Wedding Stationery

What will be the top wedding trends in 2019?

Destination inspired trends: We are seeing more of our couple host weddings abroad, with smaller guest lists and a focus on the multiple day holiday-like experience. This echoes in their stationery through the incorporation of maps, travel inspired visuals, and even scents or flowers local to the country.

Illustrations: We’re seeing more clients commission hand-illustrated designs of their party venue or venue area, and even use this as a unifying narrative throughout the decor. This can be used throughout the suite, and completely customised to the style that suits the theme of the wedding – for example including watercolour or foiling. 

Although the most popular time of year for a wedding are the summer months (this is when we are the busiest with our wedding stationery), The winter wedding is fast becoming a popular choice for the bride and groom. I used to think that is was because all the wedding venues were booked up years in advance during the summer, but I am starting to see a trend on ceremonies around the Christmas season. Why not combine a wonderful white wedding with the festive months? There is so much scope for decorations, bridal wear, and venues and since we can never rely on the summer weather, it is the perfect opportunity to go all out winter wonderland!

A winter wedding theme has a particular beauty – and it’s one the Cutture design team loves as there are so many creative options.

Winter makes a fantastic back-drop to a ‘story’ wedding invitation, one that features you and aspects of your life, possibly your proposal or a place that’s special to you. A laser cut wintery scene, or the use of gorgeous crisp, frosty whites as a base colour, make a big impact.

Planning a perfect wedding isn’t easy.  Savvy Brides-to-be take care to pick out the best shows with the best exhibitors and the most variety.

When you’re thinking about which wedding shows to visit you don’t want to see the same 10 or 20 exhibitors everywhere you go. You’ll want to have up to 80 stands to choose from, exhibiting everything you could want for your perfect wedding.

Whoop! Events run wedding shows across the East Midlands and North West in beautiful venues. Their shows have up to 80 stands packed with wedding loveliness, great products and fabulous bargains!
