Winter wedding stationery ideas

Winter wedding stationery ideas
Where to begin? A fun and easy way of deciding on a theme is to create a mood board or journal. Try creating 2 or 3, for example a festive one, a winter pinks one one and a snowflakes one. On your mood board include cuttings from magazines, wedding invitation samples, bouquet ideas, colours for your bridesmaid dresses and so on. You may see one idea coming together more than another, or you may find that the cost of doing one idea is the deciding factor. Try and decide on a theme before you buy your save the date cards as these can often set the mood of your wedding, giving guests an insight into what’s to come.

Natalie’s 5 winter wedding tips
  • Choose carefully - If you're choosing your save the date cards or wedding invitations during the summer months then think ahead, don’t choose something too summery as it won’t look right against a venue decorated with festive garlands and ornate Christmas trees.
  • Plan ahead - It’s a good a idea to send save the date cards out around a year in advance particularly if you’re planning a wedding around a busy time of year like Christmas. The earlier you tell your guests you're getting married, the sooner they can mark it on their calendar. Formal invitations can then follow around 3-6 months before the date of your wedding.
  • Save money where you can - Save money by popping your save the date cards inside your Christmas cards for example, this will not only save buying double the amount of postage stamps but will save time too.
  • Be organised - Beat the Christmas rush and avoid disappointment by ordering your final bits of wedding stationery early, it’s often a very busy time of year for everyone and you don’t want to end up with no table plan or order of service for instance.
  • Enjoy it – Don’t turn into the next bridezilla, being stressed will not get you anywhere, it's meant to be a happy occasion so be happy!
