Noah & Fin, 20.06.26, Cromlix House

 

Noah and Fin got married in June at Cromlix House. They were looking for classic, elegant stationery which reflected the two of them.

I created a bespoke monogram which featured throughout along with a hand painted venue illustration, complemented by a green colour scheme.

Scottish touches were also incorporated with a Fraser tartan envelope liner and hand painted thistle.

Their on the day stationery reflected their delicious menus with illustrated food and signature cocktails.

What a wonderful weekend they had!

Tips for ordering stationery

It’s been a busy few weeks so I thought I would share a few tips for ordering your wedding stationery.

• You need one invitation per household, not per guest

• Order a sample, it’s much easier to see the quality of materials in real life than on a screen (see below)

• Check the proof several times then ask a friend or relative to double check too

• Post your invites second class rather than first as it’s a saving of £0.80 per invite (and they don’t take much longer!)

• Put on a date for people to reply by (ideally a month after they went out)

• Create a wedding email address for replies and wedmin

• Don’t leave it to the last minute!
