Production Time

Most orders placed early in the day, ship in two-three business days and are shipped ground. If you are in a rush, you may request 3-day select, 2nd-day air, or next-day air. We recommend 3-day select since it is only a couple dollars more than ground and can save two to five days, depending where you live in relation to the plant location of the brand you chose. Due to the busy wedding season, orders may take a bit longer than usual. Orders with customer-supplied artwork take 5 days for production.
