A wedding is most often a occasion in which the couple is dressed formally and the bride usually wears white or cream. There is a formal reception, regardless of the number of guests, and the bride and groom follow some of the more traditional wedding traditions such as cake cutting and tossing the bridal bouquet. A traditional wedding usually calls for the guests to dress up and the ceremony and reception are often elegant.

The most important consideration when choosing wedding stationery is the wedding invitation wording. It should complement the classic invitation while delivering all of the necessary details to guests. Many couples choose to use the standard Old English wording when choosing what to write on their DIY wedding stationery. This means spelling out everything; no abbreviations are acceptable. It is also important to choose a font that is as classic in style, as the wedding invitations themselves. This generally means choosing some form of script.

DIY wedding stationery are going to convey to guests that the wedding is going to be a traditional affair and that they should dress appropriately. They will know what to expect from the wedding after receiving a DIY wedding invitation. DIY wedding stationery are classic for a reason and that is because they are beautiful!
