So wedding season is just around the corner, and the level of detailing young couples are going into to put their stamp {literally} on their wedding paraphernalia is literally blowing my mind. From customised Bisleri water bottles, to customised stamps and seals, coasters, and all sorts of stationery - Indian weddings have just gone to a whole new level of cool. These are what we spotted at the recent weddings we attended!
Personalised Paper Napkins |Need a tissue with your Mojito, or to put that appetiser on? Well… you can personalise that paper. Put your logo on it, your initials, or better yet - put a different line on each tissue paper, signifying love! Kind of like a fortune cookie - guests pick one up and see what line they end up with.
Where: Party Anthem, an online store that has every possible option to personalise your next event. Right from customised paper napkins to pens, from mugs to folders {if you want your name on something}, these guys are the people to contact. Visit their website here, to get in touch with them and view their range of work
Wrapping Paper |Whether you are gifting the bride or groom's family, or preparing pamper packages for your bridesmaids, a lot of brides are doing it in style with personalised wrapping paper. You can get paper printed with your photos, logos, or anything that holds a special meaning or means something to you.
Where: Disha Mehta runs Customising Creativity - one of India's best known invitation boutiques. But her creativity doesn’t stop at invites - her signatures include some stunning customised wrapping paper, gift tags, and sagan envelopes, Click here, to view her Facebook page and to get in touch with her.
Coasters |Want to add a bit of fun to your sangeet? Couples are getting coasters with their names, or even photos printed on them. Cute idea I spotted - interactive coasters asking guests for advice for date nights.
Where: Confettish, a cutesy little store that started as a Facebook shop before branching into a full fledged website. Their signature products include customised coasters, customised luggage tags, the best quality personalised t-shirts I have found on the web, bridal badges, and lots more. Their products even come wrapped in super cute packaging, with a personal note. Click here, to view their Facebook page and to get in touch with them.
Hangers and Personalised Stamps |New must-have accessory for every bride: The “Mrs.Xyz” hanger! While we think this is the next million dollar business idea in India, you can for the moment get these made at Etsy, and have them shipped to you. One bride even got her local carpenter in India to make them; after all… all it needs is a soldering iron and a regular hanger. While the rubber stamp fixation hasn't made its way to India yet, I just know this will be the next big thing when it comes to wedding stationery. Rubber stamps with the bride and groom's face to stamp all over their wedding paraphernalia! Way cute!

DJ Request Cards |Ever had to yell over loud sangeet music to give the DJ a song request? Well, these awesomely cool DJ request cards can help you out! A little post card with your logo and name, and a few lines for people to accommodate the name of the song they wish to request.
Where: Confettish.
Personalised cushions for your Mehendi and t shirts for your Bachelorette |These cutesy cushions were for a bride's mehendi {the idea is to have these surrounding the bridal jhoola}; and tee’s for the bride and her bridal party made for a fun bachelorette outing!
Where: Extra's-Invites 'n' More is another small store run by a young girl. I love the cute customised cushions made by Extra’s, and the custom made newspapers; even chocolate wrappers are customised. Click here, to follow her on Facebook, view her work and get in touch.
Personalised Food Containers |Serving popcorn or chaat at the wedding? Well get those customised as well, like this bride and groom did for their wedding.
Where: Extra's- Invites 'n' More and Confettish
