A couple’s wedding day is often considered the happiest day of their lives and no less can
be said about the wedding of a celebrity. However, being in the public eye means it also
becomes one of the most important. The eyes of the world are transfixed on what the bride
is wearing, the decor of the ceremony and the food that is served.

Just as important is the wedding invitation, the introduction to the whole occasion, which has to set the tone as to the theme of the day. Perhaps for this reason, it is a popular choice to incorporate a custom design into the wedding stationery to celebrate the individuality of their matrimony. American TV personality Khloe Kardashian and actress Salma Hayek both opted for a vintage damask print for their wedding menus, giving their weddings a touch of class and sophistication, whilst actor Jason Priestley announced his Bahamian wedding with a palm tree print, showing that their wedding was going to be something different, something a bit more exotic than traditional weddings.

Similarly, the use of monograms has proved a popular choice for celebrity couples in recent
times. American idol star Katharine McPhee chose a green ‘C’ monogram to commemorate
marrying Nick Cokas. Model Coco Rocha wed interior designer James Conran on June 9th
and chose a romantic monogram of both their initials atop their invitations to announce the
wedding.

ananya recognises the importance of keeping your big day individual to you and your
partner, so their range of wedding stationery can be tailored to suit your needs, with custom
prints to coincide with the ceremony and monograms to celebrate the joining of two people.
And if you don’t want to stop with just the wedding invitations, then take a leaf out of Jason
Mesnick and Molly Malaney’s book. The stars of American reality show ‘The Bachelor’
continued the custom print from their handmade invitations onto the envelope liner, adding
that extra special touch to their day.
