Creating a custom wedding stationery suite tailor-made just for you as a couple is a wonderful way to show people who you are, what you believe in, what kind of day you are planning, your aesthetic and ultimately your passion not only for each other but for life.
What do you want your wedding stationery to say about you? Choose from rich organic textures and materials that combine beautifully to show everyone you love and hold dear to your heart that you are joining together as a union and you want them to share it with you.
Many people hold onto wedding invitations as a keepsake or a memory, once people see your beautiful custom wedding suite it will stay with them as an heirloom and passed down to generations to come, you can also frame your stationery or keep it in a special portfolio.
THE PROCESS
First we talk, discuss and chat through all your thoughts and aspirations.
If you wish, you can refer to my semi-custom collection for ideas or elements you would like to include and we can develop from there. You can also come to me with a completely new thought or idea, and I can begin the creative process. You can also contact me to receive my latest brochure.

EXTRAS
I have a number of beautiful options you can use to enhance your wedding stationery, these are:
HAND DYED RIBBONS
Not only do I hand dye ribbons using plants and natural dyes, I also have a number of preferred suppliers that I use. These ribbons can be used to complete your stationery invitation suite and for vow books, order of services or anything else you may wish to have included. You can also order extra ribbon for your own use, for example; your bouquet, bridesmaid’s hair, your dress and even your table decorations.
WAX SEALS
I have a number of wax seal designs that I can offer you and I can also design and have made for you, your very own personal wax seal. This can be used for envelopes, place cards and is also a beautiful keepsake after your wedding.
TWINE / LINEN / RIBBON WRAP
Complete your wedding suite or event invitation with a lovely twine, linen thread or ribbon wrap – create a wow factor and have your invitations wrapped in style.
VELLUM WRAP
A vellum wrap or cover can be printed, foiled, written on or finished with a wax seal or twine, a wonderful effect where you can just see the invitation sitting under the vellum – you can even have your invitations printed on them with a illustrated or watercolour painting underneath.
WATERCOLOUR ART SERVICES
I love to get out my watercolours and paint venues, flowers, crests in fact anything you would like turned into art to be a part of your special day. A watercolour envelope liner of your venue can be a wonderful way to invite your guests and also a beautiful taster of the beauty of the venue of your wedding.
ILLUSTRATIONS & SKETCHES
Creating special illustrations or sketches is a joy for me, whether it is a venue sketch or a botanical illustration. I will work with you to discuss your ideas and create a number of sketches which can then be scanned into the computer and converted to a vector graphic which can be used in any part of your design, whether for invitations, business branding or for special events.
TIMESCALES
Please allow at least 6-8 weeks for design and delivery of your custom wedding stationery, in some cases where special paper will need to be ordered it can take an extra couple of weeks.
