Perfect Wedding Stationery for any Season
Take advantage of the splendor of the season for your wedding. Each season has its special colors, flowers and patterns. Use these elements to enrich your invitations and the details of your big day.
Your wedding day is more than just a date on a calendar. Your wedding day represents a very special time of year for you, your fiancé and your family. Celebrate that time of year with wedding invitations and stationery that capture your seasonal theme. Nothing is more charming than wedding stationery in the colors and symbols of the season. Your season can add a great deal to the theme, color and style of your your wedding invitations. Picking out just the right accents will add instant charm to your big day.
Spring
Spring is time of renewal and growth, perfect for a luminous, delicate color palate.
For a spring wedding you should pick colors that are light, yet vibrant. Consider borrowing hues from Easter; robin’s egg blue, light pink or light green, lemon yellow and lavender are all fitting.
Spring patterns should be light, too. A delicate pinstripe, seersucker or polka-dot pattern matched with your light spring colors can make a lovely accent for your all your spring stationery. Images of spring flowers and their patterns make a beautiful design for your invitation, reply cards and reception programs.
Flowers that are in season in spring time include tulips, lavender and peonies making your delicate color choices even easier to match to your flower choice.
Summer
Summer can be a popular choice for weddings. Make your big day stand out with an invitation that is both stylish and seasonal. If your wedding is outside, pick garden-fresh colors like purple, red or sunshine yellow as a bright summer accent your décor and stationery. Blue is said to be a calming color and a bright blue is also a good choice for a beach wedding or just to mirror the bright blue sky.
Summer patterns can lean to more the bold side. A damask or toile can add panache and style to your summer wedding stationery. Just about anything that is big and bright will speak to the summer season. While you might not want a ‘stars and stripes’ theme for your July wedding, you might consider a starburst or fireworks image to add sparkle. Don’t be afraid to include elements from your wedding location - beach, garden, etc. into your invitation, program and reply cards.
Summer flowers include snapdragons, roses, delphiniums, columbine and irises; all perfect for a big, bright summer palate.
Autumn
Autumn colors are so rich; you can’t make a bad choice. Bring out the colors of the changing leaves with an orange, yellow or brown accent. Traditionally, autumn is harvest time; think apples, gourds, and sunflowers to highlight the season.
Autumn patterns can be just as rich and vibrant as the colors. Leaf patterns in a variety of configurations from heavy to wispy make the season come alive. You might also consider a cornucopia or luminaria design as a nod to the season.
Pepper your autumn bouquet with gerberas in bright red or orange, yellow Dahlias and Chrysanthemums to compliment the colors of the seasons
Winter
A winter wedding can be magical especially amidst a quiet snowfall. If you’re planning your wedding around the holidays, consider incorporating rich reds and cranberries in your color scheme. Red is said to be a passionate color and will be right at home at your wedding.
Snowflakes make the perfect pattern for any winter wedding. Silver and platinum tones can also add richness to the event. Other symbols of the season – evergreen trees, cranberry branches and poinsettias can all make a beautiful seasonal accent.
Include amaryllis, holly branches and 'Bells of Ireland' for a vibrant winter bouquet.
No matter what season you choose to marry make sure you take advantage of the vibrancy of the season. Use these seasonal colors and patterns on your wedding stationery, thank-you notes and day-to-day stationery and you’ll make a lasting impression on your guests at your wedding and for years to come.
