Do This, Not That: Wedding Stationery Edition

Share

Let’s be real—wedding planning is a wild mix of excitement, Pinterest boards, and just a touch of chaos. But your wedding stationery and signage? It doesn’t have to be stressful.

Here are 5 quick do’s and don’ts to help you stay on track—and how we at Inktricate Designs make the entire process smooth, stress-free, and actually fun 👇


✅ DO: Start With a Clear Vision

Before you order a single envelope, think about the vibe of your day. Is it timeless and elegant? Whimsical and boho? Bold and modern?

We’ll help you bring that vision to life—starting with a free design consult where we chat about your theme, colors, and must-haves. From there, we create custom concepts that reflect your unique style.


❌ DON’T: Procrastinate on Timing

This is the one area where fashionably late is not cute. Stationery and signage take time to design, print, and perfect.

Here’s our quick timing guide:

  • Save-the-Dates: Send 10-12 months out

  • Invitations: 8–10 months out

  • Day-of Items- 6-8 months out

  • Thank You Cards- Order with your day of stationery!

We’ll help you build a timeline and keep you on track, so you’re not scrambling at the last minute.


✅ DO: Add Personal Touches

From custom monograms and wax seals to hand-illustrated venue maps or even your pet’s silhouette—we’ll design stationery that feels like you. Not cookie-cutter templates, but thoughtful, personal pieces that tell your love story.


❌ DON’T: Forget the Details

Your wedding invite is beautiful—but if it’s missing the RSVP info or venue address, your guests are going to be very confused.

We make sure everything is triple-checked—from the layout to the wording, so nothing slips through the cracks. We even help with etiquette if you’re unsure how to word things.


✅ DO: Match Your Stationery & Signage

Cohesion = magic. When your welcome sign, seating chart, table numbers, and menus all match your invites, the whole day flows beautifully—and it looks amazing in photos.

At Inktricate Designs, we design all of these elements together so your signage and stationery feel seamless and intentional.
