The journal
Straight answers from our Fordingbridge studio on choosing a palette, settling on a theme, picking paper and getting your stationery out on time. Everything here reflects what we actually print.
A wedding colour palette usually works best with one dominant colour, one supporting colour and one metallic or neutral. On stationery, the dominant colour carries the design, the supporting colour goes on the envelope, and the metallic appears as foil on names and dates.
