Signage & Stationery Needs
(as well as a few Customize items to consider)
updated: 08-31-2022
We all know planning a wedding and making sure you don't forget any of those tiny details can be exhausting, but never fear! That is what we do! Signage and Stationery options for weddings are almost endless, but don't let it overwhlem you; most signage is optional. Although, whilst not all signage may necessarily be needed for a wedding day to be successful, it can certainly add a little "je ne sais quoi" to your event. Pick and choose what feels right for your day and put a little personality into it!
Here are a list of common wedding signs as well as common wedding stationery. Often times, they are ordered from the same places, so I figured I should add the lists together. Enjoy browsing!
