Ordering Samples from Wedding Paper Divas

We want you to shop fully informed and with confidence, so we make all of our wedding stationery available to you as samples to view before you place your actual order online.

What Will You Receive with our Signature Collection Sample Orders?
Samples of our Signature Collection wedding invitation designs cost $7 and samples of our Signature Collection bridal shower invitations cost $3 - actually read on and you'll see, we pay you for ordering samples.

For Signature Collection wedding invitation samples, please note that we treat sample orders as samples of a design rather than by card. So when you order a sample of a particular wedding invitation card, you will receive a sample ensemble of cards that match that design. For example, if you order a sample of a wedding invitation, you will receive a sample kit of matching cards for that design, which may include the wedding invitation, response card, and reception card, plus the actual envelopes for each card - all for $7. So be sure to order only one card of each design (if you accidentally order the same design twice with two different cards, rest assured, we will promptly credit all duplicates before sending out your samples).

The sample wedding invitation cards you receive will be the standard color we showcase on our site, but along with your Signature Collection sample ensemble, you also will receive a printed color palette with each order. Rather than ordering (and paying) for a sample card in each of the colors you are interested in, we send one of each design along with a printed color palette of all colors available for that design. We find that customers enjoy this feature because not only are they able to see other colors available, which are actually printed, they also can compare different shades of the color they like. Please feel free to choose other colors online and in your sample kit to see what else might work with your theme or color scheme.

Please note that custom color requests are not available as samples. Since we require the exact CMYK color code, any such matching swatch book you choose the color from should closely match your custom colors on the stationery you choose.

If you are searching for a specific color to match the colors of your event and do not see it on our site, we now offer a collection of our 30 top-requested custom colors. If you would like to customize your Signature Collection invitation with one of our custom colors, please place an order for the Custom Color Options Card. The cards are printed on 110 lb. uncoated card stock (the same as our Signature invitations) and will provide an accurate printed representation of the color you choose.

Please do not select a color by viewing the card on your computer monitor or printed on a non-commercial printer. Our Signature cards are printed on a commercial digital 4-color printing press. To ensure that your invitations are printed with the correct color, we strongly recommend that you select a custom color only after viewing it on a printed card.

If you cannot find the color for which you are searching in our collection, please give us a call and one of our color specialists will work with you in finding the right color. Keep in mind that our Signature cards are printed on a 4-color printing press; therefore, we are not able to guarantee an exact match to a Pantone Matching System color (PMS). If you are not able to provide a CMYK (4-color) value, we will find the closest matching color to your PMS color.

For Signature Collection bridal shower invitations or Save the Date card samples, you will receive the invitation or card itself and the corresponding envelope for $3.

And now about paying you for samples...with each sample order, we send you a coupon code for $10 off of your next order of $50 or more, so we are paying you to receive samples from us!

What Will You Receive with our Letterpress Collection Sample Orders?
Samples of all of our Letterpress Collection wedding invitation designs cost $10 and include the same great coupon code mentioned above with our Signature Collection samples.

For Letterpress Collection wedding invitation samples, we continue to treat sample orders by design rather than by card and provide you with both the invitation and response card. As a result of the time and care associated with fine letterpress printing, we are unable to provide a complete wedding stationery suite, but have chosen the two sizes that are represented most. Please be sure to order only one card of each design (if you accidentally order the same design twice with two different cards, rest assured, we will promptly credit all duplicates before sending out your samples).

Along with the invitation and response card, you will also receive a complimentary sample of our lined envelope option. We have an alluring array of 24 envelope liners, which are available for a small fee with both our single and double envelope options for Letterpress Collection wedding invitations. Please note that when liners are ordered with our double envelope option, the liner will be included only on the inner, un-gummed envelope.

The sample wedding invitation cards you receive are offered in the standard color we showcase on our site. Due to the labor intensive nature of the letterpress printing process, we are unable to offer a color swatch card with each of our Letterpress Collection designs, but will happily assist you if you are interested in another letterpress color option available on our site.

Please note that custom color requests are not available for our Letterpress Collection.

What Should You Do Once You Receive Your Samples?
We recommend that you revisit our website, navigate to the design you chose, use our color palette tool to choose the color you are interested in and then look at the printed samples for color matching and print quality.

Sample Order Turnaround Timeframe
Most sample orders are processed the next business day (if placed before 3:00 pm PST) and sent via regular USPS service from our beautiful Northern California Bay Area offices.
