STEP ONE
Contacts

Contact me through my contact form, and schedule a free consultation with me. We'll talk about how you wish your wedding crest. And I'll provide you a custom quote.

STEP TWO
Purchase your crest
-
I'll send you a link with a contract to sign, and a link to payment.
-
STEP THREE
Choose details
-
After you purchase a crest, I will contact you with an email and ask all the details I need to know about: shields, banner, colors, wedding date, letters, monogram, flowers, etc...
After ask all these questions, I will send you a floral board with the flowers I want to use, and monogram proof. So you can tell me if you like or not. This is a preliminary step that help me to understand if I’m doing well.
You will receive your first proof after few days (from 1 day to 10 days max).
-
STEP FOUR
Revisions and changes
-
The sooner you will reply to me, the sooner I will make the revisions.
Every crest come with 2 rounds of revisions included.
So, after the first proof you can ask all the changes you want, you will receive a second proof, you can ask other changes, you will receive a third proof. Here you can approve the file or buy extra revisions. Every extra revision price is €50.Please understand that this stage of the process can be frustrating due to the back-and-forth nature of email correspondence. It will depends on how many revisions you asked.
-
STEP FIVE
Receive the files
-
Once you approve the artwork, you cannot make any further changes. When you approve your crest, you will receive your PNG and JPG files with 300 dpi. The size of the crest is 16x18 inches, it means you can print up to this size. You can print smaller but not bigger.
You will receive different files versions: with/without dogs, only dog or venue, with/without banner. Only flowers files are not included.
The crest is an illustration and cannot be vector. I can transform it in a vector file, but it will loose the watercolor illustration. Learn more here.
