Get Married at the Pelican Club in Jupiter, Florida

Combine Beautiful Stationery with The Perfect Venue

Planning a wedding can be daunting, and many decisions can affect the overall look and feel of the wedding day. Two of those decisions are the wedding stationery you use and the venue you get married in.

When you are choosing these two items, you are affecting your guests. First, look into what your wedding will be like and carry through on the look and feel, wedding colors, or themes the invitation provided.

Let's take a look at this venue as well as the type of stationery you might choose.

Choosing Wedding Stationery

When planning your wedding, one of the first things a couple does is choose what they want their wedding to look like. What do they envision? What is their dream wedding?

These questions can be answered in many ways, as each couple is different and has a unique vision of their perfect day. However, often these questions are answered by a few simple must-haves, and a wedding is built around those choices.

For instance, a couple may want a specific color theme, have a must-have flower or bouquet design, may want a particular theme (such as a beach wedding) or a more general theme (such as an elegant wedding, a traditional wedding, or a modern wedding), or they may even plan theirs even around flavors, menu items and the like. As I said, this is a unique choice.

However, once a couple makes a few critical decisions, the look and feel of their upcoming nuptials and reception take shape. Once this occurs, it is time to pick out the perfect stationery which reflects their wedding theme, colors, and overall design.

Wedding invitations and all wedding stationery are crucial decisions as this is what the potential guests see first. When they receive wedding invitations with specific colors, embellishments, script or font types, and design elements, it will begin to paint a picture of what to expect on the wedding day.

So, once a couple has an idea for their wedding, they should choose colors and designs that fit the theme.

It is crucial that you match the look and feel of all the different parts of your wedding, including your wedding ceremony, your wedding reception, your wedding stationery, and your flowers and other decorations.

Of course, one of the most important things a bride and groom do earlier in the engagement process is decide their wedding venue. A lot of the wedding planning and décor will be planned around the venue, so it is important to plan early, book the venue and plan accordingly.

Past Wedding Stationery Pelican Club Couples Choose

As The Pelican Club is an upscale and elegant wedding venue, many of our couples have chosen gold or ecru wedding invitations with gold accents. Here are a few of our customer's favorites from past weddings.

• Sophia Champagne Wedding Invitations: The Sophia design is also a beautiful 3-layer wedding invitation. It also has a top layer of ecru, but the middle layer is champagne colored. The bottom layer is ecru, but it only shows as the barest sliver to lighten the thick gold border the second layer created. The ink color is gold diamond. This wedding invitation screams elegance and class with all of the font being a fancy cursive script.
• Elizabeth Gold Wedding Invitations: Another attractive choice is the Elizabeth design. This three-layer wedding invitation is white with a light gold mirri second layer and a final layer of gold. The ink is pure gold-raised ink. The middle layer is a more delicate color making it pop and almost seem 3D. This invitation uses a mix of cursive script fonts, block text fonts of different sizes, and an excellent use of white space to create a crisp and traditional look and feel.
• Grace Wedding Invitations: Although gold is lovely, not everyone loves dark metallic gold, and sometimes, a beautiful design can make an invitation both modern and attractive. This is the case with the Grace design. This is a single-layer invitation, and the color is called latte shimmer. The ink used for the floral design and the wording is gold diamond raised ink. The wording is in a beautiful but simple block font, about 85% surrounded by a gorgeous line flower modern design. This is a wonderful way to bring floral elements into a wedding invitation without the flowers being overstated or taking over the wedding stationery.
