A milestone that will be remembered, always.
Congratulations, you've found your soulmate and are ready to embark on a lifetime of love together! But before you do, it's time to plan the perfect celebration that truly captures your unique bond.
Your wedding stationery suite is not just a collection of paper goods. It's a reflection of your love story, an expression of your personalities, and a piece of art that captures the essence of your special day. From the save-the-dates to the thank-you cards, invitations, place cards and seating charts, each piece is an opportunity to create a beautiful keepsake that you and your partner will treasure for years to come.
Start with a budget. This will help guide your decisions on what pieces to include and whether you want to go for a bespoke design or choose from a collection. Consider what's most important to you when it comes to your wedding stationery. Do you dream of having beautiful calligraphy on your invitations and envelopes? Or would you rather save that budget for day-of elements like signage and place cards? Be honest with yourself about what matters most to you and your partner, and prioritise your budget accordingly.
Where to begin…
What next?
-
Once you have a list of the essentials, think about your wedding theme and colours. Are you going for a rustic chic look or a modern and minimalist vibe? Will your colour palette feature soft pastels or bold jewel tones? The answers to these questions will help guide your design choices for your wedding stationery.
-
Think about the tone of voice you want to convey with your stationery. Will it be a formal affair, or more casual and relaxed? This will guide your choice of colours, fonts, and design elements.
-
When it comes to quantities, remember to order extra invitations and envelopes for any last-minute additions or mistakes. I always recommend ordering at least five extra - one for you to keep as a memento, one for your photographer, and a few extra for any last minute additions. It's better to have too many than not enough!
-
Ultimately, your wedding stationery should be a reflection of you and your partner, and the love that brought you together. Whether you choose a bespoke design or a collection, formal or casual tone, calligraphy or not, the most important thing is that it feels authentic and true to your vision for your special day.
