What to include in your wedding stationery


Hi Lovebirds,

Your wedding day is a beautiful celebration of your love story, and your wedding stationery sets the stage! It's not just about invitations – it's about creating a cohesive look and experience for your guests.

But with so many options, where do you begin? Don't worry, lovebirds! We've got you covered.

Here's what to include in your wedding stationery (remember, it's all about what feels right for you!):

  • Save the Date Cards: Announce your wedding date in style (optional, but helpful for faraway guests).
  • Wedding Invitations: The formal invitation sets the tone for your celebration. Include essential details like date, time, venue, and RSVP information. You can also opt for a wedding website like Appy Couple instead of printed invitations for a sustainable option :-)
  • Welcome Sign: Greet guests warmly at the entrance to your ceremony or reception venue.
  • Ceremony Programs: Outline the order of service, introduce your wedding party, and special readings (optional, but helpful for guests unfamiliar with the ceremony format).
  • Cocktail Hour Signage: Guide guests with directional signs, fun bar menus, game instructions, and guest book instructions (optional, but adds a touch of personalization).
  • Seating Chart: Ensure a smooth transition to the reception with a clearly organized seating chart.
  • Table Numbers: Help guests find their assigned tables with elegant table numbers.
  • Name Cards: Add a personal touch with beautiful name cards for each guest's seating.
  • Menus: Elevate your reception dinner with beautifully designed menus showcasing your chosen dishes.
  • Customized Gifts: Thank your guests for celebrating with personalized favours that double as keepsakes – think engraved coasters, mini succulents, or donation cards to a charity you love.

Remember, your wedding stationery is all about reflecting your unique style. You can choose a pre-designed suite or work with a designer to create custom pieces.
