How to plan your Wedding Stationery
Sourcing invitations and deciding on a style can be done well before the time to order.
Sources include wedding boutiques, online vendors and/or word-of-mouth printing sources.
All our customers for wedding invitations came to us by word-of-mouth. We have a fairly narrow niche: handmade, imported cotton rag invitations with deckled edges. However, we are a POD shop, so we print on other papers at special request. During the pandemic, and the summer following, imported paper was almost impossible to acquire. So out of necessity we sourced ecological recycled or tree free American papers. The high demand on these types of papers is high.
So our advice is this: order your invitations as soon as possible, whether your engagement is a year or 2 months long. The time to begin searching for sources and choosing designs is when you meet “the one.”
We are just as disappointed as prospective clients when we have to say, “We are so sorry, but we cannot print invitations in your timeframe.”
Because cotton rag is a soft, elegant paper made from real cotton fibers. It has imperfections and bits of fiber that work loose and the deckled edges shed easily. This requires extreme care when printing, feeding it through the printer one at a time. The printer gets cranky about too much lint or extra long sessions of printing. It requires a coffee break every 50 cards!
So now you know. Your handmade paper invitations are more special than you thought!
But, oh, do we love them!
