Get Started
Work with us directly, or work with a dealer
We’ve been building beautiful long-distance relationships with our brides for years now, and our wedding invitation clients come to us from all over the world. Since we’re an artisan letterpress shop, you’ll notice our care in our ultra-attentive customer service and in our drop-dead gorgeous printing, whether it be letterpress, foil stamping, or digital printing. We never let our clients down.
We’d love to meet you in person, too! Bella Figura has a location in New York City where you can view our work in person and work 1-on-1 with our own staff to create the invitations of your dreams.
You can work with us directly, or you can see Bella Figura at some of the finest stationery stores around the world. Our dealers are friendly and passionate experts who will help you choose—and customize!—your dream invitation. They’ll walk you through the ordering process, and they’ll give you design and wedding invitation wording advice. If you work directly with a dealer, they’ll coordinate all of your ordering information with us. Pricing is the same, whether you work with a dealer or directly with us.
Here’s how to place a custom order for your wedding invitations. (You may want to review what services we offer our customers, too.)
Order samples of your favorite designs.
Samples are $7 each. Not sure what design to choose? We can help.
Fall in love with a design. Place your order.
You can customize your chosen design by choosing your favorite inks and fonts, and adding embellishments like corner rounding, edge painting, envelope lining, die-cutting, colored envelopes, and more.
You can find pricing for many of our offerings by clicking the Quote button on the sample page. If you don’t see a Quote button, don’t worry! We’re always happy to help you with pricing. Please email hello@bellafiugra.com for pricing help.
To order, either click through the quote tool on your selected sample to send us your order or just email us directly at hello@bellafigura.com with details of what you’re interested in ordering. Either way, you’ll hear back from us to confirm all the details and move your order along. You can choose to schedule a design consultation with one of our designers during the ordering process if you’d like.
Send us your text.
We’re here to assist you with your wedding invitation wording, so ask us any questions you have! Send your text for all pieces via email to hello@bellafigura.com (don’t forget your return address!).
Enjoy the design process.
After we’ve received your text and a 50% non-refundable deposit, we’ll send your digital design proof to you within 3 business days (or 6 business days if your order contains hand calligraphy or custom artwork). You’ll be able to work one-on-one with a dedicated graphic designer to create the invitation of your dreams.
Approve your design proof.
After you’ve finalized your design, send us your written approval so that we may begin printing your order. Your remaining balance is due upon design approval.
Get ready for something wonderful.
Your order will ship 10 business days after the date of design approval. Rush services are available.

Sales tax
We charge sales tax on orders shipped to a New York state address. Orders shipped outside of New York are not charged sales tax. If you’re an international customer, you will be responsible for all import duties and taxes. We can provide your estimated landed costs (including duties) upon request.
