When we talk about wedding stationery, we mean everything from wedding invitations, wedding programs, menu cards, thank you notes, special announcements, bridal shower, rehearsal dinner, or engagement invitations. There are many services that can handle your requests, when it comes to wedding stationery, but why go to the extra expense when you can just as easily create your own?
The problem with wedding stationery is that you’ll probably have to take care of it as soon as you set a definite date for the event. This should be done in due time because you will need to give your guests time to clear their schedules and not book any other events on that specific date. Plus, you’re probably excited to let the world know about this beautiful moment in your life, and no one can blame you for that.
As mentioned above, there are professional services that can handle the creation and distribution of your wedding stationery. You’ll have little to do with it, unless you want to insert some custom message into them. But if you want to save some money and make it a more personal experience for you and your guests, you can easily create your own. Software options are freely and easily available to allow you to do this with a few clicks and little effort. You can then print them at home or have someone you know with a printer do it for you. Resize them accordingly so that two can fit on a standard sheet of paper if you want to save ink consumption and reduce paper usage.
The fun thing about creating your own wedding stationery is that you can individually edit and customize each one, depending on who it’s for. Insert fun messages and images and show your guests that you really care about them coming to your reception and ceremony. In addition, it will be much cheaper and you will also have fun doing it. The money you save can easily cover the bill for your wedding videography services, the services of a photographer, or part of your catering-related expenses.
One thing you probably need to keep in mind is that you will need to find a central theme for your wedding. To make everything more magical, insert that theme into your wedding stationery as well, increasing your guests’ anticipation for the ceremony and party that will follow. The theme can be underlined simply by adding a color or some relevant images to it.
