    Description

    Botticelli painted Venus arriving already whole — not becoming, simply arrived, carried in on a shell by a wind that asked for nothing in return. Perla borrows that same quiet confidence. Every piece — pressed into wax, cut along an embossed edge, finished by hand — exists to let whoever opens it understand, before a single word is read, that they were carefully considered.

    Weight220# cover stock, made to leave an impression.
    FinishQuiet and pearlescent, closer to the inside of a shell than a shine.

    Sooner gives you more room for changes along the way — this is a ceiling, not a target.
    Wedding etiquette calls for invitations to go out 6–8 weeks before the big day — many couples don't realize that until it's tight. We build in that mailing window, plus our own production time, so this date leaves you comfortable room even if a revision or two comes up.
    Origin
    Hand-formed on Italy's Amalfi coast, a papermaking tradition since the 13th century.
    Texture
    100% cotton rag — soft against the fingertips, never slick.
    A closer look
    Hold it to the light and find faint natural fiber flecks — the quiet signature of paper made by hand, not machine.

    Nothing selected yet — totally fine to skip this and figure it out later, or just continue to your inquiry.
    Do you mail the invitations to our guests?

    We ship your finished suite directly to you, ready to send — mailing to your guest list is yours to enjoy (or hand to your planner).

    Can you print our guests' names and addresses on the envelopes?

    Yes, as a Bespoke Addition — you'll share your guest list with us, and we'll print each address to match your suite.

    Is shipping included in the price?

    Pricing reflects your suite itself. Shipping is calculated at checkout based on your destination — we ship worldwide.

    Will we see a proof before it's printed?

    Yes — we send a digital proof of your invitation and monogram for your review before anything goes to print.

    How many rounds of revisions are included?

    One round is included, for correcting details (spelling, dates, addresses). Additional rounds are available for a small fee.

    Can I see the materials before committing?

    Yes — request a Paloma materials sample to feel our paper stock and print quality firsthand.

    How long does production take?

    Ready in about two to three weeks from proof approval.

    How does pricing work for larger guest lists?

    Our tier prices start at a 50-invitation minimum. We'll confirm your exact quote based on your guest count when you inquire.

    Will mailing my invitations cost extra?

    For most Paloma pieces, no — standard postage applies. Wax seals can normally trigger extra postage and require hand-canceling, since sorting machines can damage a rigid seal on the outer envelope. We avoid that by setting the seal on a protected inner envelope instead, so your outer envelope mails normally — no surcharge. That inner envelope is already included in the Wax Seal price, so there's nothing extra to add. Planning to hand-deliver instead of mail? Let us know in your inquiry — we can skip the inner envelope and adjust your price, since it's only needed for anything going through the mail.
