Booking & Working with a Custom Wedding Stationer

When it comes to booking and working with a wedding stationer on your wedding invitations, it's important to follow some best practices to ensure a smooth process. Here are some key tips to keep in mind:

1. Start early: Wedding invitations should be sent out at least 4-6 months before your wedding date, so it's important to start the process early. This will give you enough time to work with your stationer, make changes, and ensure the invitations are printed and sent out in plenty of time.

2. Set a budget: Wedding invitations and paper can become pricey when luxury print methods and cardstock are added. This will help you narrow down your options and avoid overspending. Be sure to include postage, envelopes, and any additional stationery items in your budget.

3. Know your style: It's helpful to have an idea of the style and design you're looking for before you start working with a wedding stationer. This can be a mood board, images, or specific colors and fonts you prefer. This will help you communicate your vision and ensure your stationer understands what you're looking for.

4. Be clear about your timeline: Make sure you and your stationer are clear on your timeline and any deadlines. This will help ensure everything runs smoothly and that you receive your invitations on time.

5. Communicate clearly: Good communication is key when working with a wedding stationer. Be clear about your needs, your budget, and your timeline. This will help ensure your stationer understands your vision and can deliver what you're looking for.
