When it comes to wedding stationery, every detail matters—from the texture of the paper to the elegant typography that sets the tone for your celebration. Few understand this better than Deux Amoureux, a Montreal-based design studio dedicated to crafting timeless, romantic, and refined wedding invitations.
Founded by a fellow Montrealer who first fell in love with stationery while designing her own wedding suite, Deux Amoureux has since become a go-to for couples looking to create meaningful and beautifully designed paper goods. In this exclusive interview, we dive into the artistry behind her designs, the inspiration that fuels her creativity, and expert tips for choosing wedding stationery that reflects your love story.
I had the pleasure of asking her about her craft, her inspirations, and her favourite trends in wedding stationery. In this exclusive interview, she shares her insights and expert advice on how to choose stationery that reflects your love story while standing the test of time.
Let’s take a closer look at the magic behind Deux Amoureux’s timeless creations.
What inspired you to create wedding stationery, and how would you describe your style?
It all started while planning my own wedding. As a graphic designer, I really wanted to design my own wedding invitations. I wanted something timeless that reflected our style, the theme, and the ‘vibe’ we envisioned for our special day. I wanted each guest to feel special when they opened their invitations, knowing they were an integral part of our celebration.
I’ll never forget the joy my future husband and I felt as we sent out our invitations and the thrill of receiving RSVPs in return—it was such a meaningful moment!! That’s when I realized I wanted to help others experience that same joy by creating beautiful wedding stationery.
My style is timeless, refined, and romantic. My hope is that my clients can look back on their wedding invitations 20 years from now and still feel the same excitement.
How do you incorporate a couple’s personality and wedding theme into your designs?
My semi-custom collections are thoughtfully designed to offer a complete range of timeless invitations, each with its own distinct style. This allows my clients to choose the design that best reflects their wedding theme and personality.
Every semi-custom invitation suite is fully customizable to suit each couple’s unique taste. I work closely with my clients to tailor every detail—colors, paper types, and embellishments—to ensure the final design perfectly complements their wedding vision.
What trends are you currently loving in wedding stationery?
I’m definitely seeing a rise in vibrant and bold colors this year, and I’m here for it! Neutrals like ivory, white, and greens are always going to be popular, but I love the idea of incorporating an accent color to add a touch of personality!
The wedding world is constantly evolving with new trends emerging every year. While it can be exciting to integrate a fun trend, I believe in creating stationery that will remain beautiful for years to come.
- What’s your favorite design you’ve created, and what makes it special?
It’s honestly so hard to choose—I love all the designs I’ve created and enjoy watching my style evolve over time.
If I had to pick a favorite, it would actually be a product I designed a few years ago: vow books. I created my first set of vow books four years ago during the pandemic, at a time when the wedding industry had come to a complete halt. I wanted to create something meaningful for couples, and these vow books were the result.
Now, vow books have become a cornerstone of my business, and I couldn’t be more proud. It’s truly special for me to think about couples writing their heartfelt promises in something I created.
- What advice do you have for couples when choosing their wedding paper goods?
Choosing your wedding paper goods is an exciting part of the planning process, and my biggest advice is to think of them as an extension of your wedding’s overall style and story. Your invitations are often the first glimpse your guests will have of your celebration, so they should set the tone and give a hint of what’s to come.
Start by prioritizing your must-haves—whether it’s elegant invitations, day-of stationery like menus and seating charts, or personalized details like vow books.
I also recommend working closely with a designer who will guide you through the process and help you customize everything to suit your vision. There are so many details in the world of wedding stationery that couples often aren’t aware of—like paper weights, printing techniques, and embellishments—and it’s always fun to see their excitement when they discover the possibilities.
Finally, my biggest advice is to give yourself plenty of time. Ordering your wedding stationery early ensures you have the time to perfect every detail without added stress.
I use Deux Amoureux's vow books as a welcome gift for my clients and they photograph so well!
How can couples ensure their stationery complements other wedding elements, like photography?
I would say it’s important to think about the big picture. Your wedding stationery doesn’t exist in isolation—it’s part of the overall aesthetic of your day and should align with your venue, floral arrangements, and even the style of your wedding photographer.
Start by sharing your stationery design ideas and colour palette with your photographer. This helps them understand how to incorporate your paper goods into detailed shots, which are such a meaningful part of your wedding album. Elements like wax seals, ribbons, and textured paper can add dimension and beauty to these photos.
And don’t forget about the day-of details! Menus, place cards, and signage are often featured in candid wedding shots, so coordinating these pieces with your overall stationery suite will create a cohesive and polished look throughout your wedding and photography.
