With so much focus on invitations and RSVPs, it’s easy to forget about the stationery you’ll need for the wedding day itself. But the right printed pieces help everything run smoothly... and add a stylish finishing touch to your celebration.
Here’s a simple checklist to make sure you’ve got everything covered when it comes to your on-the-day stationery.
1. Order of Service
If you're having a ceremony with readings, music or traditions, an order of service helps guests follow along. It’s also a lovely keepsake for friends and family to take home.
2. Welcome Sign
A welcome sign lets guests know they’re in the right place and sets the tone from the moment they arrive. It can include your names, wedding date and a warm message.
3. Table Plan
For seated receptions, a clear and attractive table plan is a must. Display it at the entrance to your dining area so guests can find their places without confusion.
4. Place Cards
Place cards not only help guests find their seat, but also add a polished touch to each place setting. You can personalise them with names, roles, or even small messages.
5. Table Numbers or Names
Make sure each table is clearly labelled. Whether you’re using numbers or themed names, consistent signage helps guests and staff navigate the room with ease.
6. Menu Cards
If you’re offering a plated meal, printed menus are a nice way to highlight what’s being served. They also double as a conversation starter at the table.
7. Signage for Extras
Consider signs for guestbooks, photo booths, gifts, or favours. Clear and well-designed signs enhance the guest experience while tying your theme together.
Wedding day stationery combines function with style... guiding your guests, complementing your décor, and adding thoughtful detail to your setup. With this checklist, you can be sure nothing’s missed and everything looks just as planned.
