Congratulations!  You’re engaged!

Now what?

Weddings are a blissful time full of love, family and cheerful, lifelong memories. They also involve months of stressful planning and require a heavy dose of etiquette. Your wedding invitations and stationery should be fun and stress-free. It’s not only an important element of your wedding, but it also sets the tone for your affair.

Start checking items off your list as soon as you’ve secured a wedding date, ceremony site and reception location.  Keep in mind that it can take several weeks for the proofing and printing process, and don’t forget to allow yourself ample time to address and mail your announcements and invitations.
