Best Practices

• •Develop a Brand Voice Guide: Create a document outlining the key characteristics of your brand's tone (e.g., elegant, helpful, traditional yet approachable, value-conscious), including approved vocabulary, phrases to avoid, and examples of on-brand copy. This ensures everyone writing for the brand is aligned.
• •Prioritize "Elegant Simplicity": While showcasing luxury and elegance, ensure the language remains clear, accessible, and easy for busy couples to understand. Avoid overly complex jargon. The focus should be on beauty and ease.
• •Emphasize Support and Expertise: Consistently weave in messages about the availability of customer support, free samples, and the wealth of experience the company possesses. This reinforces the brand as a helpful partner.
• •Balance "Luxury" with "Value": When highlighting the quality and exclusivity of designs, also subtly integrate the "direct" and "competitive pricing" aspects. This appeals to couples who want beautiful stationery without overspending. Phrases like "affordable luxury" or "elegance within reach" can be effective.
• •Be Wedding-Centric and Celebratory: All copy should revolve around the joy and significance of a wedding. Use positive, romantic, and celebratory language that resonates with couples during this special time. Focus on how the products contribute to making their day perfect and memorable.

Social Perception

Positive: Generally, customers appreciate the reasonable prices, good quality, and prompt delivery. The brand has a high Trustpilot score mentioned in some articles. Reliable Supplier: They are perceived as an established and leading online retailer for wedding stationery in the UK. Resourceful: Seen as a source of helpful wedding planning information and a wide variety of products. Occasional Issues: Some negative reviews mention specific order problems, but the company has policies in place to address these.
