Frequently Asked Questions

  • Our newspapers can be designed for any occasion, big or small.

    For weddings, our newspapers can be made for Save the Date and Invitations (both available as postcards or newspapers), as well as On the Day or Thank You newspapers.

    We also offer newspapers for birthdays, anniversaries, funerals, businesses and sports clubs.

    If you have an idea for a particular newspaper which isn’t listed above, that doesn’t mean it can’t be done! Get in touch and we’ll get the ball rolling.

  • Getting started is simple. Send us a message through our website, or drop us an email at lifeinprintnewspapers@gmail.com.

    We’ll send you our brochure to give you a better idea of some of the services we offer.

    You’ll also be given a short questionnaire to fill in to let us know what you’re thinking.

  • Our newspapers are fully customisable to include whatever you want.

    Typically, wedding newspapers will include a welcome to your guests, key information for the day and stories of your relationship.

    However, these are your newspapers so we’ll work to truly capture your essence.

    Once you enquire, we’ll send you a brochure including many, many things that could be included, but this list is by no means exhaustive. All ideas are welcome and we’ll work to bring them to life.

  • We have three different tiers for our designs. Our Daily Echo package offers a simple but elegant design featuring an array of photos and sticking to the most important information for the day.

    For a more customisable design, we offer two more premium packages. With our Morning Chronicle tier, you’ll write the words yourselves and send it over to us to transform it into a full newspaper.

    Our Evening Gazette package offers the full VIP journalism experience, where we’ll interview you and/or your loved ones and write content in the style of news stories and features to fill the pages.

  • For our Daily Echo packages, we’ll aim to send you a design to be proofed within 72 hours.

    Our Morning Chronicle and Evening Gazette packages take longer, but we’ll work to accommodate your deadlines. Ideally, we’d recommend a minimum of six weeks before the big day, especially during peak season.

    Rush orders may be possible depending on availability.

    We recommend 10 days for printing and delivery.

  • Our products can easily be printed professionally, or designed to be printed at home if preferred.

    We outsource printing to a professional company to ensure the highest quality product on authentic paper at either tabloid or broadsheet size.

  • All of our newspapers come as four-pagers as standard. More pages can be added at an additional cost.

    As for copies, one of the things we’ll ask at the start is how many you want. Obviously, you might be doing this well in advance of your final guest list, so that’s okay. Give us a rough idea and we’ll base your quote off that.

    Once you’ve approved the final design, let us know how many copies you need and we’ll adjust the final invoice accordingly.

  • Yes - as long as you have their permission for the photos to be included and are able to send us confirmation of that. It’s usually specified in the photographer’s contract that personal use is allowed.

    Engagement shoots make great filler for your papers. Similarly, our Thank You editions post-wedding look great filled with your professional photos from the day, both candid and posed.

  • That’s entirely up to you!

    If you have a clear vision of what you want, we’ll do our best to bring it to life. If you have absolutely no idea what to do, you can trust us to make something amazing.

  • The price will vary depending on the tier, pages, and copies.

    50% of the cost is due upfront. That way, any changes to page counts or copies can be made right up to printing time.

    Once you’ve approved your finished design, settle the outstanding balance and your newspapers will be on the way.

  • Yes, depending on availability.

    We recommend 10 days for printing and delivery to be safe.

    Our Daily Echo packages can be designed within 24 hours for rush orders. We ask for 48 hours for our Morning Chronicle package, and 72 hours for our Evening Gazette package.

    Rush orders will be charged an additional surcharge.

  • Of course. We don’t print until you’re completely happy with the finished product.

    Once we think we’re finished, we’ll send you a digital proof for you to check. If there’s anything you want to change, now’s your chance to say, and we’ll keep going until it’s perfect.
