Hottest Trends from the National Stationery Show

I had been waiting all year for the National Stationery Show at the Jacob Javits Center in NYC.  I could not wait to see all of the latest products available and discover the best suppliers out there in order to expand what we offer our clients even more.  Finally, the wait was over in May.  I spent hours walking aisle after aisle visiting the booths of hundreds of stationery vendors.

The overall biggest trend that was very apparent at the show was customization.  No longer will couples settle for cookie cutter invitations.  They want their wedding to be their own unique creation and want their invitations to reflect their personal style.

Some other trends that I discovered at the show were:

Pockets  –   Pocket invitations are a wonderful way to present your invitations to your guests while keeping all of the enclosure cards together in a nice, neat package.  There were some gorgeous options from Marsupial Pouches & Papers which included unique embossed pockets which we are now offering to our clients.

Exotic Papers – There were many companies at the show that offered amazing, unique papers from around the world that we will be proudly offering to our clients.  These included fabulous woven papers that mimic the look of bamboo for tropical destination weddings and butterfly print silk envelopes that would be perfect for Spring bridal showers.

Adorable Customizable Favor Boxes – I was able to preview the brand new favor boxes that are being offered by one of our suppliers, Do It With More Options.  They are all completely customizable and available in 30 colors.
