\"Wedding<\/p>\n

A bride works with wedding stationery designers at Dodeline to design the perfect invitation suite.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

In the meantime, let\u2019s discuss options for personalizing even the tiniest details of your wedding paper goods.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span>1. The Envelope<\/span><\/p>\n

The first thing your guests will see is the envelope in their mailbox.\u00a0 One of the simplest ways to personalize it is to select one of your wedding colors as the envelope.\u00a0 A colored envelope will certainly stand out amongst all the boring junk mail and bills!<\/span><\/p>\n

Another thing to consider is asking your wedding stationery designer to create a custom monogram or crest and having it printed over the top of your return address on the back flap of the envelope.\u00a0 It\u2019s a tiny detail that shows thoughtfulness and personalization.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. The Liner<\/span><\/p>\n

Some people prefer to stick with a more traditional white or ivory envelope for the wedding invitation.\u00a0 Whether you go with a colorful envelope or not, a liner is the perfect spot for showing off your personality.\u00a0 This is another place you\u2019ll be very glad you hire an expert to show you how to design wedding stationery as they will be able to create just about anything you want!<\/span><\/p>\n

The liner could feature a custom monogram, a pattern from your reception d\u00e9cor, artwork of your venue or destination, and so many more options.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. The Invitation<\/span><\/p>\n

You can never go wrong with traditional wording, but for some couples it might not feel right.\u00a0 So you could choose to personalize the wording in a way that\u2019s special and unique.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. The Reply Card<\/span><\/p>\n

Typically, a reply card reads \u201caccepts with pleasure\u201d and \u201cdeclines with regret.\u201d\u00a0 However, you can always have fun with personalizing the options.\u00a0 You might choose to ask for song requests, favorite memories with the couple, where guests are staying, and more.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

At one point, mad lib RSVPs and even the \u201cbell controversy\u201d were quite popular for response cards.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Pictured below are response cards that stray a bit from the normal \u201cKindly Reply\u201d wording.<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

5. The Details<\/span><\/p>\n

At the end of the day, your wedding paper <\/span>goods will be highly personalized<\/span><\/a> because no two weddings are alike.\u00a0 This is especially true with how to design wedding stationery that includes a details card.\u00a0 It could include other events, hotels, transportation, suggestions on things to do, and so many more combinations of information.<\/span><\/p>\n

Again, if you and your wedding stationery designer chose to be more traditional with the rest of the suite, the details card could be the perfect place to let loose a bit.\u00a0 A custom map or fun icons might be the perfect way to personalize your paper goods further.<\/span><\/p>\n
