Ido-personalise.co.uk the new name for ido-print.co.uk

I am not sure the reasoning behind the change of name as ido-print.co.uk becomes ido-personalise.co.uk recently. The name is owned by leading wedding stationery publishers CCA Occasions and I guess the brand name change was made to underpin the key selling point behind the trading name. The thing that sets ido-personalise.co.uk apart from the rest is the way that the customer can personalise their stationery online. CCA Occasions have invested a lot of time and money into developing Pageflex technology. There are many companies that let you personalise your stationery online but these almost always rely on some manual proofsetting after you have placed your order. These suppliers will usually have to send you a pdf to show you the exact layout and spacing and to show you what your chosen font and ink colour will look like. Some may even need to mock up an actual card for you with your chosen design and wording. This is not the case with ido-personalise.co.uk where they really do leave the work to you when it comes to preparing your cards for print.

This is of course not to everyones taste and some people may prefer the personal touch and some feedback as to their choice of wording and etiquette. For those however, who want a no fuss, order and forget about it approach, to ordering their stationery then sharing the proof burden up front may be the perfect option. Ido-personalise does give you a handful of suggested wording layouts and covers the popular choices of parents hosting or bride and groom hosting their own etc. You then have the tools to drag, drop and add text etc and convert your work into a printable pdf for proofing more carefully. There is no going back and once you have approved your proof and paid for your order there is a good chance it will be running through the digital presses in CCA Occasion’s Preston factory within a few hours. It is doubly important therefore to check for spelling and grammatical errors again and again. Let your partner or friend check for you as well because it is so easy to become proof blind to an obvious error even after checking through yourself several times. Another paid of eyes reading your wording for the first time can save you a costly reprint bill down the line.

All of the designs at Ido-personalise are printed on a digital press and have a glossy finish. Many of them let you incorporate the bride and groom’s name on to the front of the card in “Moonpig style” fashion. This an original approach to wedding card design but unfortunatly there is little originality between different items with a range and you will tend to find that the only thing that may differentiation an invitation, reply card and Order of service is that size of the board it is printed on. There is also no finishing touches or extra processes on offer so you will not find any foiling, embossing, die cutting, laser cutting, raised ink, ribbons embellishments etc etc that other companies often use to add a luxury finish. CCA Occasions will be quick to point out however that they do have a portfolio of other brands that cater for these tastes more than adequately and Ido-personalise cater for quick printed contemporary designs at a reasonable price. In fact, price is one thing they are generous with and this is no surprise since they are leaving a lot of the hardwork to you when it come to proofing your order.
