When budgeting for stationery, invitations are not the only avenue to consider. There are a large variety of fine paper products to consider using on your big day.

All of these products can be customized and utilized to tie in your wedding theme throughout the celebration. Personalized ceremony programs, place cards and butler cards, as well custom cocktail napkins, are some of the more well known fine paper products that people include. Providing a unique motif that will be incorporated through stationery is a special way to manage the design flow of the event.

Other great stationery pieces to consider are welcome packets for out of town guests, favor tags and station signs for hors d’oeuvres or a buffet. Welcome packets are a warm touch for out of town guests and can be arranged to greet them in their accommodations. This makes guests feel appreciated for making the trip to your wedding, and is most certainly a preview of your wedding style. Favor tags are a small touch that can make a large statement to guests as they receive their favors at the event, maybe it says a simple “thank you” or something more personal; nonetheless, the tags show thought and consideration. The festive touch of station signs adds elegance as well as functionality to the event. They allow guests to be informed of the food choices so they know exactly what they are being offered to eat.
Another great concept are custom “Just Married” signs to use for the grand exit, it will leave guests knowing that you planned your event truly from the beginning to the end. All of these important details will pull everything together and will impress your guests.
Personalized announcements are truly special. Customize these invites with a monogram of special designs. I also liked “saved the date” invites which are truly unique.
Personalized stationery is truly alluring and whimsical. Nothing shows your personality like customized stationery.
