The Bespoke Timeline: When to Begin, What to Order, & When to Send It

If you’re planning your 2026 or 2027 wedding, this guide will help you understand when to begin, what to order, and when to send each piece, so your stationery journey feels calm, creative, and perfectly timed.

Bespoke stationery is not something you rush. Every design, illustration, and print method requires intention and time. By planning early, you give your suite the space for design refinement, specialty printing, and all the small meaningful touches that make your stationery yours. From initial concept to the final touches, the Chroma process takes about 10-12 weeks. This means reaching out early ensures your wedding stationery is created with the care and artistry it deserves.

If you’re hosting a destination wedding or have a majorty out-of-town guests, we recommend adding 2-3 months to your stationery timeline. This ensures guests have enough time to arrange flights, hotels, and time off.
