The welcome bag

Elevate your welcome goodies carrier by placing your monogram on it. This one looks like a classy signature brand.

The wedding cake

Now here comes another classic. Give a copy of your monogram to your wedding cake maker a few weeks before the big day so they can incorporate it seamlessly into your wedding cake design.

The desserts

Seal your sweets with your monogram for an added touch of elegance. These ones are adorned with delectable and very edible chocolate in an eye-popping metallic shade.

The décor

Be playful with your monogram and turn it into a DIY project. This one’s easy: just have your united initials printed on a cardboard, tie a thin cloth or a ribbon on both sides and attach fresh flowers before hanging it on the aisle chairs.

The table napkins

Table napkins don’t always have to be plain white. Personalize yours by stamping them with  – guess what? Yes, your monogram! The only downside is that your guests may find them a little too pretty to use!

The bouquets

The smallest details make a wedding even more special and personal. Sew your monogram using a contrasting thread colour on the ribbon holding together your bouquets for some additional charm.

The bomboniere

Send your guests off with a token of your appreciation adorned with your monogram. Yep, print it up as a tag or as monogrammed stickers and attach it to your wedding favours.

The signage

Show off your personality by turning something you both love into monogrammed signage. This one fits perfectly at the drinks table.

The dance floor

Finally, dance the night away with a dance floor that’s lit up with your united initials!
