Presentation, contents and handoff
How will the gifts be handed over?
The way the gifts are presented, packed and moved affects the packaging. Think about the contents, the handoff and any preparation your team will do before the event.
Space for each item
Gift size, weight and fragility help guide the insert layout. Include anything that needs a particular position or should be easy to remove.
Packing and setup
Explain how your team or event partner will fill, store or set out the gifts after the boxes arrive. These plans can affect the packaging.
Arrival before the event
Share when you need the finished boxes at their destination. Allow for any unpacking, gift packing or setup you’ll do before the event.
Box, insert and presentation
Work out the box around the gifts.
Bring a description or photos of what goes inside. We can help develop the rigid-box construction, insert and finishes; a finished specification isn’t needed to enquire.
Browse our event and VIP gift packaging for presentation ideas.
Several items in one gift?
The layout can account for item size, weight and how each piece will be revealed or removed. Flag anything fragile.
Want a particular opening style?
Share how you want the gift to open and what recipients should see first. The construction, insert position, printed surfaces and finishes can be considered together.
Moving the gifts before the event?
Tell us how the packaging will travel and be handled before the handoff. Outer packing may need to be considered alongside the rigid box and insert.
Artwork and references are welcome if you have them. Client packaging uses your approved artwork, without SleekBoxes branding.
Design, review and delivery planning
Work back from the packaging arrival date.
Review the design and agree the production scope before the full run. Cost and timing depend on construction, quantity, materials, sampling and delivery needs.
Box and insert direction
We recommend the construction and visual direction around the gifts, presentation and delivery needs.

Event date already fixed?
Discuss Your Timeline
Include the arrival date and destination.
Use the date the packaging must reach you, which may be earlier than event day. Include any venue receiving requirements you already know.
Rush options on request
Short on time before the event?
Rush production is available on request for suitable projects and may cost extra. Share when and where you need the packaging so we can discuss feasibility.
Gift and insert requirements
Several items, fragile pieces or an unusual shape can make the insert more involved. Describe the gifts and add photos or sizes if available.
Essential materials and finishes
Tell us what must stay in the design and where you are open to alternatives. Construction, print and finish choices affect the options available.
Any physical sample
If you need to check fit, materials or construction in person, discuss the sample type. Physical sampling affects cost and the schedule.
Venue receiving details
If the venue has given you a receiving window or access restrictions, include them in the brief. These requirements need to be reviewed with the delivery plan.
Rush feasibility depends on quantity, construction, materials, sampling needs, production availability and destination. The packaging options and delivery plan need confirmation for your project.
Need packaging sooner?
Ask About Rush Options
Ask about the rush option.
Share the required arrival date and destination, plus the gifts and quantity if known. We’ll discuss feasibility and any additional charges.
Start with what you know
Enquire with the gift plans you have.
Tell us what the gifts are for and what you expect to put inside. Add the information below if you know it; estimates are useful too.
Gift contents
Describe the items and add photos or approximate sizes if available.
Approximate quantity
Share an estimate if you have one. The final number of gifts can be discussed.
Packaging arrival date
Include when you need the finished boxes to arrive if that date is fixed.
Delivery plans
Include where you need the boxes and any onward movement your team will arrange, if known.
A finished dieline isn’t needed.
Artwork, references and budget guidance are welcome too. The box and insert can be discussed after your first enquiry.
Design and production approval
Review the design before production.
Use the initial 3D digital mockup to review the look of the box. Ask about a physical sample if you need to check fit, materials or construction in person.
