A helpful little guide to knowing when & where stationery fits into your wedding planning

Knowing where to begin planning a wedding can sometimes feel a little overwhelming. Here are a few tips to help you get started, find your wedding vision, and use it for your wedding stationery.

  1. BREATHE IN AND ENVISION YOUR WEDDING

Before you do anything, take a moment. I always suggest sitting down together and letting your minds wander. Start imagining your vision for your wedding.

What do you want your wedding to be? What does it look like, feel like, sound like, smell like? Who is there with you? What time of day is it? What's the weather like?

Once you have a vision, write it down, even if it's just a blurry, hazy feeling.

That will be enough to keep coming back to, and it’s a great reminder if you get lost along the way. Comparison, Pinterest rabbit holes, questioning relatives, can sometimes make you lose sight of your original intention. Having it written down can be a great tool for you to look at whenever you need. It will also be great when you’re searching for suppliers and finding ideas.

2. BOOK THE PLACE & DATE

Once you've found the place you want to marry, all the other details can be decided. Use it as your anchor for every part of your wedding, such as booking a photographer, or choosing seasonal flowers, or buying (weather-appropriate) outfits.

3. FIND A STATIONER!

Even if you don't have any other information, you can still get in touch. We can work together to clarify some of your thoughts and the details, and I'll create a mood board for your stationery based on your initial vision, your vibe, and the feel you want for your wedding. You’ll even be able to use this to help you with all aspects of your planning.
