The write stuff
| Q | How can we add a personal touch to our stationery? |
| A | Nathan Morris says: Using handwritten calligraphy will add a personal touch for you and those attending your special day. Calligraphy is a traditional art form that offers elegance and individuality that is difficult to replicate via printing. Begin by researching and looking at your stationer's previous work, and have conversations with them to discuss what you want for your day, such as your theme or colours and any styles of writing that you like. The on-the-day stationery can include name cards, table plans, table numbers, menus, thank you cards, a welcome board and much more. All of these can be made personal, from the type of paper used to the background and ink colour, the style of writing and decorative flourishes. |

Treasured memories
| Q | What stationery trends will be popular in 2023? |
| A | Nicol Meazzini says: A big trend we see continuing into 2023 is the gifting of cards and stationery from the bride to the bridesmaids. It's such a special day, and asking those you love most to be a part of it should be celebrated and remembered. Though paired back, classic tones are still a huge trend in wedding stationery but we are finding more people are asking for greeting cards which feature colour and vibrancy. Another trend we see continuing are wedding cards that can be kept and cherished as a reminder of the wonderful celebration long after it has passed. Instead of popping them in a memory box and putting them to one side, they can be kept out on the shelf and admired for years to come. Our 'Keepsakes' wedding card is a luxurious hand-painted 3D structure, perfect for those who are not buying a present but would still love to gift something super special. |
