Crafting Your Wedding Stationery Journey: The Ultimate Guide
Hey lovely couples! Vicky here from Inviting Writing, your go-to gal for all things calligraphy in the world of weddings. Today, I'm spilling the ink on the perfect timeline for your wedding stationery adventure. Buckle up, because we're about to turn your paper dreams into handwritten reality!
Let's rewind the clock to 7+ months before the big day. Picture this: you're sipping on tea, browsing our website, and thinking about the enchanting designs you want. Click over to Inviting Writing's Save the Dates and Invitations page, get inspired, and then shoot me a message. We'll have a chat, I'll whip up a quote for you, and the creative journey officially begins!
Fast forward to 3-6 months out - it's time to spread the love with your invitations. If you're feeling a bit cheeky and want to keep those numbers in check, consider my pro tip: leave your invitations for later! Who knew procrastination could be so strategic, right?
But seriously, send them out six months before the big day if you skipped save the dates, and three months in advance if you've already teased your guests with those early sneak peeks.
Now, let's talk 8 weeks before showtime. We're getting down to the nitty-gritty details. Finalise those colours, finishes, and guest numbers with me in a final meeting or an email exchange – whatever floats your paper boat. We're aiming for perfection, people!
Zoom in to 1 month before the "I dos." The excitement is real, and so is the balance due. Get those wedding day details locked in, and while you don't need a specific table plan just yet, toss me the number of tables, guests per table, and a vague design idea.
Hit fast forward again to 1 week before your magical day. The final amendments to your table plan are due, and I'm ready to work my calligraphy magic on your signage and on-the-day stationery like table names and place cards. Trust me, your tables are going to look Instagram-worthy!
To make your wedding stationery journey even smoother, head over to Inviting Writing's Wedding Calligraphy page for a visual feast of calligraphic delights. Oh, and don't forget to check out On-The-Day Stationery & Wedding Signage for a sneak peek into the finishing touches that will make your celebration unforgettable.
Planning your wedding stationery should be as enjoyable as saying "I do." With a sprinkle of British charm and a touch of calligraphic elegance, Inviting Writing is here to turn your paper dreams into reality. Let's make your wedding day truly handwritten, shall we?
