Wedding Timeline; 3 months to go

3 Months to go, your wedding is now so close! You’re nearing the end of the wedding planning process. Hopefully your on schedule, see 4-5 months to go if you think you may have missed a step. For now though the time has finally come to show off a bit and give your guests an insight into the amazing weeding you and your fiance have been busy planning by sending out your invitations. We can help you with addressing your invites but when it comes to guests not RSVP’ing on time we’re afraid your on your own! So read on and print out our detailed checklist to be completed by you and your fiance over the next couple of months, oh and we’ve also included a cool guest book alternative idea this month in the form of our custom thumb-print guest tree. Happy Planning!! x

Send Invitations
Aim to send invitations out eight weeks before the wedding giving guests plenty of time to make arrangements. Also the earlier they receive their invite the earlier they RSVP, allowing you to make the final headcount! Send your envelopes to a calligrapher or make time to write them out yourself.

Wedding Accessories
Wedding Accessories including cake toppers, guest books and ribbon to name a few are the little things that make your wedding unique. From the wedding ceremony to the reception, wedding accessories will make your friends and wedding guests take notice ensuring it’ll be a day to remember. Check out the Pretty as a Picture customised thumb print guest tree, a unique alternative to the guest book. Have guests thumb their print in chalk stamps and sign a message or just their signature on your customised tree. The result a gorgeous piece of art to remember your special day by.

Order Wedding Favours
Favour’s are the perfect way to show your appreciation to guests and ensure they will always remember your special day. Favour ideas include edible favours, charity favours, check out The Alzheimer Society of Ireland’s wedding favour cards, coasters and favour tags to name a few!

Tip: It is a really nice touch to have the design of your favour tags matching the rest of your wedding stationery and they can also be customised with your names and wedding date to make them even more unique. Favour Tags usually include a message to your guests as a whole such as “thanks for celebrating with us” but you could also consider individual messages for close friends and family.

Gifts
Shop for gifts for each other, bridesmaids, parents etc.

Chasseral – Midnight & Periwinkle Blue

We recently had the pleasure of working on a customisation of the Chasseral Design by Smock for Aoife & Colm’s summer wedding in the Amber Springs Hotel in Gorey, Co. Wexford. The bridesmaids dresses were a dark blue so they wanted to incorporate this colour theme into their invitations.
