Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the perfect wedding stationery theme and colour scheme?

Start by determining your wedding theme and colour scheme, considering your style preferences, the venue, and the season. Use a mood board or vision board to visualise and refine your ideas.

What types of wedding stationery should I include for my big day?

Essential types of wedding stationery include save-the-dates, invitations, programs, place cards, and thank-you cards. Each serves a unique purpose and adds a special touch to your wedding.

What are the best printing methods for wedding stationery?

Popular printing methods include digital printing for cost-effectiveness, letterpress printing for an elegant raised texture, and foil stamping for a metallic shine. Choose based on your budget and desired look.
