Preparation
We are meticulous in the detail of our invitations, and we strive to make sure our products go above and beyond your expectations. With that in mind, there are a few things you should think about to prepare yourself for our meeting:
1.THEMES: Do you have a theme for your event? Is there a storyline that the event is based upon?
2.COLORS: What are the colors you are using for the event? Are there specific colors you’d like us to use in your invitations? Do you want the invitations to match any particular detail?
3.CONTENT: Do you need RSVP cards? If this is for a fundraiser, do you need a separate page with information detailing the charity? Do you need tickets made up? Do you plan on adding something personal into the invitation?
4.WORDING: Event date, time, host/sponsors, location/address, RSVP info, dress code, website (if applicable)
5.How many invitations are you going to need?
6.Do you have a budget range with which you plan to work?
The design process begins with an initial consultation. This can be done by phone, email or in person. We require a $100.00 non-refundable fee should you decide you’d like to move forward and have a sample created. This fee may be applied toward your order. You will have the opportunity to edit/change your design 2 times. Any additional changes will require a $50.00 sample fee. After the initial consultation and sample design, we will present you with a quote.
Please call 917.941.5212 or email us at jennifer_toastinvitations.com to set up an appointment to discuss your event.
Proposal
Once we have provided you with a sample, and you are happy with the design, we will send you a contract listing all of the items ordered, as well as a breakdown of the materials, colors, printing, expected delivery date, pricing, and any other relevant details to your order. Once you have approved the contract and made any necessary changes, we require you sign off on the project and return the documents back to us with a 50% deposit. The remaining balance is due prior to mailing out the completed invitations. We will contact you before your project is completed to set the final payment date.

About Me
Art has been my passion ever since the day I was able to hold a crayon. At the University of Maryland, I majored in Studio Art where I refined my skills in sculpture, painting, and drawing. After college, I applied my love of art to the makeup and fashion industries as a makeup artist for everything from fashion photo shoots to in-store promotions and brand launches. With a stroke of luck, I fell into event planning and design for night clubs and restaurants throughout New York City. With full responsibility for the success of each event, I poured my heart and soul into every detail, including the invitations which I designed and created by hand. The reactions to these invitations were overwhelming and soon I had a roster of friends and corporate clients luring me to create invitations for their special occasions and events. And thats how Toast Invitations was born.
My number one priority is creating invitations that are unique, and with every detail executed to perfection. The goal is that every recipient of a Toast Invitation feels an element of surprise and delight upon opening their hand-made invite. Special is the word I use to describe my final products. And with so many repeat clients, I think they agree!
