Wedding season is nearing so it's best to start your planning, giving yourself plenty of time to get organized and to keep track of all the processes when it comes to your wedding stationery.

I know that there are many steps to the process and many pieces to keep in mind when thinking of your wedding stationery. There are save the dates, invitations, enclosures, menus, programs and thank you cards etc. It can get overwhelming. So I’ve put together this wedding stationery timeline that will hopefully make it easier for you to plan your wedding stationery. A couple of big questions I always get are ‘When do I send everything out?’ and ‘What do I write on my wedding invitation?’ So, I’m excited to share this fabulous and fun timeline that you should totally print out and keep in your back pocket. How helpful is that?!

Next week: invitation wording tips, I'll tackle the ‘What do I write on my wedding invitation?’!

Wedding Stationery Timeline

Please head over to Jonathan David's site to see more stunning work capturing my clients Jena's and Ryan's amazing wedding in Sydney, Australia.

I had the pleasure of working  mostly with Ryan in organizing samples for him and Jena to preview. They had chosen the Tree with birds and Initials design. I loved their colour choices, and was happy that they went with some bold and gorgeous colours for this design.

Ryan was in Dubai at this time, and the wedding was in Australia. So it was all about organization and making sure that samples, proofs and finally their order was done in a timely manner as they both had family and friends coming to their wedding from around the world. To ensure this, the job had to be completed way ahead of their wedding date and had to be shipped earlier than the typical 3 month delivery time frame.

Here's a snapshot of their invite, and again please check out their big day on Jonathan's site, he's one talented photographer and has also captured their day ever so beautifully! If you're an Aussie Bride to be, I highly recommend you check out his amazing portfolio!
