The LGBTQ+ connection

Print Xpress is LGBTQ+-owned. The fact that every team member designs as well as prints suits couples who want a say in the artwork, since you can discuss wording, layout and paper directly with the people producing it.

Wedding paper

• Invitations and envelopes
• RSVP cards and detail cards
• Save the dates
• Ceremony programs
• Other printed pieces for the event

Planning your stationery

Start with your guest list, since the final count shapes quantities, postage and envelope addressing. Work backward from the wedding: invitations commonly go out six to eight weeks before the date, and save the dates earlier, so allow time for proofs, corrections and printing. Ask to see a printed proof and read every name, date and address aloud before approving anything.

Bring your venue details, your color palette and any wording you want, especially if you want to avoid traditional gendered phrasing. A design team can help you word hosting lines for two grooms, two brides or a family hosting together. Ask about extra envelopes, since addressing mistakes are common. If you want a matching set, plan the ceremony programs, menus and place cards at the same time so the type, colors and paper feel consistent across the day, and confirm when final copy must be supplied.

Metro Detroit
