May 2013 Weddings

Talk to me about monograms...

I want to have a monogram stamp created so that I can use them in different areas like favors, napkins, and I want to paint the monogram on the aisle runner, etc. However (and I forgot this part), the monogram I designed has his full last name. I know its "technically" incorrect because it has his last name and its not supposed to be used until after the actual ceremony, but we really like how it looks. Do you think its that big of a deal and I should fix the monogram  or is it just one of those things that we just shouldn't do but doesnt really matter (like seeing the bride in her dress before the wedding, etc).

  • I don't think it matters at all.  I've seen plenty of people us their monogram at the ceremony.

  • I don't think it's a big deal. Go for it. I have a thing for skeleton keys and had one made with our monogram at the top. I'm using it for everything.

  • I don't think there's anything wrong with it.  I'm planning on having a monogram necklace made with my new initials to wear at the reception.

  • I dont think there's anything wrong with it either.  My shoes (my siggy) have my new initials on them.
