Cheers to the newly engaged couples of 2024! Did you say "Yes!" over the holidays? Congrats! Now, let's talk wedding stationery trends because, trust us, it's time to make those invitations as unforgettable as your love story. Here are the top 2024 wedding invitation trends that'll have your guests RSVPing with heart-eyed emojis!

You know how everyone's all about personalization? Well, get ready for the next level: storytelling! Sharing your love story throughout your wedding day makes it all the more special, and your wedding stationery presents the perfect opportunity to bring this 2024 wedding trend to life.

To get started, think about your love story—how you met, your favorite activities, and those special moments that define your relationship. Then research a custom wedding stationery designer who has a style you love. A talented stationer can transform your wedding invitations into roadmap of your journey to "I do!"

We love helping couples design wedding invitations that are as unique as their love story. Check out our custom design services to start a beautiful design with us!

Venue illustrations are a classic wedding invitation trend, and guess what? They blend seamlessly with the storytelling trend! Even if a full custom design is a bit out of budget, you can still tell the story of your wedding day with a beautiful illustration. Sprinkle some venue love on your envelope liner, invitation card, programs, signage—basically, everywhere! We love incorporating venue illustrations so much that we made a whole list of ideas for you!

Couples getting married locally are in luck with this trend. Many New Orleans wedding venues have stunning and historic architecture that make epic venue illustrations. And we have a number of New Orleans wedding venues already illustrated. Check out our collection and let your venue shine!

Say hello to gate folds, a new wedding stationery trend for 2024. These beauties are a 10” x 7” card that have two folded panels that open like (surprise!) a gate. Add them as a wrap-around jacket for your stationery cards, or print your wedding information directly on the interior panels!

We love seeing gate cards pop back into style because they make a bold presentation when your guests open the envelope. In fact, opening a gate card is almost like opening a book–or a story–of your wedding day. See what we did there?

Gate folds come in vibrant colors to match your wedding palette. Or if you want to get truly creative, print your venue illustration on them! Finish the look with a wax seal or ribbon for that extra touch of elegance. Cue the oohs and ahhs!

Florals are forever, but for 2024, think small and delicate—a nod to vintage china patterns and the Bridgerton style with a modern twist. This wedding stationery trend is beautiful and timeless and mixes with most wedding styles. Picture small blossoms in pink or blue for a garden wedding, coastal plants for a beachy affair, or warm leaves and poppies for a fall celebration. This style also speaks across generations, so not only with your parents and in-laws love it, but it will remain timeless for years to come.

Blue is having a moment, and we're totally here for it! Light and dusty blues are stealing the show, especially for vintage floral themes. These colors give a light and airy feel to your wedding invitations, especially when paired with bright white, textured paper. Add a blue envelope and or gate card for great compliment. Then finish off your invitation suite with a silver or gold wax seal–talk about a dreamy 2024 wedding invitation suite!

Not sure if these will be the next big thing, but lately, thermography and deckle edges have been popular requests. Thermography is raised ink printing, perfect for elevating your invitations without breaking the bank. Dusty blue thermography ink would be perfect with this year’s wedding invitation trends!

And deckle edges? That's the fancy term for torn edges—trust us, it's a vintage vibe that might just keep trending into 2024!
