3 Reasons to Opt for Envelope Calligraphy

When I am designing a wedding invitation for couples, my clients have to decide whether to invest in envelope calligraphy or not. It’s important to remember that every couple is different. Some may not be able to prioritize or even want stationery, and that’s totally fine! However, for people who are on the fence about envelope calligraphy, let’s dive into three things to consider before making your decision.

1. Make a Statement with Your Invitations

The envelope is the first thing your guests will see that is related to your wedding. Make it special and memorable with envelope calligraphy! A pretty envelope is a way to ensure your wedding invitation will stand out from the junk mail your guests receive on a daily basis. It will also be sure to make an impact because who doesn’t love seeing their name written so beautifully? In addition, envelope calligraphy will be the perfect finishing touch for the invitation you and your stationer have worked so hard to design.

2. Hand off the Tedious Task to a Professional

There are already so many details that need your attention in the wedding planning process. Prioritize the ones that you personally need to handle and let others take care of the rest. Addressing invitations can be stressful. You only have a certain number of envelopes. Making everything look centred and pretty isn’t easy. The envelope could be difficult to write on. And there are so many more factors that need to be considered in a simple envelope addressing project. Let a professional take that stress off your plate because this what we have trained and practiced for. Not only that, but working with a calligrapher will also ensure that only tried and tested, good quality materials are used.

3. Round out Your Invitation Flat Lay

The invitation flat lay is almost a prerequisite these days when it comes to wedding pictures. Photographers work so hard to ensure that every detail of your wedding day is captured. This includes your wedding invitations! As a calligrapher, I always include 2 complimentary envelopes with faux addresses for my clients. One is a keepsake for the couple and the other is for the photographer. That way your photographer can be sure to capture the full invitation suite without having to worry about privacy issues.
