16 Clever Places to Display Your Monogram (Besides the Invites!)
One of the first decisions you can make as an engaged couple is the design of your official monogram. Usually integrating the initials of your first names, and sometimes including the initial of your last name, this decorative symbol is traditionally used in the wedding stationery. But why stop there? Incorporate your monogram into the rest of the wedding décor and favors to give your celebration a personal touch at every turn. Flowers, accessories, drinks, and cakes can all be adorned with a monogram. By utilizing your custom monogram in the invitations and then again at the wedding, you can create a unified décor theme that brings each element of your nuptials together.
