Did your wedding invitation match your programs, menu cards, etc.?
July 3, 2010
I’m trying to coordinate my accessories. I like the ecru background paper with chocolate brown writing for invitations but my dress, linens will all be in white. So do you think it would be better if any paper (menu cards, etc) at the ceremony/reception is white paper and brown lettering instead of ecru? People usually don’t think back to the invitation at the actual wedding is what I’m thinking.
I guarantee you that not a single person at your wedding will notice. Brides care about those things at least 1,000 times more than the guests do. Pick the stationary you like and don’t give it another moment’s worry.

Don’t worry about the minutia of white paper vs. ecru paper. No one will notice except you. If you like an ecru background, by all means go with it.

I coordinated all of my stationary with a common ribbon – blue satin, closed our invitations, tied our programs, wrapped the menu cards etc. However, I agree that people won’t notice/remember the difference when they are at the wedding, and I think the linens and menu cards should coordinate.

I agree with the answers above me, and I plan on coordinating everything with ribbons that match the overall wedding colors.

my invitation colors and reception colors as well as bridesmaid dresses all match or blend in together. just to keep everything together instead of having a rainbow wedding. but you do what you like and what you feel. if you don’t want to match you don’t have too. most people wont notice or remember
