Wedding stationery can be obtained from a number of sources: mail order, printer,
stationers and stationery designers or you can buy online from confetti.co.uk's extensive range of wedding
stationery.
The range of items and styles is vast and it would be all too
easy to get carried away. You may expect to simply choose the invitation
style you want, it will be printed and supplied with matching envelopes
and you are away. Certainly in some cases this may be so but wait
until you see what is on offer:
Invitations – envelope seals – cake
boxes – place cards–matchbooks – serviettes – serviette rings – coasters –
favour boxes – menu scrolls – menus – guest book – adhesive bottle labels – seed sticks – personalised ribbon - acceptance – order of service sheets – thank
you cards - you can even have
chocolates with personalised wrappers!
It should also be said that many of these items provide delightful
keepsakes and at least some are worth considering. They can also
provide a wonderful way of continuing a theme for your wedding.
Invitations are obtainable in virtually any design
you choose and specialist companies can even offer you the option
of having your invitation personalised. Don’t forget
that you will need separate invitations for those being invited
to the evening reception only and there is also the option of including
response cards together with printed envelopes.

Custom designed stationery is becoming more popular and really add something to the image of the occasion. Commissioning
a designer to create your wedding stationery is one way of putting a personal mark on your wedding but
remember that it will almost certainly take longer to deliver than pre-printed items.
Taking into account
that invitations should be sent out no later than six weeks before the wedding and preferably eight
to nine weeks before, a first consultation with the designer should really take place around four or
five months before the wedding.
Prices will naturally be higher than for mass produced stationery
but by how much will depend on the amount of work involved, the
quality of the paper used and the number of items ordered. It is
important to fix a deadline for completion and the price at the
beginning in order to avoid unpleasant surprises.
Send these to your guests in advance of your wedding to make sure they keep your special day free.
Send these to your guests about 6 to 8 weeks prior to your wedding to make sure they respnd on time so you can plan accordingly.
