In the Details: Map it Out

I remember when I saw the first wedding maps.   I loved the idea and thought they were beautiful, but it wasn't really a key piece of stationery that you had to have.   It's amazing how in such a short time the wedding map is a valued part of the stationery suite. 

They are used to direct guest to various locations over a weekend wedding  or to helping guest navigate city streets from ceremony to reception. What I love is the beautiful artistry mixed with pretty calligraphy that allows an added bit of personality to your wedding stationery.  While you can keep it simple or go ornate. A wedding map shouldn't compromise function for style.

 
 

Usually when you see a wedding map it's for a destination wedding, but why not incorporate a map into your save the date or to serve as an added visual to written directions. 

Whether you're having a wedding close to home or making it a destination, think about including a wedding map into your stationery suite.  It is more than just another pretty piece of stationery.
