When you think Wedding Stationery, many of us think exclusively about wedding invitations - but there's so much more to wedding stationery than just invitations! Think Save-the-Date Cards, Wedding Ceremony Programs, Place Cards, Menus, Thank You Cards and even Seating Charts.

Generally posted out to your guests 6-8 weeks before your wedding, wedding invitations can be posted earlier if you want to ensure your guests are well prepared. Save-the-Date stationery is great for this purpose! They can be sent earlier than the actual invitation to give your guests the heads up.

Here we've chosen a few of our favourite designs from 10 leading wedding stationery suppliers in Australia. Imagaine your guests excitement on receiving any one of these beautifully designed invitations in the mail!

Hand Made By Jules

"Many couples today prefer to send unique and beautiful wedding invitations, with some Wow factor!" Says Jules from Hand Made By Jules, "A beautiful invitation will have your guests feeling honoured and excited to be attending your wedding."

As well as being a lovely keepsake for your guests, there are lots of benefits in choosing Handmade Invitations. See Jules list below:

  • They are unique and designed especially for you - reflecting your style and personality.
  • Wordings can be tailored to suit your individual needs.
  • They can be personalised with the inclusion of guest names, which helps to avoid any anxiety or confusion about who is invited. There is often anxiety about not inviting children so this helps, and together with additional guest information you can politely advise your guests of any other relevant information.
  • Pockets are ideal and can hold a number of cards - eg., guest information, wishing well, RSVP and each of these can be designed to suit your needs - the inclusion of floral images or decorative lines really makes a feature out of the pockets.
  • You are not limited to the same guest information being printed for all your guests - you can modify the guest info to suit the guests too.
  • Many venues have limited parking so there seems to be an increasing need to advise your guests where they may park, or that you have arranged bus transportation, with designated pick up points.
  • No order is too big or too small, and a few extra's may be ordered at any time.

The Stationery Boutique

As a boutique invitation house, The Stationery Boutique has been around over 100 years, printing a century's worth of celebrations, from the biggest occasions to the smallest. The styles may be different, but the desire to make a wedding truly special is still the same.

"We've found the current trends include the use of Australian flora and botanical elements, as well as the introduction of translucent cards & paper with torn edges. Along with these bright and colourful styles, we have also seen an increase in requests for simple and classic designs, often with the inclusion of a wreath and/or initials, which has never really gone out of style. We have also seen the old world charm of letterpressing become fashionable again. It's been lovely to see our 1920's Heidelberg machine being used more frequently."

"We have also found the importance of finishing touches for invitations has grown over the years, with the most popular requests for wax seals and ribbon to add texture and elegance to a suite."

Heart of Juno Designs

"There are so many options out there now when it comes to Wedding Stationery - Gold foil, letterpress, embellishments, laser cut, hand delivered by a dove. It can be overwhelming. But it doesn't have to be!" says Erin from Heart of Juno Designs.

"First and foremost, stick to the budget you have allowed. Secondly, you can still have beautiful invitations & co without the flashy bits. Maybe you'd like a professionally designed invite - but you want to email it out. Perhaps you'd like to DIY absolutely everything. That's cool too" she says, "but think back to all the times you've received something that looks beautiful in the mail. So much fun, right?! It's the tiny details that your guests will appreciate."
