Wedding stationery trends inspired by the fashion industry

An Expert Tip from Lisa Treleaven of Big Orange Designs, a Kitchener-Waterloo invitations & stationery designer

The fashion industry has not only influenced how we shop and dress across the globe, but now more than ever before, easily recognized trademarks are the inspiration behind truly gorgeous, show stopping weddings from the Tiffany box to Chanel...

The famous little blue Tiffany box lends itself to be the muse for invitations (above, left) of that unmistakeable blue colour, accented in white ribbon, simple fonts and tiny clear crystals for added sparkle.

The house of Coco Chanel brings us haute couture designs (right) of contrasting black and white with soft pearl and floral accents representing timeless class and elegance.

Inspiration is all around you, and with the right professionals to guide you along, the things that catch your eye and take your breath away can easily become part of your own trademark wedding!

Big Orange Designs is a custom stationery company owned by two graphic designers who, in recent years, have become wedding service providers for some of the community's most creative brides.
