Wedding Stationery Timeline: What to Print and When

Planning a wedding involves dozens of decisions but one that often gets overlooked is the timeline for ordering your printed stationery. 

From save-the-dates to thank you cards, knowing what to print and when can make all the difference in ensuring a smooth, elegant celebration.

At Lauprint, we specialize in custom wedding stationery that fits your vision and timeline. Here's your complete guide to planning your wedding print schedule.


6–12 Months Before the Wedding

Save-the-Dates Let your guests know early. These should go out as soon as you finalize your date and venue.

Recommended: Custom postcards, magnets, or elegant printed cards with your names and wedding details.


4–6 Months Before

Wedding Invitations & RSVP Cards Start designing and printing your main invites. Give guests time to RSVP and plan accordingly.

Bonus Tip: Use matching envelopes and liners to elevate the full experience.

Recommended: Raised Foil, Matte Finish or Raised Spot UV for a luxurious look.


2 Months Before

Programs & Signage Design and print ceremony programs, welcome signs, and directional signage.

Recommended: Folded programs, posters, or flat cards depending on the size of your event.


1 Month Before

Place Cards, Menus, and Table Numbers Add structure and elegance to your reception tables with coordinated materials.

Recommended: Custom menus with foil accents or textured paper to complement your theme.


After the Wedding

Thank You Cards & Photo Keepsakes Send printed thank you cards or custom playing cards with your favorite wedding photo to thank guests for their presence.

Recommended: Matte cards with custom messages or photo decks as keepsakes.


Why Print Matters for Your Big Day

Printed materials offer tactile value and emotional impact that digital simply can’t match. At Lauprint, we help couples tell their story through elegant, customized designs—from first invite to final thank you.
