Using butterflies to decorate your wedding stationery is becoming increasingly popular due to the romantic and relaxing imagery that is associated with the butterfly. Butterflies are some of the most symbolic creatures and because of this they are the perfect way to decorate and embellish your wedding invitations and wedding stationery to gorgeous effect.
In Chinese culture, two butterflies flying together is a symbol of love, and images of two butterflies together are used to symbolise a happy marriage. If you are already considering an oriental theme for your wedding then using butterfly wedding invitations is the perfect way to set the tone. It’s not just oriental themes that suit butterflies, in many cultures butterflies symbolise rebirth into a new life, which is the exact imagery many couples desire for their wedding day.
If you are planing on holding an outdoor wedding, your butterfly wedding theme can be expanded beautifully across your entire wedding stationery range to add a burst of life and creativity – perfect for a summer wedding!
In recent years, more and more couples are choosing black and white wedding invitations to set the tone for their wedding day, and for good reason. The contrast of black and white when used on wedding stationery produces a stylish and sophisticated impression that sets the tone perfectly for a day filled with contemporary luxury and designer elegance. A black and white wedding theme is increasingly popular among younger couples who are hosting a designer chic day for their guests, however black and white can also be used to stunning effect when planning a winter wedding, setting the backdrop for a gorgeous winter wonderland themed wedding.
Alternatively, if you have a specific colour in mind that you want as your main theme, using this colour in conjunction with a black and white backdrop can be really striking and the perfect way to ensure your colour choice is not overwhelming for your guests. Black can often be associated with mourning, especially amongst older generations. Choosing a bright, rich colour to contrast with your black and white setting can totally change the feel of your wedding theme whilst still remaining elegant and striking.
