On the most important day of your life, you want everything to be perfect from your matrimonial gown to the silverware at the reception. Sometimes overly eager couples would not mind what their invitation cards and guestbooks look like. But do you know that your invite represents something about yourselves and the kind of evening you have planned?
It is recommended that you start thinking about your stationery at least 6 months before. Consumer Direct warns of "wedding planning pitfalls..." so make sure to carefully arrange every detail. Ask yourself (and your partner) these questions to narrow down your choices.
Q: What will my wedding theme be?A: If you prefer the traditional way, common colours are gold and white, but other hues that are whimsical and less strict can be used. Trending themes nowadays are purple, Tiffany blue and pale aqua, peach and pearl, and hot pink. Picking the right one for you is crucial for you to easily coordinate your decisions on décor, favours, flowers, dresses, menu and all the other required items.
Q: Where do we tie the knot?For example, you've both decided to do the ceremony in a tropical island abroad, like Jamaica, you can design it to look like boarding passes to spark some excitement. Or, you can make it look like an elegant keepsake from your chosen location. Examples of popular venues are castles, beaches, manors, and abbeys.
Q: What will our style be?For every couple, there is a determining quality that sets them apart from the others. If it so happened that you both love scuba diving or mountain trekking, a design inspired by such activities will creatively capture your personalities and compatibilities.
The stationery is used as invitations, place cards, thank you cards, and order of service. And if your budget permits, you can use these for ordering table names, seating plans, menus and even printed cocktail napkins and coasters. However, be sure to know more about printing costs to be able to budget your finances properly. With the right designs, you are on your way to achieving the perfect nuptial.
