Make Your Wedding Invitation Envelopes Truly Luxurious
When designing your save the dates or wedding invitations don’t overlook the envelopes. They’re more than just a protective cover, they act as an extension of your wedding stationery design, elevating your entire stationery suite and setting the tone before your guests even open the card. A beautifully considered envelope gives the first glimpse into the style, atmosphere, and feeling of your day, building anticipation and adding a sense of occasion. With just a few thoughtful details, your envelopes can transform your save the dates or wedding invitations into a luxurious, memorable, and truly show-stopping first impression of your wedding.

Add the Perfect Finishing Touch with Envelope Printing
Custom envelope printing is a simple yet impactful way to elevate your wedding stationery. Not only does it create a polished and professional finish, it also saves you from hand-writing a mountain of addresses, something that can be time-consuming and frustrating if you make a mistake and don’t have spare envelopes.
One important thing to consider is your envelope colour. If you choose a darker shade, like navy, forest green, or burgundy, you’ll need white or metallic ink for the addresses. Without printing, you’d have to source a white or silver pen and write them by hand. Choosing professionally printed white ink is a far easier (and far more elegant) solution, ensuring your envelopes look cohesive, stylish, and flawlessly finished.
Printed envelopes are designed to coordinate beautifully with your invitation suite, making them the perfect finishing touch that brings everything together while also making your life so much easier.
Beautiful & Practical Envelope Stickers or Wax Seals
Envelope stickers are a versatile and practical way to seal your invitations while adding a pretty finishing touch. Designed to coordinate with your wedding invitation design, they create a cohesive and stylish look for your envelopes.
For something even more luxurious, handmade wax seals add texture and elegance, elevating your envelopes to a whole new level. Available in any colour imaginable and customisable with your initials, a symbol or a coordinating element from your invitation design, wax seals instantly make your envelopes feel unique and sophisticated. This tactile detail gives your guests an exciting first glimpse of your wedding style while elevating the overall presentation of your stationery suite.
Both stickers and wax seals also make sealing multiple envelopes easier, saving you time and avoiding the need to lick or wet each one individually.
Add a Pretty Surprise with Envelope Liners
Envelope liners are an easy yet impactful way to make your invitations feel truly special. Choose from vibrant florals, subtle patterns, or even a photograph of you both—they’re designed to complement or match your wedding invitation design. Liners elevate your envelopes from functional to stunning, adding a little delightful surprise for your guests.
If you’re ordering envelope liners, I always recommend pairing them with stickers or wax seals. This allows you to seal just the tip of the envelope, encouraging your guests to open it from the correct spot rather than tearing from the top and damaging the liner inside!
Don’t forget your stamps!
The final finishing flourish to your envelopes, especially for any you’re not hand-delivering, is your choice of postage stamps. Whether it’s the colour that doesn’t quite match your aesthetic, or the side profile of our King just isn’t quite hitting the mark, why not swap out the classic first or second-class stamps for some Royal Mail special issue designs? You could pick a current collection that resonates with you as a couple, or opt for my personal favourite the Flower Collection, which I even used on my own wedding invitations! The right stamps add that extra touch of personality, style and consideration, making every envelope feel special before your guests even open it.
Ordering Your Wedding Invitation Envelopes
Don’t treat envelopes for your save the dates, wedding invitations or thank you cards as an afterthought. With the right finishing touches, they’re not just packaging, they’re part of the magic of your wedding stationery. They set the stage for your celebration, showing your guests that every detail of your wedding day has been considered with care.
