Why is UK wedding stationery so creative?

Posted on March 16th, 2010 by Sylvie


I would like to share a few hot impressions on our way back from the National Wedding Show in Birmingham, a good excuse to come to the UK and meet Stefania as well as the ideal chance to feel the atmosphere of what a wedding show in the UK is like.

We have been impressed by most of the wedding stationery exhibitors – we couldn’t stop observing their stand details, their set up and their decoration; the great design and style choices hanging on the walls led us to the conclusion that UK providers simply do it better than anyone else and unless you decide to go for diy invitations, you definitely should choose UK wedding stationary – either you get married in the UK or abroad!

Quality, Design and Creativity are the only words I would use to describe what we came across at the show!

We loved the full range of products offered: paper and colours (one provider came to us with a pallet of at least 200 different colour scheme possibilities), designs and styles (traditional or funny thanks to creative brides and grooms designs), shapes and sizes of invitations and envelopes which were offered.

We loved the pocketfold style invitations which have nice internal pockets perfect for RSVP cards, gifts lists, venue directions indications as well, and whatever you are happy to communicate your guests before the Day!

A special thanks to Lisa from Lovingly Made Company who showed us her new and really fresh collection of bespoke stationery; they had a hard time during the Birmingham exhibition as their stand was right besides a soprano music stand, who was singing all the time…Oh goodness! Their website is worth a visit – with no loud music in the ears!
