***The New Zealand Issue*** Your wedding stationer ***The New Zealand Issue*** Your wedding stationery is not just a piece of paper (or a "You've Got Mail!" ping!). It's the first glimpse into the style & mood of your wedding day, and if you're wanting to add a touch of your heritage or love for your home country (say... New Zealand?!), then this is the perfect place to start. ⁠ ⁠ One such example from Riz of @timberwinkstudio is including the blooms of the Pohutukawa tree - "By displaying a vibrant colour and the ability to grow even on rocky ground, Pohutukawa has become a symbol of strength and persistence. It is also known to be one of the most beautiful trees in New Zealand."⁠ ⁠ Riz has put together other New Zealand-inspired stationery ideas for your viewing pleasure, now live on Polka Dot Wisdom.
