No artwork may be used for open-ended printing. Lauren does not provide raw artwork for printing at any time.

• Letterpress: prices change with quantity, email for a quote

• If a typo or mistake is discovered on the printed product, that was not discovered during proofs, and after the client approved the proof, the client is responsible for reprinting at a 50% discount.

• If a typo or mistake is discovered on the printed product, that was caught during proofs and not fixed by Lauren, Lauren is responsible for reprinting.
