Wedding stationery includes all sorts of printed matter involved in a wedding.
Traditionally, a set of formal wedding invitation includes the main invitation, the envelope, and the “Lai-see” envelope. In Chinese tradition, a “Lai-see” is included in the invitation to compensate for transportation costs of getting to the wedding, together with a cake voucher as an alternative form of traditional treats from the bride’s family.
Nowadays wedding stationery also includes save-the-dates, rsvp cards, ceremonial programmes, escort cards, menus and table numbers, etc. depending on individual needs.

Ideally, invitations should be sent 6 to 8 weeks before the wedding to give ample time for guests to clear out their schedule and reply with their availability.
If your wedding happens during peak travel months, a save-the-date could be sent well ahead of the invitation, allowing guests to plan their travel arrangements and mark your big day down on their diaries.

Normally a family receives one set of invitation. A good estimate would be three-fourths of the total number of guests.
We would say as early as possible! A set of wedding stationery tells your story and makes the very first impression of the coming wedding to your guests. As the two of you come up with your personal stationery design, you revisit your story and identify your favourite elements and styles. The wedding invitation then serves as a guide for the rest of your wedding planning process and sets a coherent theme for all the other details involved in your wedding.
So! In other words, the earlier you start, the better your wedding planning experience will be.

A bespoke experience...
Prices start from HK$18,000 for any number up to 250 sets. Costs vary according to the complexity of the design, the number of items,
quantities, paper choices and printing methods. We can work together to fit your budget and I will be able to give you a detailed quotation after our first meeting.
I do letterpress and/or offset along with other printing effects,
but I don't usually recommend digital flat print for the main set... purely due to quality concerns.
The process takes a minimum of 8 weeks from receiving the deposit to delivery to your door.
As we delicately come up with your one of a kind, intimate and unique set of bespoke stationery, we’ve already helped you nail down the styles, the colors, the graphics and the illustrations, all developed and polished just for you! So they can then be used as the overall design direction for any wedding-related collaterals such as venue decorations, flowers, dresses etc. We also provide on-the-day wedding stationery to go with all the details.
While we will go through styles and designs you like, we always work with you to create your own unique design so as to ensure that every design is unique for the couple.
First send me your info and set up an initial meeting with us, where you would tell us your story and show us your style preferences references. From here we will come up with two options for you to choose from. As we decide on a design direction, we go back and forth for two more revisions until we reach the final draft. With the design and the wordings confirmed, your personalized set of stationery will arrive at your doorstep in two weeks. The whole process takes a minimum of 8 weeks.
