Wedding Stationery advice & information on invitations: Beau Riche

Wedding stationery: Scroll down for an awesome selection of wedding invitations and more

It's important to choose the right 'set' of wedding stationery as it is the proclamation of your intended special day. Your wedding invitations should say something
about you and the venue.

Style:
If your outlook is contemporary and you prefer the clean cut and unfrilly (is that a word?) then you most probably will want to avoid the traditional elegant stationery.

Take into consideration the style and venue of the wedding. Is it formal, casual or so laid back that it's horizontal?

If your wedding dress is ivory do you want white invitations?

Are you looking to match everything? Is there an ancillary color that you'd like?

Do you like embellishments? Ribbon etc.

Did you know that there is also a weight consideration? Fine stationers offer a weight from very light to very heavy.

Do you prefer plain envelopes or one with a gold, silver or colored interior and do you want a return address printed on them?

Check out the entire 'set' of your preferred invitation as, if you are going to purchase the matching items listed below, you need to be happy with the size, shape and
design of those too (sometimes one of the other pieces in a range might not be as attractive or not work with your theme).

Script:
When you make your decision on the actual stationery you'll need to consider the font. Edwardian and French scripts are pretty but can be difficult to read especially
for your older guests.

Color: Black, gold and silver are more traditional but there are some great colored inks available but double check if they are okay with the color of your stationery. It
is surprising how some colors blend rather too well into a background color. You need a contrast.

Embossing can raise a card from the realms of mediocrity to being very impressive.

Then the actual wording needs to be decided upon and you will need to check out etiquette - you definitely do not want to upset the apple cart by incorrect
salutations etc.

You can see that wedding stationery requires some in depth thought but once you are confident that your chosen invites are great and exactly what you want, then if
you are ordering on line, ask if you can order a sample of the invitation - just to make sure that they meet all of your expectations. Ask advice from sisters and friends
and please do not forget your mother, keep her in the loop as this is a very special time for her too. You can be independent but still be aware and sensitive to others.
Yes you have a huge responsibility but you can do it.

Don't forget to give yourself time to make quality decisions, keep everything in perspective and always try to view your champagne glass as being half full.
