As we only 'print on demand', any offers from us are genuine discounts on your selected stationery - we don't host 'sales'.

To use a gift voucher, or assigned voucher code: when you have chosen and formatted your order, at the checkout page you will see below the details of your order the words, ' if you have a promotion code please enter it here'.

Enter your code in the box provided, then click 'Submit' and your discount will be reflected in the order.

You can unsubscribe from our newsletter at anytime, by following the link at the bottom of the newsletter. Click on this and follow the steps, and you will then no longer receive any marketing information from HoneyTree Publishing Ltd.

If however you are a customer and have ordered a product, we do not allow you to unsubscribe from order confirmation emails and dispatch emails, as you need to have this information.

Our turnaround time for your bespoke order is five weeks,  but don't forget, you will then have to address and send your invitations, so please allow yourself enough time!

It is advisable to order your wedding stationery in good time, particularly if you are planning a summer or Christmas wedding. It is suggested that invitations are sent out 10-12  weeks in advance of the day, and we prefer six weeks to complete your order. Therefore, you should think about ordering your stationery approx. four months in advance of your 'Big Day'.

(And don't forget, you may need to allow yourself extra postage time for overseas invitations!)

Remember when ordering your stationery that although you may be inviting 80 guests you will not need 80 invitations. Lots of your guests will be couples who can be given one invitation, as can families who live at the same address. However, it is a good idea to order a few extra day and/or evening invitations to allow for any mistakes when addressing them. You may also find that some of your guests may be unable to attend and so you should have some extra invitations to hand so that you can invite people on your reserve list.

The same 'contingency rules' apply for Save The Date Cards, RSVP Cards and Thank You Cards. Also there may be people who you know will be unable to attend, but who would still appreciate the thought of receiving an invitation.
