2024 Wedding Trends: The Ultimate Guide
What’s trending in the world of weddings? Here’s our predictions for 2024 and beyond.
Planning your dream wedding involves meticulous attention to detail, and your stationery is no exception. In this blog, we’ll delve into four of our favourite trends to help you craft the perfect wedding stationery suite. Get ready to make your wedding stationery sparkle like a diamond ring!
Why is wedding stationery so important, you ask?
Stationery is the ultimate mood-setter for a wedding! The choice of design, colours, and typography can reflect the couple’s personality and the overall style of the wedding. Whether it’s a romantic and elegant affair or a fun and whimsical celebration, it’s an opportunity to have some fun and really impress your guests.
Personalised Wedding Stationery
From the stationery to the venue decor, the menu choices to the music selection, 2024 weddings are set to be more tailored than ever to mirror the couple’s style, interests and relationship.
Luckily for you, ensuring that your celebration stands out from the cookie-cutter format is easy with DIY stationery! Here are a few examples we love.
1. Express your gratitude with handwritten notes to each guest, filled with heartfelt messages, funny stories and thank you’s to make each guest feel extra special. They could be added to the back of Place Names, Menus or on a separate Notecard.
2. Celebrate the love that taught you love, with signage or handouts that highlight key family members and their love stories. Elements that hold specific sentimental value to the couple always make the occasion more emotional and meaningful.
3. Monograms or bespoke illustrations are a wonderful way of adding a personal touch to your stationery suite. We personally love the work of Ofelia Botella, who hand paints one-of-a-kind stationery completely tailored to you.
Interactive Wedding Stationery
To make your wedding truly unique in 2024, it’s all about entertainment! Looking for an easy and affordable way to do that? Gamify your celebrations. From classic lawn games to trivia quizzes, there are endless options to entertain and help break the ice for guests of all ages.
One of our favourite ways to get interactive is through your seating chart. Whilst you can opt for a classic board on an easel, you can also create a unique display with Printed Envelopes! Enclose their table number, plus a personalised message or drink tokens for a fun and thoughtful touch.
Unique Wedding Print Ideas
If you’re reading this, you’re probably aware of the must-have wedding stationery items. From elegant Invitations to beautifully designed Welcome Boards, there are a number of essential prints that play a significant role on the big day. But have you considered some more out-of-the-box ideas? In 2024, we’ll see brides and grooms adding to this list and experimenting with more unique and fun print products! Here are a few examples that we love…
Door Hangers are a fun addition to add to your guests hotel rooms. With more weddings becoming full weekend affairs, it’s important that your guests have some time to relax too!
Looking for a good photo opportunity at your Summer wedding? Say hello to Deck Chairs! Personalise with your wedding logo or ‘Just Married’ text for something truly unique.
Finally, Wedding Coasters are a great way to add a personal touch to your special day. Customise with the couple’s names, wedding date or simply ask your guests to leave a message. These coasters can serve as both practical or decorative keepsakes for your guests!
More Colour and Shapes
Weddings in 2024 are set to be more vibrant, with an abundance of colours, fun shapes, and illustrations taking centre stage. While we love a neutral wedding, vibrant hues and bold patterns are not to be ignored. And if you’re looking for colour inspiration, this years Pantone Colour of The Year is peach!
From circular and scalloped to wavy and arched, we can help you create fun-shaped prints! Sound exciting? We thought it might. We have our standard arched and wavy shapes, or you can go completely bespoke and request a one-of-a-kind shape. We’ve cut out hearts, trees, vinyls records and more!
As we gear up for a year filled with unique 2024 wedding trends, it’s clear that it’s going to be an exciting time for couples planning their big day. The sky’s the limit when it comes to incorporating your personal style, creating engaging experiences for your guests, and experimenting with fun prints.
