Couture Invitations and Stationery Suites - Wedding Studio Partner Feature

There is one thing most stationers can agree on: it is never too early to start shopping for your invitations. Start collecting invitation ideas, visual inspiration, and creating a look for your stationery suite as soon as you get engaged. This process will not only help you decide on invitations, but drive your color choices, linen options, bridesmaids dresses, floral arrangements and so much more.

Your overall vision or theme for your wedding will be shared with guests when they receive the ‘save the date.'  It can then be incorporated into your 'Stationery Suite'.  A complete Stationery Suite would include:

• save the date cards
• invitations 
• ceremony programs
• guest sign in cards
• escort cards 
• table numbers
• place cards
• food descriptions
• menu cards
• thank you cards

Working with your stationery provider and wedding designer together they can help you continue the theme into various décor elements. For example, with the peacock invitations, there are dozens of linen options and combinations we can use for guest tables and accent tables to bring in the vibrant blues, greens and purples.  There are elegant and effortless ways to bring in the peacock feather as an accent on your table - part of the favor, placed in your floral centerpiece or simply adding it to the bow on your chair.  Creative ideas for creating a personalized wedding day and wedding invitation are endless.  Always contact an expert for options and feasibility of your vision and leave it to us to make it come to life!

Clayton Opera House - Brittney & Eric

So I just received a text message from my bride this weekend.

"Hey Shannon. We haven't stopped smiling from our big day! You made our day perfect. It was beautiful...thanks again :)

Brittney and Eric were AMAZING to work with at the Clayton Opera House. A multi-level event using the stage, main floor and event space we were able to give guests a surprise every room they turned into.

Now, I must say, it was the first wedding I have managed onsite that seemed easy...right?!! Well lets back up...not claiming it was and I was not running around with a high pony tail and a bottle of water attached to my hip tracking down the groomsmen in either the balcony, stage, foyer, hallway basement or behind stage. There were a lot of places those guys could hide! But for the first time, I realized...I can do this, I am getting the hang of every aspect of a wedding...and I smiled at that moment. I tell ya, I haven't stopped smiling.

Not only do I owe this wave of calmness to our wonderful The Events Company staff who carried 170 chivari chairs up 3 flights of stairs and rolled 3 dozen tables from back stage, so I didn't have to, but I have to thank the stunning and grateful bride and groom. Without them and their equally as genuine family, this wedding would not have been as grand as it was.

People danced the night away for 5 hours....straight and kept going! Which is such a indication of how close and fun this family was.

I can honestly say, I hope Brittney and Eric remain friends of mine for a lifetime, the world needs more people like them.

Now back to planning the next one!!
