You may think your wedding invitations might be small part of a big day & not mean that much BUT I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU. They can be a big influence on your day, after all, how are you planning to ask all your nearest & dearest to celebrate one of the biggest days of your life!!?
I love the fact you are able to make a statement before the actual wedding. 
Your wedding invitation are your guests first impressions of your to-be-wedding so make them count. Remember to think carefully about how you are going to grab everyone's attention, then tie the invites style in with your wedding day stationery.

Why it's worth investing
in quality wedding stationery

The invitation or save the date is the first physical thing your guests see, touch & learn about your wedding day. It gives your couples an indication of the style you are going for, the colour tones you have chosen & the overall theme.  Also remember this is something people may keep on their fridges for ages so make it fridge worthy! It starts that initial spark of excitement that the wedding is approaching.

Wedding invitations are something you can have forever as a keep sake. Being able look back at your wedding photos, videography & even your invitation will bring back all those mems!

You can have all your stationery match for your day, from the invitations to place cards or even your welcome sign which is extremely aesthetically pleasing if you ask me! (OCD much?!)


SOME 2020 stationery trends

​Sustainable;
Sustainability is a major trend these days so some couples like to use recycled & plantable seed paper for their invites or save the date.

What to include on your wedding invitation

So now it is time to decide whether you would like to send paper invites out or whether you are tech savvy enough to create them online to your guests, hoping all your guests are quite tech savvy to access them online haha.
Nowadays there is so much help out there when creating your invitations, whether you & your bridesmaids would like to get super creative in DIY invitations. Etsy & pinterest have so many designs you can buy for as little as $2 each then you can print what you want on them at Officeworks or even from home. 

Now lets talk about what to include on your invitation, you need to include anything that is vital for your guests to know about the day. 
Especially the essentials like Time, Date & Location then from there you can include how you would like your guests to RSVP. Whether it be simple with a phone number to text or ring by a certain date, or if you want to get creative you can include a slip of paper with some quirky one liners & a box for your guests to tick then send back to you!
Then there are some optional extras you can include if you desire, if kids are invited or not,
a dress code or even plus ones. Literally all up to you & what you want!
