WEDDING INVITATION TIMELINE

Planning a wedding is stressful enough without worrying about when things need to be ordered.
Here's what you need to know
arrow left
1.
9-12 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDING
Sample pack

Order a sample pack when you start planning
your wedding so you can see different paper and
print type and choose your favourites. Feel the
quality and start to plan your ideal wedding
stationery suite

2.
8 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDING
Save the Date

Get your guests excited about the upcoming wedding
from the very beginning with a save the date they'll
be stoked to stick on the fridge. Match the rest of
your stationery suite, or create a standalone design.

3.
4-6 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDING
Wedding Invitation

Your wedding invitation suite is the main event when
it comes to your stationery. Usually you'll want the
wedding invitation itself, RSVP cards, and other
cards like gift information, accommodation details
or directions.

4.
SEND 1 MONTH BEFORE EACH EVENT
Pre Wedding events

Whether you're having a family kitchen tea or raging
bachelor and bachelorette parties, these events can
be just as memorable as the wedding itself. Order the
invites with plenty of time to send them out at least a month in advance.

5.
1-2 MONTHS BEFORE THE WEDDING
On the Day stationery

Your wedding day stationery plays as much a role as
your venue or decor in creating the aesthetic of the
event. Think programs, signs, place cards, seating
charts, table numbers and menus

6.
UP TO 3 MONTHS AFTER WEDDING
Thank you cards

Thank you cards should be sent within three months
of the wedding, but many people choose to order
them when they order the rest of their stationery
suite so they can fill them out as gifts arrive.
