While couples tend to focus primarily on the wedding invitation, the wedding paper trail is far more complex and requires careful planning and timely execution to avoid last-minute complications. Aside from the wedding invitation, parents and friends of the bridal couple often host engagement parties, showers, bridesmaids’ parties, rehearsal dinners, morning-after brunches and other wedding events. Save-the-date announcements have become almost a necessity to insure that your guests and family can begin making early travel and accommodation arrangements.
Wedding programs have also become an increasingly important component of wedding ceremonies and generally requires careful coordination with your Church or Synagogue. The reception has its own logistical components to consider: table cards, seating cards and menu cards. And finally, the bridal couple needs to select stationery to thank guests for their gifts and presence at the wedding. In short, the wedding paper trail is complex and requires careful planning and even better execution. The planning timeline provides some helpful suggestions on helping you navigate your paper trail.
A wedding is simply too important to be left to chance. Seek professional advice and hands-on service from people who are knowledgeable and care. Guild members do not sell wedding invitations or other wedding papers over the internet because there is no way to adequately replicate the feel, weight and artistry that goes into making custom wedding papers.
