Wedding stationery FAQ´s

Wedding stationery FAQ´s

I often receive questions regarding wedding stationery etiquette and time-schedules. Wording, addressing customs and other matters are important to know before you start planning. Here I collected some of the most frequently asked questions and my answers to them. The etiquette might differ in your country, so it´s better to check first. I hope these answers will be helpful to you. If you have any other question, let me know. I´m happy to help. 🙂 1. When to send out Save-the-Dates to guests? Save-the-Dates are usually sent 6 months before the wedding day. In case of a destination wedding, it can be 6-12 months before the day. 2. When to… Keep Reading

Seaside Love | Styled photoshoot | Organic Calligraphy

I can´t believe how fast time flies! It´s been almost a year since I first heard about the idea of this project, but it feels like it was only a few weeks ago. Now, more than 5 months after the shoot I´m so glad to see Jere Satamo´s beautiful images published in Hochzeitsguide! It really takes time for good things to happen. 😉 It was last December, when Saara from Pukuni and Satu from Aino told me about the photoshoot. I just started Willow visuals, so the opportunity to be part of this collaboration was more than an honour to me! The main concept revolved around the story of an intimate wedding… Keep Reading

Delivery day

Delivery day

Handing over the final prints of invitation suites to my clients feels a little bit like giving gifts during Christmas time. I like preparing the package nicely, pack the cards in little piles, wrap them in tissue papers. Why not simply putting everything in a cardboard box? Because of “that moment”. I know that for many couples, receiving their wedding invitations is a special, “things are getting real” -kind of a moment. Cards are ready to be sent, envelopes are ready to be addressed, names are written next to each other telling that the couple is getting married. Unwrapping is part of the experience and I think it´s more fun and… Keep Reading

Creative ideas for table settings

Creative ideas for table settings

Image: Style Me Pretty One of the best part of wedding decoration is the table setting. I love every bit of it, the cutlery, the tablecloth, the candles and the gorgeous flowers. It´s like all the creative work you invested into the wedding planning is right there at one place. In this post I collected some of my favourite ideas for table settings. Name tags / seating cards Playing around with place card ideas is fun and it can be a great DIY-project. Writing the names of your guests one by one might take a little bit longer time, but it definitely gives a personal touch for the set-up. If… Keep Reading

Advantages of a wedding website

Advantages of a wedding website

Today I take a little break from papers and talk about a solution that can complement printed material for your wedding. It´s wedding websites. Even though, I´m now endorsing something that is a cost-saving substitution of what I do for a living, I believe that these websites are so helpful, that it would be silly to ignore them. I can start with my own experience. When H & I started organising our own destination wedding, we quickly had to face reality: it´s an immense work to put every detail together. We wanted to keep things simple, yet the more we talked about the wedding, the longer the “things to consider”-list… Keep Reading

Invitation design inspiration

Invitation design inspiration

“Organic “- inspiration (Pictures: Alexandra Grecco Bridal, Style Me Pretty, Pinterest, Oncewed, Pinterest, Style Me Pretty, Stephanie Fishwick) Finding inspiration is maybe the most challenging part of designing your invites. Wedding blogs, magazines and Pinterest are for sure very helpful. On the other hand, the more you check, the more you like and the more you like, the harder the choice is. 😉 So, as my second post in the “wedding papers”-topic, I collected some tips for you about inspiration, ideas and themes. Hopefully they help you kick-off the project. The theme of the wedding Probably you are in the easiest position if you already have a wedding theme in mind…. Keep Reading

Where to start with your invitations?

Where to start with your invitations?

(Pictures: Just My Type ) Let´s start from the beginning: Congratulations! 🙂 You are preparing for one of the most profound and beautiful experiences of your lives surrounded by your beloved ones. You have the date, booked the dream-venue and probably you have started the search for The Gown. So it is very soon time to think about the invitations. But actually, where to start? What are the elements of the stationery suite? Honestly I would say that there are no exact rules or right answers to this question. Every wedding is different, so every suite will be different. However, it usually includes a primary invitation asking your guests to… Keep Reading
