APPROVAL &
PRODUCTION
Once the final design has been approved, and all details are confirmed, the remaining balance will be invoiced to you and due prior completion of your project. Once final proofs are approved and payment is received your signage piece(s) will go into production.

TIMELINE
A guide for custom Signage
____
When do I need to book?
Signage will require different timelines based on your specific project. A welcome sign will have a quicker turn around where as a large installation piece requires much more discussion and design.
How long does it take?
Signage requires time, but most of the time it is a seating chart, which doesn't get allotted the amount of time wished for! But dont worry! We work with your timeline to create a masterpiece! For Custom installation pieces we recommend a consultation to discuss to following things: Timeline, budget, where your piece will go, and what you design entails! We will give you a custom proposal and from there we are off flying in the beautiful world of possibilities!
For smaller signage (for example a 2'x3' Welcome sign) turn around will be 7-10days after designs are approved.
For larger scale signage (for example a 3'x4' seating chart) turn around will be 10-14+ after designs are approved and once we have received your final guest list/table assignments.
For installation pieces (for example a free standing 4'x8' installation) turn around time will be a 14 day minimum. Timing will depend on the detail as well as what the piece is for (escort wall, drink display, etc.)
With all that said, everyones signage is completely unique and individual and will have their own custom timelines, this will be discussed in the proposal/booking stage.
