Everything you need to know before you order — the papers and finishes we work with, how an order moves from browsing to your door, and a few guides from the studio along the way.
A walkthrough of how any order moves through the studio, start to finish.
01 · Browse or enquireStart from a product you like, or tell us what you have in mind and we'll suggest the right pieces.
02 · Receive your quoteWe confirm the details and send a written quote within one working day. Nothing is charged yet.
03 · Approve your proofA full design proof arrives in your account. Comment anywhere on it, or approve it as it stands.
04 · Printed and deliveredOnce approved, we print, finish by hand and ship to your date. You can follow progress in your account.
The stock, the finish, the care in the fold — the things you notice in the hand rather than on a screen.
Our standard stock — smooth, substantial, never flimsy.
A heavier board for covers and keepsake pieces.
A matt, sustainably sourced paper option.
The questions we're asked most often. If yours isn't here, email the studio on info@memoriesinprints.com — Mon–Fri, 08:30 am– 05:30 pm.
No minimum — order exactly what you need, whether that's a handful of memorial cards or several hundred order of service booklets.
You'll receive a digital proof to review online. Request changes or approve it — nothing goes to print until you're happy.
Yes — proofs are approved online and we ship internationally, so distance is never a reason to compromise on the details.
Usually, yes. Send us what you have with your enquiry and we'll tell you honestly what we can match and what we'd suggest changing.
Tell us straight away. If it hasn't gone to print we'll correct it at no cost; if it has, we'll talk you through the options rather than leave you stuck.
Yes. A good part of our work comes through funeral homes, and we're set up for the timescales that involves. We're a member of the Funeral Service Association.
You'll receive a written quote first. Once it's approved we'll send a secure payment link — nothing is charged before you've agreed the price.
Notes from the studio on paper, planning and what to expect when you order with us.
Why weight matters more than brightness, and how the fold changes what a booklet feels like in the hand.
