Here are 6 tips for writing a great thank you card to your guests!

❤️ Send handwritten thank you cards.
Almost everything we do these days is digital, so there’s something extra special about receiving an old-fashioned handwritten letter in the post!

❤️ Choose your stationery carefully.
You don’t want to write your wedding thank you cards with a blue office pen on plain printer paper. (We know you would never!) Pick up a set of your favorite thank you cards and pick up a set of special (or at least comfortable) pens.

❤️ Decide on the appropriate greeting.
Choose which greeting to use (hello, hi, dear, etc.) and, while this may seem obvious, but be sure to spell the guest’s name right. You should tailor your greeting to suit the guest you’re writing to. If they’re a close friend you can use “Hello” or “Hi,” but “Dear” is more formal.

❤️ Refer to their gift.
If they’ve given you a gift, refer to the specific gift and how you’re using it and loving it. When you’re thanking someone for a monetary gift, don’t mention the amount, but do mention how you plan to spend it, ie. on your honeymoon or to go toward your new house.

❤️ Keep it short and sweet.
Your message doesn’t have to be long to be meaningful, so keep it concise and close your message with an appropriate sign off. This will depend on who you’re writing to. “With love” is most appropriate for your closest relatives and friends. “Thank you again” is appropriate for anyone else, but you should choose whatever feels right!

❤️ Sign your names.
Similar to your greeting and closing lines, you can decide how you want to sign your names based on who you’re writing to. For close friends and family, you can simply sign your first names. For everyone else, use your full names, which will be a fun novelty if you’ve just taken your spouse’s last name!

I hope you found this helpful. Happy thank you card writing!

Finally, let's talk colours! 🎉

You may be able to order your invitations in a wide variety of colours. While a lot of shops only offer white and off-white options, others are able to print on a wide range of bright colours. This would depend on the shop and the type of materials they use, so it’s usually best to speak with your designer or preview the options before committing — especially if you have a specific look in mind.

Do you have a dream colour in mind for your invites? We would love to hear below!

This may or may not be something you’ve given a lot of thought to yet...

And that is the what your invitations are made of.

They can range in anything from a standard matte cardstock to 100% cotton to even something like solid acrylic blocks. Each having its own style and mood 💕

That said, each type of material has its limitations when it comes to printing techniques.

For example, letterpress (This is where your design is etched onto a printing plate and then inked and pressed onto your paper) usually uses cotton card to achieve the pillowy impression it’s known for, but it’s rare to find hot foil on cotton.

On the other hand, you’re likely to only be able to use something like thermography or etching on solid acrylic.

🤔 If you're unsure of what would be best for your invites, let's chat. For years, I’ve told people that I create “paper goods from the heart,” and nothing makes me happier than seeing your heart full because you adore your wedding stationery.

I would like to share some insight on the paper options for wedding stationery!

When it comes to your wedding stationery and, really, any special event invitations, there are a lot of printing options to consider 💕

First, you have your 4 major printing techniques, then you’ve got your actual paper selections, your envelopes and, of course, any design treatments.

The “weight” of your paper or card is essentially how thick it is. Typically, thicker feels (and is) more expensive and higher-end✨ where lighter papers feel cheaper. That said, each printing technique has its limitations on how light or heavy your invitations can be.

Paper weight can also be super confusing because each type of paper (text weight, cardstock, etc) each have their own basis weights, so you will see an 80lb text weight and an 80lb cardstock weight, even though they are nowhere close to the same thickness ✨ Because of this, I recommend comparing paper stock using the “gsm” measurement where possible, as it’s standardized across paper types and categories.

I personally use a 300gsm (or 110lb) card for my invitations. I find this works best with my foil stamping machine, offers a beautiful impression and gives a high-end feel to the completed suite. I hope this helps when dreaming up your ideal wedding invitation suite!

Next, I'll share some insight on choosing the material and colours! 🙌

Keep this in mind...

Your wedding is definitely about you and your partner and celebrating the love you share ❤️ But an event is nothing without the guests. In fact, what makes your event special and memorable is the experience you create for your guests, rather than the one you design for yourself.

When you celebrate with them, its not just about you but your village and loved ones too. When it comes time to plan your celebration, you want to be sure to extend gratitude, love, and joy to your guests and make the day one they fondly remember as well 💕

So, if you want to give your guests a great experience, think about what you can do that will make them feel special — starting with your invitation ✨ At first thought, paper wedding invitations might seem like an outdated expenditure, but they provide a tactile touchpoint and sensory delight that digital invites just can’t do justice.

In a world of screens and simplified steps, they’re the extra effort and intentional thought everyone deserves.

We’re here to help design a day your guests wont forget. Trust us, your guests will receive your invitation and immediately anticipate what you have in store for your wedding day.

3 reasons to consider using custom signage on your big day:

✨It showcases your personality✨
Your wedding is all about you, and its important for any couple to find all the opportunities they can to add a personal touch to their wedding! Wedding signage can be customized in a variety of ways to showcase your personality. Are you a humorous couple? Insert a quote or a line on your signage. Think about what has a special meaning to you as a couple, and write down a list of ideas you might want to share with your guests

✨Provides helpful wedding information.✨
Customized signage is more than just a piece of beautiful decor at a wedding- they also provide helpful information details to your guests. It'll give guests an idea of what they can expect during your wedding and where to go. Direct them through you ceremony and reception with table numbers, welcome signs, directions, and seating arrangements. Choose whatever information may be the most important for your guests to enjoy the celebration of your big day!

✨Enhances your wedding theme.✨
Custom signage is the perfect way to enhance the overall theme of your wedding, incorporate different colors, floral accents, texture and other decor elements from your wedding into your signage. If youre unsure how you want to design yours, it may be helpful to look at pinterest or weddings you've attended in the past! Signage can take some time but it'll help tie your wedding together and create a cohesive theme.
