Handwritten Elegance: The New Trend in Wedding Stationery
Introduction
In the world of modern weddings, where personalization reigns supreme, we're seeing a growing trend that's both unexpected and incredibly sentimental: incorporating the couple's handwriting into their stationery. From save the dates to menus, this unique touch adds a layer of intimacy and intentionality that will leave your guests feeling truly special.
The Rise of Handwritten Stationery
We've been noticing a subtle shift in the wedding stationery landscape. Couples are moving away from generic templates and opting for designs that reflect their individual personalities and love stories. Handwritten elements offer a way to do just that, creating stationery that is both stylish and meaningful.
Yonder Design: A Case Study
Recently, we were inspired by the work of Yonder Design, a boutique graphic design and production firm. They collaborated with a bride to create a custom typography suite using her handwriting, resulting in a stunning and unique design. This project showcased the potential of handwritten elements to elevate wedding stationery to new heights.
This stationery was crafted by Yonder Design and photographed by Lindsey Shorter Weddings.
