Delivered within 3-5 working days of ordering, once your free print preview is approved. That window is the whole job, not just the van: we print, finish and dispatch your order and the tracked carrier delivers it. The clock starts when you approve your free print preview, so approving promptly is the fastest thing you can do.
Choose your delivery speed at checkout. Every parcel is tracked:
- • Standard delivery: 3-5 working days, free to UK mainland addresses on orders over £50, £5.99 below that
- • Next-day delivery: next working day when you order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, priced at checkout
- • Next-day by 1pm or by 10.30am: next working day, with the courier aiming for the time chosen (a target, not a guarantee), when you order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, priced at checkout
- • Saturday delivery: Saturday, for orders approved by 2.30pm on Friday, priced at checkout
- • Same-day delivery in London: order up to 500 units with print-ready artwork and approve it by 2.30pm Mon–Fri, and a tracked courier delivers the same day. Priced at checkout, including same-day production.
Northern Ireland, the Highlands & Islands, the Isle of Wight, offshore and international addresses are priced live at checkout, as are unusually heavy orders: over 15kg is £14.95 whatever the order value. Flat prints bigger than A4, such as A3 posters or 25 cm stickers, travel in a larger, board-backed pack: paid delivery services carry a packing charge for it, shown at checkout, and free standard delivery stays free. Very large pieces (any side over 120 cm, such as A0 boards) go by courier rather than post, at the courier price shown at checkout for each service. Pieces over 150 cm, or over 100 cm both ways, are beyond the parcel couriers: they travel with a specialist courier at the rate shown at checkout, or we split the artwork into smaller panels for you free of charge.

Every order is covered by the Presswift Guarantee: printed to the print preview you approve and the specification you choose, or put right. If what arrives is damaged, short or does not match the approved print preview, contact us within 7 days of delivery with your order number, photos of the problem and a count of the affected copies, and keep the copies unused while we look. We reprint the affected copies to the same specification or, where a reprint is not practical, refund them; approved refunds reach your original payment method within 7-10 working days. Read the Presswift Guarantee.
Because every job is printed to your own artwork and specification, we cannot take a return simply because you have changed your mind, and errors carried through the print preview you approved, or colour and trim variation within normal print tolerance, are not print faults. That is what the free print preview is for: check the colours, wording and layout on the print preview and nothing goes to press until you are happy with it.
What is in the wedding sample pack?
Printed samples of our invitation stocks — including Mohawk Superfine Ultrawhite Eggshell, Gmund Bauhaus Dessau, GF Smith Accent Antique Silk and heavyweight uncoated — plus gold and silver digital foil swatches and a short paper guide.
Is the sample pack free?
It is charged at order and then credited back against your wedding stationery order, so if you go on to order invitations the pack has cost you nothing. There is one pack per household.
Are the samples printed or blank?
Printed on our own presses, which is the point of the pack — a blank swatch tells you how a paper feels but not how ink and foil sit on it. You see the stock and the print together.
Can I ask for a specific paper?
The pack covers the wedding range as standard. If there is a particular stock you want to see, or a piece of your own artwork you would like printed on it, contact us and we will tell you what is possible.
When should I order the sample pack?
Before you settle on a design. Changing your mind about paper at the sample stage costs nothing; changing it after the suite has been set and previewed means reworking artwork you have already approved.
How much does the Wedding Sample Pack cost?
The Wedding Sample Pack starts from £5.43 excluding VAT. The price updates live on this page as you choose your size, paper stock and quantity, and the price per unit falls at higher quantities.
What sizes does the Wedding Sample Pack come in?
The Wedding Sample Pack is available in one size: A5. You can also enter a custom size in millimetres and see the price update instantly.
Which paper stocks can I choose for the Wedding Sample Pack?
You can print the Wedding Sample Pack on 270gsm Silk Accent Antique, 324gsm Uncoated Mohawk Superfine Ultrawhite Eggshell, 350gsm Uncoated and 350gsm Uncoated Weiss 2. Every stock is listed with its weight so you can balance feel and budget, and the page reprices as you switch.
Can I get the Wedding Sample Pack delivered the same day?
Yes, on orders of up to 500 items with print-ready artwork. Order the Wedding Sample Pack, and approve your artwork, by 2.30pm Mon–Fri and a tracked courier delivers it the same day in London. Elsewhere in the UK, standard tracked delivery takes 3-5 working days, with express and next-day options at checkout (next-day: order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri).
How much is delivery for the Wedding Sample Pack?
Standard tracked delivery is free to UK mainland addresses on orders over £50 (£5.99 below that), and takes 3-5 working days from ordering. Northern Ireland, the Highlands & Islands, the Isle of Wight, offshore and international addresses are priced live at checkout, as are orders over 15kg (£14.95 whatever the order value). Express and next-day services are available at checkout (next-day: order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri), and a courier can deliver in London on the day you order when you order and approve your artwork by 2.30pm Mon–Fri.
Do you provide free artwork templates for the Wedding Sample Pack?
Supply your wedding sample pack artwork as a print-ready PDF with 3mm bleed, CMYK colour and images at 300dpi. Full guidance is in the Artwork Guidelines section on this page, and our free digital proof catches any setup issues before printing.
About Wedding Sample Pack
Choosing wedding stationery from a screen is guesswork: a photograph cannot tell you how a 324gsm eggshell differs from a 350gsm uncoated, or how gold foil sits on a soft, tactile paper compared with a smooth silk. The sample pack solves that by putting the range in your hands.
The pack brings printed samples of our invitation stocks — including Mohawk Superfine Ultrawhite Eggshell, Gmund Bauhaus Dessau, GF Smith Accent Antique Silk and heavyweight uncoated — together with gold and silver digital foil swatches and a short paper guide explaining what each stock is like to write on, to post and to hold. Everything in the pack is printed on our own presses, so what you feel is what your invitations will be printed on.
One pack per household, and we credit the cost back against your wedding stationery order, so trying the range before you commit costs you nothing in the end. Order it early: the papers that surprise people most are usually the ones they had not considered, and it is much easier to change your mind at the sample stage than after the invitations have been set.
Choosing paper
Compare eggshell, uncoated and silk in your own hands.
Seeing foil
Check how gold and silver sit on each stock.
Matching a scheme
Hold the papers against your colours and flowers.
