3 Reason To Hire A Wedding Stationer

Living in a world where DIY, how-to steps are available at the tips of our fingers at a moment’s notice, it’s no wonder couples choose to do certain details of their wedding on their own. And any article you read on how to cut costs during wedding planning inevitably throws wedding stationery at the top of the list. Now, I might be biased because I shoot beautiful flat lays as a part of my job, but your wedding invitations are SO important! They’re more than just a piece of paper with your wedding details on it. They’re the first impression your guests will have of your wedding day. Wedding invitations help set the tone of the day and are one of the few tangible keepsakes you’ll leave your wedding day with! Besides, who doesn’t love to get fancy snail mail?!

I believe you should consider it an investment and you want to get it right! So let’s dive into my top three reasons you should hire a professional stationery designer for your wedding invitations.

1. Quality

They’re experts in their field. Wedding stationers will have access to materials and insight from other vendors that you won’t. They are able to guarantee your invitations are created with the best types of paper, the right envelopes, response cards, color palettes, printing techniques, and more. They are also in the know as far as what each option costs, so they can give you recommendations on what works best within your budget.

2. Experience

Wedding stationers are there to guide you through the process from beginning to end. They’re there to consider all the details of your day and have the experience and skills to bring your vision to life. From fonts to color palettes, to custom calligraphy, to the stationery timeline (when are you supposed to send those save the dates again?), there are many details that go into making and preparing your gorgeous wedding papers. When you hire a professional, you’re paying them for their talent but also their experience. Your wedding stationer makes beautiful designs, but they’re also ready to handle anything else that comes up in the design and printing process.

3. It Saves Time

I remember planning my own wedding. I thought it would be so easy to make invitations from scratch and while I had fun creating them, it came at a cost. MY TIME. I’m a perfectionist so it turned what was a fun idea into a chore I HAD to do. And it took months of dedicated work to do it. One thing on my long list of wedding tasks should not have had so much of my time! It’s easy to become overwhelmed with all you have to plan for a wedding. It’s nice to hire a professional that you can trust to create a beautiful design for your event and will ensure everything comes together perfectly without bogging down your time to do it.

Your wedding planning should fun and joyful, no stress and tears allowed! Your wedding stationer is one more person to help bring your vision to life and keep things stress-free from start to finish for you!!
