I need advice on stationary. I was thinking that I want all my stationary to match (STD, invitations, programs, escort cards, etc..). Is this normal?
Where or Who can do this? I don't mind printing out the programs, menus, escort card, etc. myself, but i would want them to match the invitations. Do people/business sell the paper blank for this stationary to match the invitations and respose cards they print up?
Sorry if this is confusing!

Re: Stationary Advice
I'm having my stationary products made by the same person who made my invites. My place cards and menus will match my invites. Programs will be slightly different. She's a vendor on here: Eleven18 Design Studios. Check her out!

Re: Stationary Advice
The company that designed and printed my wedding invitations also designed the program cover and menu to match our invites but sent me a printable PDF file so that I can print them on my own. It was a 50 dollar design fee but a hell of a lot cheaper than having them design AND print everything.
I think if you ask your wedding invitation company, they should be able to arrange something like that for you -- so that everything matches. I'm the same way I'm a sucker for paper goods!

Re: Stationary Advice
I had someone from Etsy do all of my designing. It was around $100, and she designed my invitations (with a mad lib style response card, direction card, and a logo for the front), menus, programs, seating chart, and table numbers. I also wanted it all to match. She sent me printable files. I ordered the paper from paperandmore.com, and had them printed at Staples.
I sent her a ton of ideas and told her what I was looking for, and we went back and forth until I was IN LOVE with my design.
She also came through when the RSVP labels that I was oriiginally going to use didn't work out. She designed something to match super fast!
I also had an etsy vendor do my hand calligraphy!
Etsy has a ton of vendors that will design for you, or that you can order pre-made designs from. I think most of them are willing to work with you on your other stationary as well...you just have to message them to find out.
Thank you so much everyone! This helps me out so much.
Tara--Thank you for posting pictures. They came out amazing!
