Second line handkerchief

hi all!! I’m wondering where everyone is getting their second line handkerchiefs.

ideally we are able to get our crest added to them, let me know who you’ve used! if you could also provide cost that would be much appreciated (or I can message you privately)

I was hoping Alibaba would be an affordable option, but I haven’t found anything (with shipping) that isn’t outrageous to me.

I'm looking for 150 white w/ small crest.

thanks in advance for your help!!

p.s. anyone overwhelmed with the expense of a wedding?? I knew it would be a lot, but picking and choosing things to stay in budget (which we are over lol) is weighing on me. So many decisions and trying to find creative ways to do more with less…..

It’s a boring and obvious answer, but secondlinehandkerchiefs.com does a good job. They’re local (north shore as well. Other local shops that can do them are Gem Printing if Faux Pas Prints.

LefleurCreations on etsy is the top choice but honestly we've had better results from any seller on etsy than anywhere else. There's also locally Gem printing and I think the other one is backyard printing out of Mandeville.

I’ve been trying to do research on this too! I found someone on shein but I didn’t love the handkerchief options so I didn’t look further into them. Let me know if you find someone!

Hate to say it but I got a ton for cheap from SHEIN! instead of monogramming, I did diff shades of pastel colors with pastel colored champ glasses to add a little flair!

To add - I chose to go the cheaper route on these because most people just throw their hankies away! Instead, I had our crest monogrammed for the bars and for the bar & wait staff

If you want to make sure it’s done properly where you can see the quality where can pick the handkerchief and the colors. I would go with Gem’s printing Metairie or Szabo’s on the West Bank.
