Last-minute planners (or those planning a year in advance), you really can have it all. And you don't have to go over budget to do it. Match your programs, RSVP cards, wedding menus and more to your holiday theme and customize them all for a fraction of what you'd pay a mail-away printer.
First, start with your theme--is it Christmas? Wintertime in general? Nostalgia? Faith?--and choose your stationery style accordingly.
By downloading templates and creating your own stationery, you'll have saved enough money to have all the stationery pieces you've envisioned for your special day. Choose wedding invitations (of course!), engagement party invitations, save the date postcards, menus and programs.
Current trends state that every piece doesn't have to match exactly (for instance, the RSVP cards and the wedding day menus), but the theme should stay constant. This gives your guests a good feel for your wedding and your style, and also gives you an easy jumping-off point for choosing each piece.
Most of all--have fun with the process. When planning a wedding, we often forget the "fun factor." Yes, you are supposed to have a ball, and make your big day your very own. Take some of the stress away by taking control and indulging your creative side, and you'll be thrilled with the results.
