As a wedding planner, we know how important it is for you to stay abreast of up and coming trends in each and every aspect of the industry. To make your market research a little easier, here are some hot new trends for wedding stationery that you can expect to see more of in the coming months and year. They're what your well-informed brides will be asking for.
Unexpected New Wedding non-Color: Clear!
Crystal, glass, and diamonds are synonymous with weddings, so why not carry the notion over to your stationery as well? Although it goes with any accent color you can imagine, it is especially powerful with black and jewel tones such as red, hot pink, electric blue, and royal purple.
Vintage and ethnic inspired prints
Vintage patterns go hand in hand with the letterpress rage and add a traditional touch to invitations, while ethnic prints grow in popularity as couples choose to make their weddings more personal. Whether it reflects the heritage of the bride and/ or groom, or just honors a favorite travel destination, it is a classy and subtle way to pay homage to another culture that is significant to the couple. A great pattern from a stationery suite can be carried through to cake, linens, and even lighting, tying the event together from start to finish.
Unique Die-cuts
While die-cut pocket invitations and rounded corners have been popular for several years, we are starting to see more intricate and elaborate die-cuts. Look out for non-traditional shaped pockets like the fan pocket at left, as well as sophisticated corners on layered invitations.
Font- tabulous Designs
In recent years a popular concept has been to print the wedding information in a conservative font and highlight the names of the bride and groom in a more elegant or artistic script. While this trend is still very in style, we will also see it taken one step further with the use of multiple fonts becoming part of the design itself. Bold letters reminiscent of vintage posters and "distressed" fonts will be among the favorites. During a time when everyone is looking for ways to cut back on the budget, this fad allows the budget bride to make a bold statement without the cost of specialty papers and pricey embellishments. Who wouldn't love that?
