About

Overview & Vibe

Events on Paper is a laser-cut invitation specialist working from a home-based studio in Melbourne’s north west, about twenty minutes from the CBD. It has been going since 2008, which makes it one of the longest-standing single-owner stationery studios in Victoria, and the showroom holds hundreds of finished samples you can handle before you choose.

Style & Printing

Laser cutting is the house technique, and the range of formats is unusually wide: flat, double flat, book fold, wallet, pocket and laser-cut designs in a long list of shapes, colours and finishes. Printing is done onsite, one side digital, and the studio has a real appetite for themed work alongside the black-tie lace and the classic white.

Ideal For

Couples who want to see and feel the paper before committing, and who like the idea of an invitation guests actually remark on. It suits anyone wanting a cut cover rather than a flat card, and anyone needing printing in a language other than English, which is offered at no extra charge.

The Need-to-Knows

Pricing is per piece rather than per package: invitations run from $5.50 to $6.50 each, place cards from $1.70, and an A1 foamboard seating chart is $150. You approve a proof before anything is printed, usually within a day of ordering, and production then takes about five business days. Appointments are essential, including for the showroom.

Standout Feature

They will print your guests’ names and addresses straight onto the envelopes, so the suite arrives finished rather than waiting for you to hand-write a hundred of them. Consultations run online as well as in person, on weeknights and weekends.

Appointment Policy

  • Showroom consultations are complimentary and appointments are essential, so get in touch before visiting. Weeknight and weekend times are available, and an online consultation covers the same range by video for couples who cannot come in. A sample pack can be arranged afterwards.

Areas Serviced

  • Melbourne, with the studio about twenty minutes north west of the CBD.
  • Ships Australia-wide with Australia Post, and the studio says it is trusted by couples across Australia and by more than twenty specialty venues.

Delivery & Postage

  • Standard delivery is three to five business days with Australia Post. Express is usually next day in metro areas and can be chosen at checkout. Larger signage such as the A1 seating chart is collected from the studio, with delivery charged separately.

Minimum Order

  • 20

Nearby Landmarks

  • Melbourne Airport. The main airport, a short drive north of the studio.
  • Brimbank Park. A large parkland reserve in the Maribyrnong valley at Keilor East.
  • Essendon Fields. The former Essendon aerodrome, now an airfield and business and retail precinct.
  • Highpoint Shopping Centre. The large shopping centre at Maribyrnong.

Per-Piece Pricing

  • Laser-cut wedding invitations, $5.50 to $6.50 each.
  • Pill-shaped place cards, $1.70 to $2.00 each.

Price Notes

  • Pricing is per piece rather than per package, so the cost of a suite depends on how many you order and which pieces you include.
  • Printing in languages other than English is offered at no extra charge.
  • The A1 seating chart price covers collection from the studio; delivery is charged on top.
  • Cancellations are refunded on a sliding scale. Once design work has begun but before the artwork is approved, 80% is refunded, which the studio says covers costs already incurred. Once printing or production has started, the order cannot be cancelled and no refund applies, because custom items cannot be resold.

Printing Methods

  • laser cut
  • digital
  • foil

Proofs & Revisions

  • A proof is sent for review, usually within twenty four hours of ordering, and printing begins only once you have approved the final design. Changes can be requested at the proof stage, and approving the artwork confirms that the specifications are correct.
