Follow these tips for writing your Wedding thank you cards and feel delighted with yourself once they are sent.

• Personalise each card by mentioning the specific gift and how you plan to use it or how much you appreciated it
• Express gratitude, even if your guest did not bring a gift, thank them for their presence and support
• Divide the task of writing, addressing and sending your thank you cards. Sometimes if you have a lot to send the task can be overwhelming. Eivide the task between both partners to make it more manageable
• Have fun - sending out your thank you cards brings back lots of lovely memories from your wedding day so take time to enjoy and remember all the lovely, special moments

21/07/2024

Sending wedding thank you cards is an important gesture to show appreciation to your guests for their presence and gifts. Here are some guidelines for timing:

Sending wedding thank you cards is a lovely way to show your appreciation to your wedding guests for their attendance at your wedding day and for their generosity. If you choose to include a photo, it's also a beautiful way to share the joy from your wedding day.
-
The below guideline gives you an idea of when is appropriate to send your wedding thank you cards:

• For Wedding Gifts Received on or After the Wedding: Aim to send thank you cards within three months after returning from your honeymoon. However, sending them within one month is ideal to ensure timely acknowledgment.

For Destination Weddings: Consider sending thank you cards within two weeks after returning from the wedding, especially if many guests had to travel a long distance.

Which colour silk is your favourite?
-
Have you thought about buying wedding vow booklets for your wedding day? If you haven't here are 3 good reasons why you should:

1. Vow booklets provide a beautiful keepsake that you can cherish for years. They serve as a beautiful reminder of the vows you both exchanged and the promises you made to each other on your wedding day
2. Having your vows written down in a booklet ensures that if you get flustered during your wedding ceremony, your vows will be easy to read, meaning you can avoid the stress of memorising your vows or fumbling with loose papers
3. They make for beautiful photographs, both during the ceremony, in posed photos afterwards and with the finer details photographs of your wedding day. The images of you holding your vow booklets is a beautiful addition to your wedding album

Did you know your wedding save the dates can match your wedding invitation style?
-
Below are my top three reasons to send wedding save the date cards:

1. Formal Announcement: They serve as a formal announcement of your wedding date, allowing your guests to mark their calendars well in advance

2. Consistency in Communication: Starting with save-the-dates sets the tone for your wedding communication and ensures consistency. It also allows you to confirm addresses and contact information early on

3. Avoids Double Booking: By informing guests early, you reduce the risk of your wedding clashing with other significant events in their lives, such as other weddings, vacations, or important family gatherings

Let's talk wedding signs... from small signs for your wedding bar to larger wedding welcome signs and table seating plans. I've got you covered.

Below are some different type of wedding signs to get you thinking...
1. Wedding Welcome Sign - set the tone for the wedding

2. Wedding Venue directional signs - useful for large wedding venues

3. Wedding Seating Charts / Table Plan - guide your wedding guests to their assigned tables. You can get creative here!

4. Menu and Bar Signs - how about 1 wedding menu sign per table instead of a printed menu for each guest? And of course a bar sign to display your favourite cocktails

5. Informational Signs - display the timeline of events to help keep your day on track or how about an unplugged ceremony sign so your guests enjoy your wedding without everybody pointing a phone at you

6. Fun and Decorative Wedding Signs - photo-booth, guest book, cake table

Digital gold ink versus gold foil pressed
-
I often get asked the difference between wedding invitations which are digitally printed using gold ink versus foil pressed wedding invitations.
-
These invitations show the difference and I will explain further
-
Digitally printed invitations can be printed in any colour, including gold. To digitally print an invitation ink is laid down on top of the paper in the desired colour.
-
In this example the couple's names were foil pressed and the rest of the invitation was digitally printed. Oo foil press a design, I custom metal plate is designed, engraved and pressed into each piece of wedding stationery by hand. This method leaves a metallic impression (pushed down) into the invitation so the impression is visible along with the metallic shine from the foil. This provides for a different effect. Foil is restricted to the colour of foil that is used but in saying that there are many many colours and shades available.
-
And yes foil pressing is more expensive, this is due to the fact that a metal plate i engraved and then pressed by hand into each piece of wedding stationery. This is an artisanal method of printing and involves time and skill.
-
Often though the plate used for your wedding invitations (if you have your names foil pressed), can be reused on other pieces of wedding stationery, for example custom wedding napkins or wedding ceremony booklets
