WHY WEDDING STATIONERY IS IMPORTANT

When thinking ahead to your big day you’ll know getting the date in guests diaries and providing them with information in advance is important, but you may not realise what an opportunity personalised wedding stationery gives to creating a style that is consistent from the lead up to the big day itself.


Wedding stationery is so much more than simply communicating the details of your wedding day. Being able to send guests the details of your day in a beautiful way which reflects the two of you as a couple is truly special. My signature stationery style is hand drawn calligraphy which I use across a curated collection of wedding stationery to suit many different wedding day styles. Each of the collections can be personalised to you by changing the colour and text.

A save the date gives your guests a first impression of what to expect from your wedding day. Of course, the purpose is to get the date into everyone’s diaries, but you can also show a glimpse of a colour scheme and the style of the wedding, whether that’s formal or informal, a destination wedding full of colour or a formal black tie do.

The wedding invitation is your chance to give an introduction to the most memorable day of your life, in a personalised and stylish way. The invitation houses all the important information of the day such as location, timings, dress code, any accommodation recommendations and any information that is helpful for your guests to know in advance. Personalised stationery can include details such as a hand drawn illustration of your wedding venue, as demonstrated in the Ellie stationery collection.

There’s plenty of options for finishing touches such as wax seals in shimmering metallic tones or pastels to match your colour scheme and bespoke monograms too! I loved creating this stationery with gold hand drawn calligraphy and gold leaf detail on handmade deckle-edged paper. The his and her vow booklets are gorgeous keepsakes too with stunning silk ribbon.

If you’re looking for a more contemporary style then I have a collection with angled edges for a modern look. It’s your day so choose whatever suits your personality as a couple! The Olivia stationery collection combines angled edges, modern calligraphy and a pink colour palette which can be customised to another colour, to add foil or change the paper type.

The on the day stationery helps keep a cohesive look to bring everything together on the day. From welcome signage and table plans to wedding menus and place names. The larger stationery items are a gorgeous way to add style and colour to your day and are often accessorised with beautiful wedding blooms.

Small signage adds a lovely personalisation to the wedding day, to use as touchpoints, to style particular areas, or to capture their guests attention for details such as the drinks menu and the wedding cake flavours. All of which help guests feel connected to the couple and also very helpful information when you’re attending a wedding!
