Some of your loved ones may be travelling, so include a list of local accommodation on your invitations and if you have a website, try and include a map. ▲ Your stationery should reflect your personalities. Remember to choose a font that’s easy to read and try not to forget anyone when ordering your invitations as it can be expensive to buy extras. ▲ “Ideally, it would be best to work with suppliers that have been recommended to you. However, at a minimum, I would always suggest that you ask potential stationers to send you samples of their work before booking.” – Emma from Cherished Cards. ▲ “The cost of stationery can vary widely, depending on the type of printing, quantities and supplier. Products that are tailored to you, professionally designed and printed onto luxe paper is always going to cost a premium. Each couple is working to a different budget, so when shortlisting your favourite stationers to contact, you must be sure of their pricing. There’s nothing more disappointing than setting your heart on a particular designer, only to find out later on that their prices are way over your budget!” – Natalie from Flamboyant Invites. www.flam boyantinvites.com www.cherishedcards.co.uk and www.mariamadison.co.uk CONTACT THE EXPERTS: Cherished Cards , www.cherishedcards.co.uk | B ark & Rock , www.barkandrock.com Flamboyant Invites , www.flamboyantinvites.com 69 STATIONERY
