Last reviewed: August 9, 2026. Kid Icarus wedding invitations Toronto are designed and printed through a Kensington Market gift shop and screen-print studio. The business’s official website confirms wedding design and printing services, including hand-printed stationery suites for couples planning a local celebration.

Rather than offering a fixed online invitation collection, Kid Icarus describes an appointment-based process for custom work. Couples can bring their own invitation artwork or work with the studio’s design team, then review a digital proof before the hand screen-printing stage begins.

Services and specialization

Kid Icarus specializes in screen printing on paper. Its official services page specifically includes wedding invites and custom cards, while its wedding-design page says it can design and print elements of a wedding stationery suite by hand.

Confirmed suite components include save-the-date cards, invitations and RSVP cards, maps and directions, menus, programs, place cards, thank-you cards and donation cards. The studio says it can work from client-supplied invitation artwork or provide design support, depending on the project.

Custom rubber stamps are also listed as a service, including return-address templates. This may be relevant to couples who want a separate stamp for envelopes or other paper details, but availability and suitability for a particular wedding project should be confirmed directly.

Design and printing process

The official wedding page sets out a consultation, design and printing sequence. The initial consultation is described as a chance to review previous work, samples and the pieces to be included in the suite. Kid Icarus then provides pricing options based on guest count and selected elements.

For studio-designed work, the business says its design process averages about three weeks before a digital proof is sent by email. Clients using their own artwork may skip the design appointment and submit artwork by email. After the proof is approved and paper and colours are selected, the studio begins printing.

Screen printing is done by hand, colour by colour. Kid Icarus says it generally does not provide a printed proof because of the set-up time and cost involved, but it provides a digital proof before printing. Treat the stated averages as planning guidance rather than a guaranteed completion date.

Service area and who it may suit

Kid Icarus is located at 205 Augusta Avenue in Toronto’s Kensington Market. Its official wedding page asks couples to make an appointment to visit the storefront to discuss options; it does not accept walk-in consultations for wedding projects.

The studio may suit couples who want custom paper stationery and are comfortable with a hands-on screen-printing process rather than selecting a ready-made online template. It may also suit couples who want several coordinated printed pieces, since the official page lists both pre-wedding and day-of stationery. The website does not clearly publish a wedding-specific delivery or shipping policy, so out-of-town couples should ask before committing.

Confirmed strengths and practical limitations

A documented feature is in-house, hand screen printing on paper in Kid Icarus’s brick-and-mortar studio. The business also confirms a choice between client-supplied artwork and support from its design team, as well as a digital-proof stage before printing.

The main practical limitation is lead time. The wedding page asks couples to allow at least 30 days from the initial consultation for design and production, and describes an overall process of about four weeks. More complex suites, changes after proofing or a requested printed proof may require additional time.

The official services page displays inconsistent store-hour information in separate page areas. Confirm the current consultation time and storefront hours when booking instead of relying on a single posted schedule.

Pricing

Current pricing is not explicitly published. Kid Icarus does not list a standard wedding-suite price or per-invitation rate on its wedding-services page.

The official process states that a quote includes printing, paper and envelopes, and that the design fee is additional, charged hourly according to design complexity and the number of pieces. It also says a 50% deposit is taken at the initial consultation based on the quoted amount.

If a printed proof is required, the wedding page gives an indicative cost of $100 to $300, depending on the design’s number of colours and the screens required. This is a proof estimate, not a total invitation price. Ask for a written quote covering the exact suite, quantity, design fee, paper, envelopes, proofing and any changes.

Contact and booking

Book a wedding consultation by calling 416-977-7236 or using the email contact route on Kid Icarus’s official website. The business asks couples to call or email for an appointment and says it cannot accept walk-in wedding consultations.

Before the meeting, prepare the guest count, event date, the stationery pieces needed, any wording, colour ideas and visual references. The official page encourages couples to bring or share inspiration, and says the first consultation generally takes less than 30 minutes.

Because the published process includes a deposit after the quote, confirm the current quote validity, payment method, deposit terms and pickup or delivery arrangements directly with the studio.

What couples should confirm

Start with the date you need each stationery item in hand, not just the wedding date. The official page suggests mailing save-the-dates about six months before the wedding, invitations and RSVP cards about two months before, and day-of materials about one month before. Destination-wedding invitations are suggested at least four months before the wedding.

Confirm whether the project can meet those milestones after design, proof approval and printing time. It is also sensible to verify the final quantity, the number of ink colours, paper choice, envelope options, whether a printed proof is necessary, and the process for corrections after the digital proof.

If you have designed your own invitations, ask for current artwork-submission requirements before finalizing files. For any custom project, request the final scope, proof approval point, payment schedule and collection or delivery date in writing.

Whether the chosen suite and guest count fit the current production schedule.
Whether the quote includes all paper, envelopes, design work and proofing costs.
Whether the project needs a printed proof in addition to the digital proof.
Whether pickup, shipping or another delivery arrangement is available for the completed suite.
