Q – Do you have any ideas of how we can incorporate Valentine’s Day into our stationery?

"You design will depend on the overall style and aesthetic of your wedding. Here are some ideas to you get started:

"If your day will be overflowing with roses and littered with heart confetti, then opt for a stationery suite complete with luxury envelope liners, illustrated with extravagant watercoloured roses and deep red envelopes. Finish off with a glamorous gold foiler monogram of your initials.

"Alternatively, if you’re after something quirky, then why not go for pastel-coloured invitations? Each dainty card can be laser cut into the shape of a heart, paired with a soft san serif typeface that resembles the iconic Love Hearts sweets.

"Sometimes less is more. Take things back to basics with a crisp ivory card stock and elegant typography. When the design is this minimal, you should pay extra attention to the wording. I would include a romantic poem or try writing your own. The personal touches it what makes it extra special.

"The possibilities are endless, so now is the time to get pinning on your mood board. The more inspiration you can gather, the better! With the help of a stationer, you’ll be able to create the perfect stationery suite."

What seems to stand out is not a complete rejection of convention, but rather a rebalancing and reassessment of value. 59% of women say their preference still leans towards traditional ready-made ring designs, and only 11% want an entirely custom-made piece But the emotional drive behind preferences and purchasing decisions does appear to be changing with 30% expressing a desire for rings that carry additional meaning through small modifications, engravings or design adjustments.
