Handmade Wedding Stationery Our Top Tips For Do It Yourself

Creating your own unique wedding stationery has generally been left to the experts, finding perfect card stock and then purchasing all the material for decorating the wedding invitations could at times be extremely hard work.

Making the insert look professional was the most challenging part; many DIY wedding invitations looked well as if they were DIY, not well finished and rough around the edges. After a lot of thought we decided to have a search for some do it yourself wedding stationery to see if it had improved with technology always moving forward.

We started on the internet, there is a huge amount of businesses offering their services to design and produce your wedding stationery for you, we also found companies who offer pre-printed mass produced stationery, unfortunately it was not unique and did not have the personal touch we were looking for.

We then at last found the solution we had been soul searching for, a company called Syntego had 11 ranges of stunning card stock and all the ranges came with matching quality inserts (to print ourselves) and even matching envelopes!! How excited we were!!

You can find them at syntego-co-uk once there you can type in your post code to find your nearest stockist. Ok so what range to choose, we opted for the Ruby Red range, which I have to say is definitely one of the most amazing cards I have ever seen,the ruby red is a deep pure red that changes colour in the light and shimmers, we couldnt help but be drawn to this range, you have to look at the stationery to understand the quality. We didn't want a normal looking invitation and once again Syntego came up trumps, they have produced "invitation Pockets" which are one of the classiest invitations we have ever seen.

Step one:
Take the paper inserts out of the packet and place them in your printer in-tray.

Step two:
Log on to specialdaytemplates-co-uk click on the product, then click on who the invitation is from, we selected from the bride and groom. We couldn't believe our eyes, there it was all ready done with the right print parameters set up and the text all ready laid out in the correct format.
All we had to do was change the words to the ones we wanted and we picked a different type face.

Step Three:
Attach the insert to the backing board, again dead simple we used a small piece of ribbon that was one of the wedding colours and tied it into a simple bow, then simply slid the insert into the pocket.

Step Four:
Admire your truly personal stunning invitation.

If you were scared of DIY wedding stationery we recommend you give Syntego a go, as their slogan says...

"It's your day, do it your way"
