When I talk about wedding invitations, which I do,

When I talk about wedding invitations, which I do, a lot, obvs, I find myself answering the same questions over and over again.

.

As we head towards the end of another year, I thought it was high time to put together a collection of those questions (and answers!) but in a bit of a fun way.

.

So here it is. My A to Z of everything you ever need you know about wedding invitations. Enjoy! The link is in my bio

"All the bells of the tills of the town shall ring for our wedding..."

I have a beaut of a wedding on my blog this week. Chris & Emily's wonderful Welsh wedding stationery.
.
Bilingual elements, a literary/book theme, some stunning bespoke artwork created by a good friend of the bride, and a generous sprinkling of Dylan Thomas quotes.
.
Do go and have a read. I enjoyed working on this sooooo much and have been itching to share it with you all. The link is in my bio.

Spring wedding?
Yes, I know you're knee deep in baubles and tinsel right now, but if you're tying the knot in the first half of next year NOW is the time to be getting your invites sorted.
.
I still have a few appointments available for consultations before Christmas, either in my Cardiff studio or via Zoom. If you want to have a chat, get yourself booked in (the link is in by bio). If you order with me before Christmas, you can expect to have your invitations early in the new year.
.
PS, As well a my recycled card & plantable seed paper, I can now print onto this gorgeous torn edge handmade paper. Lush isn't it? Let me know if you'd like prices.

So there's frost on the ground and I've had a chocolate reindeer for breakfast, it must be December!
.
As we head into the last (and probably busiest) month of 2023, here's your checklist to keep you on track with planning your wedding stationery this month.
.
🗓 Save the date for December 2024 and all 2025 weddings
➡️ you can send them up to 2 years in advance, as soon your date & venue are booked you're good to go
.
💌 Invitations for weddings from April to July 2024
➡️ aim to send them between 4 & 8 months before the big day, which means you need to order them between 6 & 10 months before
.
💒 Ceremony & reception stationery for weddings in December 2023, and January & February 2024
➡️ all those bits like your table plan, place cards, confetti bags and welcome signs
.
✍️ Thank you cards if you tied the knot already this year
➡️ a personal, handwritten note is a must!
.
📲 Don't forget, you can download my ultimate guide to what stationery you need along with a really useful timeline for free. It's on the link in my bio, or scan the QR code.

🌈Splash of colour🌈
Gotta be honest, the short days and general greyness around this time of year are not my favourite.
So, here's a bit of colour to brighten up an otherwise slightly dull Monday.
Enjoy! 😀
