About

Overview & Vibe

Papermarc prints wedding invitations and event stationery from its Melbourne base and sends orders Australia wide. Proofs can be collected in-store rather than posted, and you can make an appointment to see the product in person before deciding. The range is built around named designs, with matching stationery available across it: invitations, save the dates, menus, place cards, orders of service, welcome signs, seating charts, thank you cards and envelopes. Each item is priced separately, in quantity packs.

Style & Printing

The studio describes two of its designs as bridging timeless with contemporary, and as a classic yet modern typographic design. The printing list includes letterpress, foil, white ink, digital print, raised printing, colour commercial offset, embossing and form cutting, with wax seals available. Guest names can be printed onto the pieces and onto the envelopes.

Ideal For

Couples who want printed stationery in their hands rather than artwork to take elsewhere, and who would rather see and feel a stock before choosing it. It also suits a smaller wedding: the design packs are sold from twenty pieces, below the minimums that apply to the specialist printing processes.

The Need-to-Knows

For wedding and event stationery, the whole process normally takes about two weeks.
Proofing runs to about one week, with one proof per week, and each set of changes takes about another week.
Printing takes up to seven business days from the date your artwork is approved.
Proofs can be collected in-store or posted to you.
Minimums vary by process: 75 on the event stationery ranges for offset, raised printing, foil, letterpress, embossing and form cutting, and 35 for any other event stationery order. The printed personal stationery range has its own minimum of 50.
Orders are sent by Australia Post Express, and international shipping is quoted on request.
Payment is made when the order is placed, before proofs are created, and customised items are paid in full before the job commences.
Samples are $15.00 for an invitation and $10.00 each for other items, plus postage.

Standout Feature

Prices are published as a quantity ladder for each product, from twenty pieces up to two hundred, so you can compare totals yourself before you enquire rather than waiting on a quote.
